Finally got the new RZR out of the garage for our first ride today!:yahoo: You still couldnt knock the smile off my face with a 2×4!!! 🙂
I have been adding new stuff and making changes since the day we got it home 8 weeks ago or so, but have not driven it more than few hundred feet or so backing in and out of garage until today.
I just wanted to get a few miles on it to get the first service done so it was just a few hour trip. Adjusted the shocks along the way. The ride was AMAZING compared to the atv’s we used to have.
I used this as a break in for the new Gates belt also took it to the dealer on the way home with a total of 70 miles on the machine. They changed fluid in front and rear diff, changed oil & filter and inspected the rest. Everything looked good. This was my idea to have it done this early, not the dealers, it’s just how I am 🙂 The next trip we will be putting on more miles as its a 3 day trip and I wanted all the fluids changed prior to this.
This is our first side x side after 2 previous atv’s and I was somewhat nervous after reading about some of the problems people have been having with their new machines. I am happy to say there were no vibrations, strange noises or anything that caused me any concern. We were both kind of worried that after spending so much money on the machine that we would not be happy with something, but we were both thrilled!
My wife and I were bummed when we got back and wished we could have gone more, but were pressed for time to drive to the dealer and the 2 hour trip home. It was not the most exciting trail system, just the closest that would allow me to get some miles on, but we still had fun.
I still have a few more things to change and add before our next trip June, but it’s getting there. I will make a separate post in a week or so with pictures of the new machine and mods.
