I am way too crazy to have one of those things.

But it looks good.

That would be my choice too. I have a 2004 Polaris Predator with a bunch of power mods. Can't forget the Nitrous. I would recommend a nice quality DOT approved helmet.

Don't know if there are many dunes up that way, but if you get the chance throw some paddles on it and launch some sand. That bike was made to climb!

You need to tighten up your chain, Nick.

I got it muddy kinda yesterday, as the fields were wet and i "HAD" to go hose it down, and get it clean again. I rode it more today for about two hours total and i couldn't be more satisfied with it, it's awesome. It has some dirt on it now, where the tires has thrown it. I kinda think it looks better, just a little dirty, like it's been ridden. The rain ran me in now or else i'd be out there. Gotta get some action pics! This hoss can pull the wheels up in third on flat ground just accelerating, ride it through fourth and the beginning of fifth. I got to stretch it's legs a little bit and WOW is all i can say. I wouldn't want to go this fast on two wheels!

This was a long time ago and right now a loose chain is the least of my worries. Last weekend at my Enduro I broke the shaft that comes out of the engine that holds the gear shifter, Flat tire, Destroied my rear sprocket, Got to close to a tree and ripped of my side pannel off and ripped off my negative wire. Had to get a tree branch and tire it around the batt to keep it in.


Yikes!

Nice Toy Kris
I had a 660 same color them things are unstopable I drove mine down in a creek once went off a ledge up over the handle bars drove out the other side it spit an sputtered 4 about 10 mins getting all the water out then back 2 riding ..
One mod i did you might want 2 think about is take off the factory grab bar in the back and make one out of steel and a little bit longer maybe an inch or 2 then its like a wheelie bar you can pull it up just about anywhere and it will ride on the bar without standing up on you

I'm not into doing the vertical wheelies. I prefer doing the ones with this with the torque that will just pull it up in fourth without even pulling on the bars. Just lean back and braaappp. Hence my title. Damn, there needs to be a new thing like RMS. Raptor Modification Syndrome, cause damn, after a few hours of bluetraxx.com, i have RMS.
