Wonderboy Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 So I picked up 2 2011 Polaris Sportsman 550xp's. The green one is mine and the red is for my old lady. We got upgraded bumpers, wheels, and winchs. Cant wait to ride!!! Here is a pic on the showroom floor. http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff241/mx3onfalkens/2011-04-19_18-35-22_243.jpg Here is the front end before the bumper and winch. http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff241/mx3onfalkens/2011-04-19_18-35-53_188.jpg This one is mine right after I got them home. Check out the nice beefy rear bumper. http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff241/mx3onfalkens/2011-04-22_18-54-07_269.jpg This is hers. http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff241/mx3onfalkens/2011-04-22_18-54-23_748.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokin5s Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 awesome buy! It looks like you live in a subdivision, where are you planning on riding at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex L. Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 You should let me ride a wheelie on one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWW$HEEET Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 You should not let a guy named igor ride them. He will destroy your garage doors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonderboy Posted April 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 awesome buy! It looks like you live in a subdivision, where are you planning on riding at? My girls family has just under 100 acres about 10 minutes from our house. Thats where I went riding last week which is what got me hooked. Ive taken a couple laps around the block so far which is all I can do until I can afford a trailer to transport them to and from her families property. Were also planning a trip to wayne and my boss is going to take us on a trip to somewhere in west virginia to ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRAWDAD Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 not sure about your bumpers, but the stock ones fold up pretty easy. don't use them to pull with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonderboy Posted April 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 not sure about your bumpers, but the stock ones fold up pretty easy. don't use them to pull with. They have nice tow hooks on the front and back so that shouldn't be an issue. The front bumper is extremely solid but, the rear is a little on the weak side as far as how it mounts.

Bam Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 Sweetness, I've wanted one for awhile myself, just made it hard to justify around here. Even better for you since you've got anytime access around the corner, get some pics getting dirty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 So what made you go with a big old tank of a Polaris? Figured you'd have more fun on a sport quad, plan on owning a farm or spending all your time in a mudhole? Just picking on you, you'll have fun anyways.

I just thought these were a simple and fairly safe way to learn how to ride and we plan on starting to do some camping and stuff so the ability for storage is nice. I don't know much about atv's but, these things move out pretty damn good. I've already been looking for bolt ons and power commander.
