Marie and I just got back from an awesome trip. We unloaded last Thursday near Darby Montana and drove the MacGruder Corridor Road up the West Fork of the Bitteroot river up and over in the Salmon River Ridges. We drove to near Dixie, Idaho and spent the night at White Water Ranch on the Main Salmon River. This was a 135 mile day. Friday left the Salmon River headed north for Elk City, then over Forest roads and trails to the Selway River drainage to Selway Falls. Down river to Syringa Idaho and stayed at River Dance Lodge. This was 115 miles with 7 on pavement. Saturday we left Syringa and drove North to the Lolo Hostoric trail which is forest road (?) 500. This is the trail that Lewis and Clark traveled from Montana to the Columbia River and back in 1805 and 1806. We finished the trip near Lolo, Montana. Total trip mileage was 368 miles in 3 days!

It was a fantastic trip with wonderful weather, great Idaho Perfect scenery and dang good company. We didn't take a lot of pictures but will try to post some up soon. If anyone has the time and desire to go, this is a trip I would gladly do again!

My experience with Polaris products have always been good. The local dealer works very hard on customer service. I would buy another one.

One more solution is air ride on the trailer and on the RZR. The new Legend shocks are amazing. You can go from 1 3/4 clearance to 18 inches of clearence in just a moment!

#51 Re: Where to Ride? » Great ride in SE Idaho » 2010-04-25 19:07:33

We just got the new Legend Air Shocks installed on our Rzr's so we decided to give them a ride. Trailered to Atomic City and then road west and south near Minidoka through the Great Rift of Idaho. There had been rain and snow earlier in the week so it was wet and muddy. The trails and roads were very wet and the new ride was fantastic. We unloaded at 1:00, road 107 miles in some pretty rugged conditions and back to the truck near 7:00.

Here are a few photos. By the way, the Great Rift is a crack in the earth that runs about 150 miles 1272247321292788.jpg  1272246940420884.jpg   1272247213713686.jpg

Bear Trap cave is a lava tube that runs about 15 miles.

I just put it on my Rzr and am very pleased. I only have 250 miles on the new set up but so far we are very happy

#55 Re: Ruthless Motor Sports » Quiet-Glide Skid Plate for RZR & RZR S » 2010-04-01 13:00:29

I put the quiet glide on my Rzr as part of the mods I just did. This is a great tool and a super addition. During a recent trip to Moab you could drive the front tires over a ledge, let the unit drive up until the bottom touched and then just keep sliding till the rear wheels came over the ledge. Worked even better going down.

I have a set of "nurf bars" that came off the old unit if anyone is interested in them... they look good but are not near as effective as the quiet glide system. They are cheap though so if you are looking for some protection and a great look give me a PM.

If not, buy this system... it works very well.

Just got back last night from Moab. We picked the RZR's up on Thursday afternoon and arrived in Moab about 4:00 pm. We rode 30 miles that day out near Tusher Tunnel, Wipe Out Hill and Bartlett Wash. I was amazed at how the suspension was improved and gave such a good ride.

Friday we did Poison Spider, Golden Spike, Rusty Nail and Gold Bar Rim - Real big day that was very cold, snowy and rainy. Due to the wet trails, slick and ice we had to get the winch out for part of Rusty Nail trail. It was on the ledge where there is not much trail and a huge incline up a boulder. I'm sure if I was not such a puss the machine could have driven it, but the exposure was pretty big and I didn't want to leave the wheeler there!

Saturday we drove out to Hey Joe Canyon, then cross the desert to Dellenbach Tunnel, through the wash to Secret Spire, back to Bartlett Wash, down to Merrimac Butte and back around to the truck at Dubinkey Wells and 313. Pretty good ride although we did it too fast.

I am amazed at the suspension and what it has done to the wheeler. The steering wheel was very well thought out and a great tool for the money spent. I also did a new air intake system and exhaust. WOW!!! We did over 100 miles in all kinds of condition and the air filter was clean when wqe were done. Yea the pre filter needed cleaning, but the filter is as clean as when we started.

Jared has been great to work with. He had a snafu with some parts that didn't come in right but he got right after that and had the machines ready when we arrived.

It has been a pleasure working with Ruthless Motor Sports and I will continue to spend money there. Jared and his crew were way more willing to help than any of the shops in our area. I would say he is well worth the drive!! 

I will try to get some pictures loaded. Problem was we were having way too much fun to stop and take pictures

#58 Re: Where to Ride? » Where to ride for a short weekend? » 2010-03-16 18:51:18

It looks like I am going to Mt. Pleasant, Utah to pick up my Rzr on 3-25-10. That means I have Thursday afternoon, Friday and part of Saturday to give the rig a good work out. Any body have any suggestions of where to ride the wheeler and not spend all my time trailering someplace? Moab is not out of the question, it just might be a little too much dragging!?

Your suggestions are all welcomed.

#59 Re: The X Spot » Getting ready for some Modifications » 2010-03-11 19:16:57

I had a great down and back trip to Mt. Pleasant Utah today. It is the first time in my 60 years that I had been to that little town and I can see why they call it Mt. Pleasant!

It was great to meet you Jared and finally get a face with the name. After spending a few hours with him, I can see why so many people on this forum like him.

I do have to tell you all it was a costly trip. I looked over some additional things to do to the wheeler and Jared was all too pleased to keep making the list longer!! If all goes well, we will go back down on 3-25 and probably head of to Moab for a couple of days. I can hardly wait to see how much better it runs out,

By all means Jared, keep the photos coming, wheeler "porn" has got to be as good as Jet Boat "porn" so post away!!!

Marie and I have pulled the plug and we are doing some major modifications to our new Rzr. We are going with the Rzr to RzrS Conversion kit. It will also get new wheels and tires, street legal kit, leg minders and the quiet glide skid plate put on underneath. I have not made my mind up regarding keeping stock shocks or putting after market on. If anyone has any experience with that, I would appreciate your input. If you have a brand name and model to share that would be great too.

After making the decision and talking to my business partner, he has decided to do the same things to his Rzr also.

We have opted to have all the stuff supplied and installed by Jared Livingston at Ruthless Motor Sports. He has treated us very well and we are real happy to do some business with him. I priced everything with my local dealer and Jared was significantly cheaper and much more willing to help. I would suggest he is really trying hard to build his business.

I will be driving to Mt Pleasant this week to take the units to him. Tonight I spent a couple of hours stuffing two 8'6" Rzrs into a 16 foot trailer. Jared if you are reading this, don't be too impatient when I have to jack one up and put wheels and tires back on just to get it out of the trailer! 

I hope to get some pictures posted of the conversion as we go. Looking forward to MOAB!
