Of course it's the rider, but if you take a machine that can instill confidence in a rookie when the ride is not that stable, you could have a problem. I almost rolled my Sporty 800 when I hit a large rock covered from my side by vines. I was going 2 mph and have been riding for years. Accidents happen very quickly and sometimes you can't avoid them. There must be something to the complaints you see about how the rzr rolls. People usually don't just make that kind of crap up.

I do not believe roll overs are ever due to the stability of the RZR. I found the RZR to be extremely stable.

I think what happens is that the RZR is such a great handling machine that it lulls you into getting too comfortable and you start driving faster and faster. You don't realize how fast you're going until you hit that sharp turn with a gravel base and the next thing you know you're skidding and then going *ss over tea kettle.

I've never rolled a side by side but I've seen it happen. It was always due to someone driving too fast for the conditions.

Agreed.
Polaris stuck their neck out with a bigger engine and a much narrower width; yet (IMO) it was a responsible business decision employing the same logic that you describe above.

A nice chick used to lift at the gym I went to. She also rode in the rodeo in our area. She got slammed at the rodeo and is now paralyzed from the neck down. I don't see her blaming the horse. Guess she is more of a "Man" that some will ever be .....My 2 cents.......
