The sled looks amazing and sounds even better. The exhaust note is perfect in my opinion, it's got a low deep tone and is louder then I expected but by no means to loud.
The snow gods must have known I was bringing it home because we got 3ins of nice heavy snow yesterday evening. I only put about 3 miles on it but coming from a phazer I was very impressed with the power and ride of it so far. Didn't get a good chance to open it up but it is very quick.
The quality looks better then people are saying. Like any first year sled there are things you can pick apart and nit pick but I am very happy so far. I am going to pull all the plastics off and look things over good but just couldn't pass up the opportunity to take it for a quick ride last night.
I will post pics once I get my short blue windshield and hand guards put on, I just can't stand the dumbo ears on the stock windshield. It will be a great winter for us viper owners I think!

That's all you got 3 miles,when I picked my procross turbo up last year at this time HPS had 3 inches in there field and I put 12 miles on,until a oil line hose slipped off its connector and started dripping oil onto my muffler,but up until that time wfo acrossed each side of the field,up to 70 mph real quick little blips lol the giggle inside my head I remember loud and clear,congrates I absolutely love that blue viper.yamahabuyer said:The sled looks amazing and sounds even better.

What do you guys think? The low windshield really gives it a different look. Part of me thinks I should have went with a black one but I do like the looks of the blue one. Installed my hand guards and Arctic Cat white shock covers as well. Can't wait to get the rest of my goodies put on her!
