Little bastards get everywhere. I spent one night in a desert campsite and got this one. The AC fan in my small class C RV started going clickity, clickity, clickity on the way back from a ride yesterday. It was this guy‘s tail hitting the fan housing.

Welcome from another retired guy in the Tobacco Roots. Let me know if you’re looking to ride out this way.

Camo is slow by design to not spook the animals.

I’d love to be able to get my 117 Rottweiler service dog in the bed!

I think he’d fit in the Dusty Dawgs carrier. Sage and a 5 gallon gas can fit no problem.

Ride in the bed? Before his back surgery in April, my little buddy Duke would think nothing about running 10-20 miles along side me on the Rancher 350. I tried to post the video, but it's too large. 😕

Rock Creek Road. Wife wanted Blue. Found dealer in Utah that had one coming in. Took a few months. It’s road legal now with mirrors and license plate I put on. Need a horn but for now I just step on my wife’s foot and she yells.

Nice, I’ll give it a go...

Wondered where you found a P520 in MT. I guess you didn't. The last P500 they sold in Butte here was back last August to me. They just can't get them. And you have to put money down just to get on their list. My son was on a list for 6 months just to get a Razor in Idaho. You will like the P520. That is all you will need in these mountains. Unless you have to outrun a Griz.

I picked mine up from Beaverhead motorsports in Dillon 2 weeks ago (called dealers in March and got a deposit down). They are slim pickin's for sure though...

Wow! That is a gorgeous picture... Love the places these P500/520’s can show us. Congrats on the 520, love that blue color!

How much vision do you lose with that nice glass windshield? I was reluctant to get one because it looks like you lose some vision close in.

I’ve got the UTV801 and haven’t noticed any loss with it. It’s made basically the same.

Bought in Logan, Utah. It was the first 520 delivered for the year!

Needed windshield with the dusty forest road we have our cabin on. My wife has asthma and between the shield and back panel it helps. We are older and I am disabled. We take our time along the road. Use it for going down the road to our fly fishing spots.

Welcome from Central Florida. Nice! Have fun.

Like that dog. Might help with a bear.

He is a 117 lb black bear. 🤪. Actually my service dog I got with the help of the VA. Quite the intelligent one at that. He is all raw fed. Eats 56 oz per day.

I missed your question. Compared to no windshield, a little loss laterally especially at 39 mph on a curved dirt road. At trail speeds not much. I’ve not tackled a rocky trail at night since I installed it to see how much I loose- maybe a foot or two (max) visibility directly in front of the P5.
