Received my green Wolv on Saturday morning with son's Polaris 570 Hunter edition.
first day was spent feeling her out in field, trails and hills. Blew me away: great power, fantastic steering, and truly awesome suspension compliance/damping. At full boil on uneven/bumpy terrain it was very stable...much more so than the 570 atv.
Second day....MUDDING!!!! We went down to the pond where there is an area of spring runoff creating a perfect place to churn up a mud track/bog.
this property is new for us and prior owner must not have done this. 5 passes with both vehicles created a consistency of wet mash/soup and the mud was flying. Wolverine was great, made it through a foot of mud with no problems with two aboard, both of us over 210lbs. My son on 570 was in heaven. The atv did better in the mud, as it was like riding a jet ski, whereas the Wolverine was like a boat.
cleanup....sucked. some needed advice, brothers, as the mud and grass was literally everywhere and we both spent 2 hours pulling chunks of mud/grass slabs out of crannies I'd probably never discover otherwise, and hosing them down as best we could. A power washer is the preferred solution???
All done, it was a great experience, both of us with our new toys. Coming from a roadracing background, I'm new to atv/utv world, I really liked the Wolverine. It ate all I threw at it and certainly satisfies my craving of 4 wheeled performance Passion.
Didn't video anything but I plan on using my roll cage rig to mount a gopro and record some laps around the property. I'm very glad I went with a SxS, as I found it much more comfortable/stable/inviting to drive fast through the trails than the atv. It's a differect animal and one that suits me better.
be good,
tom
