 Well, the first trip to Hopkinton-Everett OHRV Trail System was nothing less than 100% fun and testing the quads was a total success! Shoutout to @the.real.sportsman for making it happen! 

 On arrival the parking lot was empty, the day was beautiful, and the bikes ran strong! There was plenty of nature to be absorbed and we were even fortunate enough to spot some deer. 

 The @yamayahoo77 Grizzly is passing all tests with flying colors. I really couldn't be happier with the results from the mods, including EHS Racing EFI controller, EHS Racing air intake upgrade/modification, EHS Racing airbox lid and Barker's Performance Exhaust slip-on exhaust. Dude, my bike runs PROPERLY now! The Grizz is running cooler, stronger and has a much more linear thumb-throttle which feels absolutely incredible!

 We are excited about making new trail riding videos, etc, and have started a Trailwarriors.Life Youtube channel! Check out the vid from the last run out to end the day at Hopkinton-Everett Trail System...

All mods finished as of 08.22.2022, new wheels 'n tires mounted, even the 9-series spark plug is in! My Grizz finally runs properly, and she's really git'n a look of her own! THANK YOU to @the.real.sportsman / @trailwarriors.life Garage and EHS Racing and Barker's Performance Exhaust!!

 Hi, guys! My nephew did it!! He got his sweet 2019 Polaris Sportsman 850sp after an even longer drive than myself. All the way to central Vermont and back, and here we are......White Lightning!  

  Just got This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. 2019 Polaris Sportsman 850sp

  We will be putting the bikes through the paces and testing both this winter and recording results, any repairs or mods   made, and the general overall thoughts on them. Stay tuned!

  New wheels, tires and Heat Demon Quad Zone heated grips & heated thumb-throttle on the way...

 The KFI TigerTail is here! Yayyy!! Ok, so we got the mount, the TigerTail and the ball-hitch adapter. Wow! Let's just say.....HIGH QUALITY.

 Everything arrived from KFI Products quickly and safely, with no damage and no B.S. After inspection and readying some tools, the install was a breeze. Because I decided to go a little "tighter" in, up-against the rear storage box, some extra elbow-grease was necessary to make the pin slide through. 

 The TigerTail was originally mounted differently, with 4 bolts on the mounting plate, but this lowered the hitch ball a bit too far, so the install was reconfigured and the unit mounted using only 2 bolts. Much better, much cleaner!

 I also ended-up buying another hitch ball...one with a shorter shank, and that really helped clean up the install as well.

 Being very particular about my builds and how everything comes together with the overall look, I knew I had to mix-it-up a bit and make it my own by painting my winch & tow hooks a safety-type of orange. Really makes the outfit pop!

 The last piece of the puzzle? Of course,...the Grizzly hitch-ball cover from CIPA. Once it was seen, it had to be had! Anyway, this seemed like the perfect "cherry on top" for this particular install. You can find hitch ball covers online, and I found my Grizzly bear version at Summit Racing HERE.

 I honestly couldn't be happier with the KFI TigerTail! It is considered an excellent addition to my Grizzly and wouldn't want to go without it. Fortunately, I have only had to use it once so far,......uh-hum, Polaris? :D

 trailwarriors.net HIGHLY recommends KFI Products and the KFI TigerTail towing system!

  The first time I saw my '19 Grizzly 700 in real life!!

  Well, after a 2 hour drive in the uHaul box truck, I found my dream bike and was able to come to deal and make it happen. Had to drive to Connecticut for her!

  I am feeling like I don't even want to mention the dealer down there, due to lack of positive experience, maybe it's better to just omit it. Sometimes I wonder how a cash-paying customer can be so over-looked...it felt like a lot of people were hanging around on the phones and not showing much interest in C-A-S-H. Poor bastards!

  Anyway, after a ridiculous showdown with the woman behind the desk and the "owner" allegedly via text, I agreed on a price that was still too much, but considering the great condition of the bike and the plow, etc., I agreed to a price that was at least lower then their ridiculous asking price. You basically make your FAIR offer to them, then drive all the way down there, 2 hours away, only to have them completely disregard your CASH OFFER and come back at you with a completely ridiculous and unfair price that would actually buy you a brand new bike if you were willing to pay it. A new 2022 Yamaha Grizzly 700 XTR is $12,350 out-the-door. Who's going to pay you $12,000 for a used bike?? Hello, Stafford Springs, CT,.........can you hear me? 

 So I made it home safely after driving North through the Massachusetts gauntlet and everything was AOK.
