After 3 painful weeks of waiting, I'll get to try it out tomorrow. I still have to install the front protection bars and winch this week-end but it's ready to go !

Plus you better get the front and rear fender protecotors and rear bumper. So easy to ding a fender.

Got the fender protectors.....I bought them after the fact, based on what I read here. I'll be putting them on tomorrow, with the winch.

Great looking machine, congratlations! Not that you have not spent enough money, I think I would add one other thing besides the much need fender guards. That is the front basket. I know what some may say, "that's not needed"! I use the front basket just as much as I do the rear bed. When working in the woods I put the chain saw, oil and gas in the front basket and the firewood in the dump. I lined the entrie basket with plywood that I had painted John Deere Green. Looks great and is without quesiton one of the most useful additions to my 825i.

Yahoo !!! Me and the pooch went for our first ride ( Momma is pissed at me 'cause she's still at work ) and we love it ! Even if it's not the seat I had ordered (bucket...I had ordered with bench) I am really happy with it. We went down the creek and found a muddy hill to climb....quite impressed with the power and even with the engine braking. Had to re-adjust the latch on my door but heck...it's gonna be fun !

Ordered an 825i two weeks ago and am patiently waiting. However, I saw tonight that John Deere is now offering power steering on the 825i!
