Probably will. It doesn't make a ton of sense to me though. From what I've seen you can kill yourself just as easily on a 250 as an 850. Just a little more slowly...

It's not meant to be a trails machine. Think, more along the lines of a mini-trophy truck.
1000cc
Suspension that is TOUGH and most users will not be brave enough to push the vehicle hard enough to bottom it out.
This will be polarizing vehicle, it's not going to be a "do all" it's going to be " You want fast, go fast" type vehicle. Kinda like Ford’s raptor (but obviously not to scale).
Sportsman won't see the motor, at least not for a while.
Just saying

Why do they need to spend all that money just to compete with such a small portion of the market?? I guess all the new platic parts helped fund their new adventure.
I was surprised to see my friend has know about this new SxS for some time now and never told me. He's pretty good about keeping a secret.

Ruining the sport? Or actually pushing it for better products?
Come on, progress is never bad. All these SxS that get more people out riding and supporting out land rights is a good thing. Going fast and separating the boys from the toys is always going to be a part of anything in any industry that is moving in the right direction.
Computer nerds will always want the fastest PC.
Car guys will always want more HP
Book nerds will want things like the Kindle
Etc…
Nothing wrong with going fast, enjoying a great ride and selling it on craigslist for ½ what you bought it for with no REAL TOUGH miles to me
If business's aren't growing they are dying. Can you imagine if we all still rode Kawasaki 250's? Talk about lame...

There have been a few hills where the 500 in high gear wasn't accelerating anymore. Of course, my son on his Renegade likes to blow by me when this happens. He keeps it up and I'll get an 850 X2. There are times when a little more power isn't a bad thing. My beast can pull about anything almost anywhere in low though.

I believe the BLM is trying to limit what can be put on the trails. Nothing over 50" and now trying to limit CC's. Trails are getting torn up. Side by side market is going to be all Desert/ open terrain riding. This will bolster the 2 up market as well as the no passenger laws that more and more states are enforcing. Why have all that size and horsepower on the trails. Might as well be in a Jeep.
