Bought in October.

Ran the engine 2-3 times so it stays lubricated.

Currently 1:40 in tank + 1:35 electronic injector (only for break-in)

Can't wait to get back home to try it on snow :drool: (2 feets atm)

Get some hand guard gauntlets if you haven't yet assuming those are heated grips. Worth their weight in gold.

Yeah factory mounts were like 100$ + factory guards plastic cups 75$ so I am going to try to find some aftermarket ones for like 75$ all included !!

Yes it's heated grips :)

I did add:

- Travel bag for steering mountings.
- Gaz tank holder on tunnel.
- Clutch strap
- 2 x plugs.

Also I went to the license place and requested to plate this thing and recieved this lovelly license plate ^^ VX16( it's a 2016 hehe)800(it's a 800cc hehe).

A friend of mine just traded in an artic cat sports sled for a cruiser....apparently he got whipped, his wife just wants to ride behind him and not drive.


Gotta love a sled named Pantera!

I meant the gauntlets as in a giant glove that goes over your grips/levers to insulate your hands. They attach to your handlebars. They are awesome, here it's like -20 or colder plus whatever speed your doing they are a must have.

Ahhh now I get it! But nah I don't think I'm going to install theses.

I plan mostly for only handguards on it as I'm not going to do long run on trail and normally I should only run trought forest line or in the hills !

Sooooo, I was trying to turn around in reverse in a steep narrow line hehe... A small 2" hardwood tree...


Tomorrow I'll grab a 1 1/4" aluminium tube and replace that weak spot x) Oh god why you want to save 1/2 pound by using a shit piece of carbon for a part that is supposed to take impacts hahaha !
