The only real reason people want access is to mess with fuel maps - which gets into the whole emissions thing and why manufacturers have to keep that stuff locked up. I understand some dealers charge a lot to hook up a vehicle and use Digital Wrench, this is no different at the car/truck dealer level. It's an expensive tool us dealers have to have to do our jobs. I understand that people want access to everything, but there really isn't much advantage for a consumer to have Digital Wrench. Polaris will only authorize a limited amount of computers/laptops for us to have Digital Wrench installed on them. So, I wound up with two Honda 450's.Digital wrench is a yearly charge to it's dealers, almost $1000 I think, then the cabling is over $500. Couldnt imagine not owning at least one quad. In March I bought her an '06 TRX250EX (Thank God I didnt trade my 450 for one of those) LOL Since then, I have become totally addicted to quads. And yes, I know my way around Browns Camp pretty well. I rode my 450 for 4-6 hours almost every single day for 3 months. My new job everyday? Going to Browns Camp and ridding my Quad. I decided right then, I loved my Honda 450 and would learn how to ride it instead of selling it. After about 5 minutes I started feeling comfortable on it again. I decided to take it for one last ride at Browns Camp before I sold it. I had a guy that wanted to come look at it that evening.
Just get used to it" I still wasnt convinced. The salesman said."Dude!!! You dont want a 250EX!!! Trust me. The quad came bouncing and landed on my back. When it rolled, I flew off and landed on my belly. I was there a few hours and rolled it on a banked turn at the top of the bowl right before you get to the one-ways. I had it for about 2 weeks and took it to Sand Lake. HOLY CHIT!!!!! I was surprised by the power. I took it to the field across the street from his house. We drove over to a friend of mines house and unloaded it. Anyway, I took it by the house and showed her. BTW, I didnt bother to ask my ol lady if I could buy it. Load it up in my truck." It was just about dark by the time I drove away from the shop. "Can I help you?" Without hestitation I pulled 60 Ben Franklins outta my front pocket and said "I want this Quad. I was sitting on it when the salesman walked up and asked. I knew nothing about quads accept I thought it really looked coool and I had the money in my pocket to buy it. There was a left over '05 sitting by the front door. For some strange reason thats still to this day beyond me, I stopped in Hillsboro MotoSports on the way home from work.
I had planned on meeting the guy again after work. Took it for a test drive one morning before work. Back in Oct of '06 I found a Mustang on craigslist. I guess I was a late bloomer when it comes to quads.
