Just lost my mind
« on: Dec 13, 2020, 10:15 PM »
Well I went crazy today and bought a 2019 Polaris xp900 ranger, only 705 miles.  I always have buying remorse and fear.  It has front and rear windows, roof, winch but no doors or heater.  I plan on doors and a heater add on. some day.

I am turning 69 tomorrow and it was a happy birthday me.  I have to admit the cold is not quite as much fun as it was even 2 years ago. Excuses, excuses, excuses my wife said.  So are their any things I should watch for on this machine?

My sad has a 2017 I believe. It has heat and doors. You’ll want it Ole!!!

The only real weakness we’ve found is the stock tires. Kind of goes with everything you buy lately. The fronts will just lose their bead if you hit something just right. On the ice it shouldn’t be too bad but if all of the sudden you go from a full tire to a flat, just try and fill it. Sometimes some rotation is necessary. Keep the air pressure on the upper end as well. My dad likes to keep low air pressure for a better ride but better chance of blowing that bead.

A machine on the ice opens up so much water. You'll love it. Tight Lines this year!

I have a Yamaha Viking with full cab and heater. You'll like that option.
It seems to go from zero to hero all some have to do is lie.
