Polaris Experience Center/Factory - Roseau

Was up north camping at Zippel Bay State Park and took a tour of the Polaris factory in Roseau. They've got two ATV assembly lines and one snowmobile assembly line. Scored on a Victory t-shirt and Victory hat at the Polaris Experience Center. There's a Jackpot sitting on a pedestal outside the Experience Center and some history on building "The Hammer" Victory Engine (square block V92C). A 2005 Arlen Ness Signature Series and Francis - The Mule were on display also.

For 60's and 70's muscle car enthusiast's, The Shed in Warroad had 100+ vehicles, most with Hemi's of one form or other. Free Admission.

The Shed is also home to V92C #13, which Frank Marvin of Marvin Windows bought as a gesture of support for Polaris in nearby Roseau. He originally had the fluids drained and kept the bike in a living room inside his house for several years.

The Shed had that V92C and two Indian motorcycles. The Indian I looked at was a 2012 model.

Might need to make a run up there in the near future....

I believe that Arlen Ness Vegas they show in the Experience Center is a 2004, and not a 2005. In 2005, Arlen did the pink and black Kingpin, and Corey did the blue and black Vegas. The red and black Vegas was from 2004.
