So....last month my wife and I took a ride in my buddies RZR XP 1000 4 seater while we were up at Silver Lake sand dunes. We had a blast and my wife was obsessed. She essentially did not want to touch her Raptor 700 after that. So I began looking for one. Due to the current market for Powersports, people are asking outrageous prices for used stuff. So I started looking at new ones and realized that the turbo model was only $1300 more than the 1000. Only problem was that nobody had anything in stock. I got a tip from Polaris that they had just sent on to a dealer in Indianapolis. I called the dealer and they were closed due to a COVID case but the guy answering the phones looked in back and found the machine in the crate. I put a deposit on it and picked it up after their quarantine ended.

Right off the bat I ordered 4 point harnesses and harness pass through bezels. I also picked up a 2nd set of rims and got some paddles.

I also wound up buying a 12ft Aluma trailer so that I could double tow up to Silver Lake. We just got back and it was the most fun we’ve had on the dunes in years. It pulls pretty hard and soaks up the whoops real well.

awesome setup man

that aluma trailer is fucking sweet too.
Thanks. I spent a lot of time looking at the different Aluma and Bear tracker models. This particular model's deck actually measured out at 12’3” which was perfect for me. I think it’s called a 7812ES-A. This is also the first time I’ve tried out tire straps. They were handy as hell.

Very awesome! Nice set up. If you ever feel like getting more out of your suspension, check out a place called shock therapy. They re did my shocks and did a great job. Rides like an entirely new machine.
Thanks. I’ve gotten quite a few recommendations for shock therapy. I’ll definitely be sending them off to them in the future.

These are awesome. They are SUPER expensive though. I'd love to have one.


super is relative.

they're really not for what you get, and they hold their value very well. a person couldn't build anything as capable in their own garage for within 5k of what one costs.
