Hello People, Back in the quad world after a12+ year absence. Just purchased a '21 Polaris Sportsman 570 Premium (be here in 5 weeks). Never though I would buy a Polaris, back in the day they were the swear word of ATV'S, but researching they have come a long way. I have been on quads my whole life and have had probably about 8+ quads from racers to my Brute 750 (loved that machine). I was considering a '21 Griz 700, but being in Ct we have no areas to ride so the 570 was perfect price for it's use.  In the past I was registered in MA & ME and rode Paragon in PA which was Awesome (believe closed down/developed)-To enjoy good riding have to leave my state. I belonged to a solid group of riders in the past "Northeast ATV'ers"  many good times and good people.*** History lesson: A group of us back in the day fought for a trail system against the State of Ct (RELL) trying to get areas to ride. We went to dealers to get numbers of sales to present (requested by state) showing proof of money that could be made in ATV registration/passes. State wanted us to have people register their quads see what numbers look like "THEN" would consider a trail system, land, forests to ride. Well, that didn't go over well- Who's going to register there machine, pay a fee & taxes for a possible nothing?...So long story short I tried to battle our state for riding areas we got no where and there's plenty of land sitting. They sell the machines but we can't legally ride them here which sucks. Im hoping if time allows to get to a few areas with friends for good riding. Maybe meet up with new riders for some good times....thanks, looking forward to getting back into the quad world...
