I would really love to see some proof of this claimed 16 RWHP from a dyno.
From what I have seen from the Rincon it appears to be powerless...forget pulling a moose out of a bog....the rincon is barely capable of moving it's own self in the mud.

Yeah this was LIVE on sunday, polaris 500 scamblers were spinning the wheels off were the rincon would just bog...ranchers with 589's were passing it through the mud like nothing...I was very disapointed.

I notice the majority of the peeps saying that the Rincon is junk and a joke have only seen one in action once or twice and probably didn't even ride one. There are some lemons out there, in all brands, but speaking from experience with my Rincon and seeing others in action it is pretty ridiculous to say they can't even hardly power themselves. I pulled a 10 foot log that weighed over 1000 lbs through sand. And this was with stock tires. You can't convince me that it doesn't have power, and low-end grunt to boot. I just can't resist speaking up for my ride since I see everybody else hammering it. :-) I'm very happy with it, but I'm sure it's not the ride for everyone. Not everyone can stand having the plushest ride in the industry along with gobs of power and an awesome sleek body with a nifty shifting tranny.....some people gotta have the old straight axled belt burning square bodied clod hoppers.....kekeke
