That is one sweet machine! Too bad it cannot be considered an ATV, It would be an absolute blast to go ripping down the trails with. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I as a Polaris fan sure hope Polaris go the same route with a version of their Ranger!

I'm starting to get jealous. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

The Pics they have of it here on ATV connection made a look alot better. Side views of the YAMAHA site scream for larger tires!

I think the new rhino is awesome! I have a Ranger right now but it is too slow. Hopefully this thing goes faster!!! The rear suspension on the ranger sucks. I bent the swing arm and had to have it replaced. The rhino suspension looks way better with the IRS. I just wish it had more travel (9-10 in.)

do you think the rhino is geared lower than the grizzly for more power/less top speed?

I am hoping for 50+ mph!

As long as it has similar gearing to the grizzly it should be pretty fun.

The top speed is listed as 35MPH, very close to the Ranger... The really great thing is that all the big wheel kits made for the Grizzly will bolt right on! Nothing says traction like a set of ITP's monster tires and wheels!

could you send me the link with the info about the top speed. That is very disappoining news- 35 mph will not cut it. The ranger goes 42 and it feels to slow.

That is good news about the big wheel kit. But 27" tires will only increase the top speed to 38 mph. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

thanks for the info

I'm going to wait for the R-1 motor in that thing! You got'a know, that's on the drawing board.
