I've heard the Ranger's don't come with an engine brake, is that true? I put one on my Sportsman and was glad I did. Without it going down a mountainside wouldn't be much fun for me.

I've had trouble with the Sportsman going down steep hills the rear end swings back and forth, this is at slow speeds. A guy told me this was due to the factory tires, don't know if that's true.

A couple of years ago I was with a guy going down a road in a Ranger. We came to a small drainage ditch in the road. He took it at a slight angle and slow speed and the Ranger tipped over on my side in slow motion. Fortunately we were going slow or it could have been bad. I've heard a lot of good about the Ranger but this has spooked me on them. I still don't know which side by side I'm going to buy.

 

ONLY the 09 ranger 500 carb models are non ebs,all the other Rangers and Razr are ebs.

 

That's not what I have heard...

 

sorry old tech, my rzr does not have EBS, but the clutching setup does provide a good amount of braking down to about 7-10 mph, and then it's freewheeling.
