Hey, I think you miss read the info, it has a low center of gravity making the most stable utv on the market. I have seen two large people sit in it (1 about 6' 250, and the other about 6' 4" 200) and they said it was comfortable. The only downfall is it cant do much work but will be capable of 55 mph and 65 mph with small mods.

 

Yeah, VINNY you're right about the first year bugs. I've been bitten by that twice now; a 1999 Prairie 300 and a 1995 Polaris Scrambler 400. Both needed a couple of years of production to get right. I also have the 1987 Quadzilla but didn't buy it new and haven't had any head trouble with it anyway.
Anyone have pics to either wheeler?

 

UTV raceing is really growing and I think thats what polaris is giong after with the razor.These things are going to be big sellers.

 

yeah i agree bill.... rhino racing is a pretty big sport in some areas...and thats all there is is rhinos....i dont even see any prowlers for some reason. but i can guarentee these rzr's will be able to compete with rhinos in mx style racing!!!

 

Any news on the Polaris razr? I know one thing,you get no re sale value out of Polaris in my area.Honda,Yamaha,Kawa,Suzuki,and Artic C. are the big dogs on the block.....Most of the dealers of the aforementioned brands will not take a Polaris on trade.I like the Rhino because you can haul,race are just have fun with it...

 

Im not sure about the south but here in the midwest polaris hold there own in the resale department.I think this is a good move for them to make if you want a work horse like i did you buy a ranger or a sport side by side you get the razor.As far a you guys liking the jap brands down south lets not forget you guys down there are used to losing...........................KIDDING just alittle joke....I dont think there going to be out till summer,

 

Bill! We didn't lose....we are just taking a break! Seriously, the Polaris doesn't sell very well down here.I wish there was a SXS that was American made that could hold up like the Japanese stuff. Honda and Yamaha is king in this part of the country.... A true southerner never conceded.....I have a long line heritage as a rebel.....my great grand father fought in the last battle of Blakely(two weeks after Lee gave up) and was a corporal in the 21st mississippi reg.....

 

I really hate to change the subject but I ordered two Polaris rangers from two different dealers 150 miles apart. Got them both for list price which is probably going to turn out to be a pretty good deal as I had a chance to take a spin in the rzr in Arizona and these things are trully a blast to drive. They feel like they've got twice the power of a stock Rhino and actually come with a fuel guage-speedo stock for the 9999.00. You can take a flying leap in one without ending up on your nose with two passengers on board and take it sideways at will. Concerns regarding interior room can be put aside due to the rear mount engine not sitting between the driver-passenger. Another major plus is the lack of noise in the cockpit compared to my Rhino. You can actually have a conversation in this thing if you decide to go without a helmet on your noggin and I swear it didn't seem like it was near the dustbowl inside with a windsheild installed as the Rhino is. Articulation could be a problem as the stabilizer does take some of the twistability out of the chassy but I imagine it won't be long and there will be a quick disconnect feature in the aftermarket. Besides this thing flat GETS AROUND A CORNER with very liittle of the tippiness associated with the Rhino. Didn't get a chance to cruise one with the oversize tires but why screw with the 50 inch width and the wonderful handling. The big shot test drivers really tried like hell to run a rock the stock tires but couldn't get the job done (I mean they really tried hard-you would have thought it was a contest of some sort). Anyway I felt like throwing my Rhino over a cliff until I got home, went for a ride and realized the RZR is an entirely new and different direction in a SXS and the Rhino now fits in the middle somewhere. This reminds me of the old Honda go-cart of the early 90's on steroids. So I ordered two and am hoping to get at least one as I can't imagine going through the summer without one. Both dealers claim to have been notified last week of impending delivery in mid-to-late April and both seperately said they were told to try to keep them for demo units as they would'nt ship again till Fall. These are small dealers so they are going to SELL. The big dealer in the area has deposits on five.

 

I've read lots of different opinions on this matter. I think people who use rhino's for work is a very small percentage to people who actually use them for sport, and to have lots of fun. This is why I think the RZR is going to be a big hit. Lower center of gravity for me is a big plus, more power stock, awesome. Just imagine when the aftermarket stuff comes out for this unit, it'll be incredibly fast. So far I know 5 people with rhino 660's, they all use them for play, when they read the review on the RZR, they're going with polaris. I think the rhino is an incredible unit capable of almost anything. But something new and exiting always sells better. Well, thats what I think, I want to know if anyone knows any information on the upcoming honda RUV, as well as Kawi's donkey.

 

I have seen a lot of info. and opinions about the new Rzr. I believe every person must decide the aspect of what they will use the vehicle for. I own a 2006 rhino 660. I personaly will not trade it off for a rzr. Here in West Virginia, the rhino is a true work machine, and I put it to the test everyday on our family farm. My rhino has also proven itself on the trails and in the mudholes. On the otherhand, I have added many accesories to get that nice modified look. The rzr has a nice modified look straight from the factory, which will save on costs to upgrade to that sporty look. All in all, I believe a true rhino fan will stay with the reliability that has been proven in all aspects of riding.
