I was scraping against a rock when I hit some higher rocks, and I was like, this shouldn't be anything scraping against the bottom of this. So I looked under the bike when I got home, and here's a mount for a plow that was underneath the bike bolted on. So you could slide a snow plow in there. And I don't need a snow plow mount. I'm not gonna take it off, because it's like extra metal under the bike. If it hits rocks and bends up, I don't care. It's just more metal under the bike to protect the bottom of it. Mind you, it has a steel skid plate underneath it as well. And it's pretty high. Based on the wheels that it's got and stuff, I get way more ground clearance on this thing than I ever did on the little 220. But I guess that's just another one of the benefits of a 500 as opposed to a 220. So gotta love it, man. Really enjoying that bike. It's a bear to hold onto. When you're on rough terrain, oh man, you really gotta hold onto that thing. And you get a really good arm pump. When you hit rocks and stuff, it just wants to jerk the bar right out of your hand and try to hold onto that. Man, I tell you, every time I ride it, I always got an arm pump going the next day. I can feel it in my arms. But what do you do? A Rover brother-in-law's bike in that thing has power steering. It's like you don't even gotta hold onto it. It just stays put. So that's a lot better. And it's fuel-injected, so it's day and night. It's got a smaller engine than mine. By a little bit, it's a 420. Gotta love the engine size, though. My name is Josh. Keep me on the list, man. Hopefully my ramblings have drawn a few more people into the fold. And good morning to Bill and Peter and Ray. How you doing, you crazy?
