Why I shouldn't take three days off...,

[mwilson]

Now I have to order goggles for the dog....Sandy found some red ones last night on Amazon, called "Doggles".....I will, of course post a picture of those on the dog when we get them. The dust was bothering his eyes. Reached down to pet him when we got home and and was just like whacking a powder puff because of the dust......

New Bimini top and 2 piece windshield on order. Bought a set of mirrors yesterday, could not see behind me. Being an old truck driver I couldn't stand it any longer.

Sandy and Gilligan the dog waiting for a ride....

How is the heat radiation on the Can Ams on longer rides?

The only side by side I've really spent any amount of time in is a Rhino and the heat radiating off the engine/gear box will literally cook you on an 80 degree day. It was uncomfortable to say the least.

 

[mwilson]

Not bad, had it out last Monday and it was 90 degrees plus. A little bit warm on my right side. Heat will come up around the gear selector when the electric fan kicks in.
Not uncomfortable by any means for running on a hot day.

Sandy and I are catching on to the BRP strategy...

Everything is at least $109.00. Need a battery? $109.00 Need a mirror? $109.00 and so on.

I know, if you are going to play you are going to pay.............

Don't lose a key, between the cost of buying a blank and then paying them to program it you'd think they're made of unobtanium :-laf

 

[mwilson]

Is the key 109.00???

 

[JR]

Two of them cost me a Benjamin (plus tax....)

$35 each key plus another $30 for the dealer to program them. I suppose it's cheap insurance, the D.E.S.S. is supposed to be pretty good.

So back to your original post. Did you take the 3 days off ?

Oh Yea I did. Should have worked instead. I would not have had time to go buy the darn Can Am...........

 

[Tractorat]

Oh Yea I did.

Good for you.

As a matter of fact I'm taking a day off for mental health tomorrow. Told the boss this morning that I could not walk by the Can Am one more morning on my way to work. We are 5 days into the best stretch of weather that we have had all year and I plan to be out in it tomorrow..

BRP fever is what I am calling my sickness.....

My brother used to own a Harley. He says HD doesn't mean Harley Davidson, it means Hundred Dollars. You can't get out of the parts dept for any less.

That's good stuff, I never heard that one before......:-laf

I'll tell Sandy that we own a Can Am / Harley hybrid.........

If the Can-Am doesn't mark its territory, it's not a hybrid....

I'm going to check right now.

Top on, windshield in. Got it a bit muddy today.

 

[TFucili]

No glare off the windshield with the light bar behind it?

OK OK just catching up here. I love these things, but as a city boy (not for too much longer) only fantasy to me. As a kid there were plenty of places to get lost around here, but not anymore. In any event it was always illegal to run happy wheels anywhere in NYC, you were always taking a chance.
SOOOO my questions are; This appears to be a sanctioned thing up there, so where do you go? I see a tag on the front- is that a reggie? I see Rotax which is Bombadger (our joking pronunciation) and that usually means a screaming animal 2 stroke- what's exactly for power? Describe the powertrain- Quad ATV, or more like a Gator?
