SWEEEEET! That should make things much easier.

Wish I could get one, maybe next year.

Nice ride!
I traded my road bike in for the same thing, will be nice to have some transportation on the ice now. :)

I'm hoping to add the windshield and front bumper someday. How much did that rear seat set ya back?

Nice score! My next big purchase is definitely going to be an atv. A quad with good tire chains is where its at.

My brother picked up that exact same one this last spring Shienar. Seems like when ever I stop over, he's adding something new for ice fishing. His lastest is a Hummingbird 597 with ram mount. That GPS mapping is amazing...

Shienar,

Very nice quad.  Smart getting the windshield.
The "golden" is a good choice to.  Mine tended to steal other peoples fish.
Stay safe  ....    Tom
