Ask The Editors: I need A Narrow SxS But Not Too Narrow

What you seek does exist but will take a little searching around.

You’re definitely going to have trouble meeting all of these criteria. Why? Because typically SxS, regardless of manufacturer, come in 3 size variants:

50 inches: Narrowest option, designed for ATV trails
60-65 inches: The most common width, designed without handling compromise
Over 65 inches: Widest, roomiest option for desert and wide open terrain

What you’re requesting is something between 50 and 60 inches, which isn’t impossible but these odd sizes usually fall into more work specific arenas than sport SxSs. A great example of this, and probably the closest to ticking all the boxes for you would be the Kawasaki MULE line UTVs.

The MULE comes in at 52.6 inches wide and in some roomy trim options.

You did say you’d consider off brand machines as well and that does open a few more options for you. The Massimo T-BOSS 760 is listed as being 57 inches wide. These machines are available at big box stores like Farm & Fleet so it should be relatively easy to hop in one to see if the legroom is what you seek.

Another good choice may be the CFMOTO UForce 600 two-seater- this one also lists width at 57-inches.

If you aren’t opposed to going used, Can-Am Commanders from a decade ago were billed as 60 inchers but actually measured 58.6 (2015) and early generation Yamaha Rhino 660s came in at 54.5 inches of width.

Like always, we certainly recommend the “try before you buy” method for any of the machines you’re considering to make sure there’s enough legroom for your particular build.
