    Sadly, there are none. Hasn't left the garage since Februaryish 2020. It just sits plugged into a battery tender. We sold our atvs we bought it to replace shortly after our last trip. The guy that bought them wanted the trailer too. So we sold it to him with the intent to purchase a bigger all aluminum trailer that fit the sxs better with room to spare for a dirt bike for my wife. Then covid happened and our third child came along. Trailers got hard to find and about 1500 more expensive and we needed an extra seat too. So we never got either the trailer or a bench seat. Then I got sick, my wife had to quit her job, and we are trying to adjust to life with a single income. More likely than not, the SxS will get sold next spring. I just don't see us being able to afford a trailer and bench seat. It is either spend 2-4k to get a trailer and seat or put 15k in the bank from the sale of the machine and get a parking spot back in the garage.

    Aw man! Sorry to hear that. I was hoping to hear wild SxS adventure stories. But I can see how this current situation you going through puts the SxS on the back burner. On a plus side, the ATV market is hotter than ever! You should be able to get top dollar for it

    Its crazy to see the AF line dip on the stock tune making it run rich. You would think that the manufacturer would have tune it to perfection before sending it into production to optimize power & reliability. Though the hp & tq increases are sweet, knowing that the AF ratio holds tight during the entire power band would be worth the $ spent on the tune.

    Time to get BW tuned Randall

    I have a friend that used to tune for OEMs. Judging from some of the conversations I've had with him, there's some ridiculous reason that's been done. Could be drivability, EPA, or even some dumb reason in a foreign land. He always lists some reason of this nature for why he's moved onto the motorsport industry.

    You can use my trailer any time you want Dan. It will haul a bike and a sxs.

    Edit - if that doesn't work out, I say Jaime buys it for me if you have to sell. Which I pray doesn't happen.

    Yeah, for sure. If we do sell, we'll probably make money on it after owning it for 2.5 years. They are going for at least MSRP around here. We got lucky and bought it at thousands below MSRP, so we have quite a bit of cushion.

    Well, I hope it doesn't come to that but since you put it that way, if you aren't upside down on it, maybe that is the best choice.

    I would really like to have a SxS in place of my dual sport choice because we have two dogs now. But damn! I could buy almost three dual sports for the price of a decent one and teach the dogs to ride solo. :p
