Thanks Joey, but isn't that sac religious? I'm not doing any mods to my 700 like that, just don't need to due to what it's purposed for. Besides, I've spent a boat load on my P5 lol.

I'm not saying you should, but you questioned what the other guys were talking about. I just wanted to show you what has been done in the past by other members.

The shocks I put on were Fox brand and yes they were meant for a Polaris but they were not made by Polaris! But as you mentioned, you will not be using yours for the same type of use that I did. After all the accessories on my P 700, the front end was sagging pretty bad and bottomed out frequently. If you ever get to that point, you should know that we will have options for you to look at.

I seen earlier you guys talking about the rear sway bar for the P 700. I can tell you that I removed mine and it was much better and I would never consider putting it back on. I won't be removing the one on the P 1000 because it is capable of going much faster but on the 700 it was great to have it removed.

Thank you joey. My front end won't be sagging because I won't be accessorizing the 700 as I did the 500. It just seems odd to me that a cross word about Honda will catch you hell here but it seems perfectly ok to install CanAm shocks on a Honda. Anyway, I don't feel the need to remove the sway bar because it seems just fine to me the way that it is. The P5 was a whole other story lol.

If you're used to the P500 ride, you'll think the P700 in stock form is a Cadillac.

I'm just glad you got the P700, it's exciting to see another transformation! I know what you say about not modding it but it's a disease remember? You've got H.A.D. and we'll watch the accessories slowly roll in.

Lol, you big kidder you. I really don't need the mods on this one, and I really have more important places for my money to be going right now, but we'll see in the end who's right about that lol. :)

Usually my drink doesn't get too far from my mouth so I just use my natural cup holder, also known as my hand. But I have seen a cup holder that fits on a ram mount that would be pretty slick.
That cup holder is just meant to hold your next drink or two. Less stops.
