OFC,

You're welcome.

By the way, I want one too. I never thought I'd say this, but I actually like the RZR better than a typical ATV.

I drove it over whoops that would have swallowed a small volkswagen and the suspension was incredible.

Polaris spent 4 years developing and testing the RZR and they put over 10,000 miles on them in testing. It shows. Incredible machine. Defined a whole new category of ATV. I came up with the term SRUV (Sport Recreational Utility Vehicle) to describe. (SUV sounds too much like a truck)

The only downfall i see with the RZR is it weighs half a ton. 800 lbs would have been more appropriate as allotta states have an 800 lb ATV classification. But then agin UTV aint ATV so they must be under seperate jurisdiction?

I always thought they needed to be like Go carts and not golf carts.. Get the weight down low. I like this move.. I hope they come out with a Pilot style single seater in the future too [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] 4x4

Woops, missed that first line. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

And your butt ain't helpin the weight any. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

I see in PSAR they say it falls under the jeep category. You know if they go by the titled weight or the actual weight?

Seems like if it was close, you could trim a few pounds, get it approved, and take it from there.
