X2....easily the worst two up money can buy----nice seat!? I mean that dump box would come in sooo handy while trail riding with the wife!

 

Best thing about the Bomb is that it's not a Polaris.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

I saw that long infomercial too and got a few chuckles myself.

Polaris thinks they are the most versitile now, but are they the fastest?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
I think it's gonna be difficult for any brand to compete with the rotax vtwin power. It'll be fun watchin them try though.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

Well I bought my wife a leftover 05 Polaris ATP 500, and she loves it. The box, I admit is a bit small, but is very fuctional for packing gear, food etc and then you can cover it with a water proof tarp and everthing stays in and dry. Then there is the dog facter, I love just having my Lab just jump in the back and off to the river for a swim rather than bouncing him around like a ping pong ball in the trailer. Also it's a lot of fun just to put the tail gate down and sit in the back and scan for deer while my wife puts around. The load capacity is 400lbs in the box of an ATP which I believe is the capaticy for the Honda Ridgeline, so yes the box is small but comes in quite handy on the trail. Now, I'm talking about the ATP not really sure what the capiticys are on the X2's, maybe a little less due to IRS. Also it looks like the box is a bit smaller than that of the ATP. I know my front rack on the ATP is deeper than the 06/07 X2's.

 

You can say that again....LOUD AND CLEAR, BOMBARDIER FIRST!!!

 

Rotax are great engines, however don't count out Suzuki and Yamaha. When they decide to build a speed engine it is always a hit. Look at the crotch rockets, or even comparing the snowmobile engines. The rotax don't have the power of the suzuki's in that catagory. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

 

Suzuki make a fairly tough bike. But as far the yamaha yfz 450's....they are time bombs....just ticking to explode. Trust me...I own one. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
