I think Polaris thinks there is gas stations on the trails or people just do short 2 hour rides.

Here's how I would do it. Start w/an Outlaw IRS chassis. Keep the center-mounted rear outlet exhaust, it looks cool. Modify it to accept the XP 850 powertrain, AWD, EPS, and big gas tank. No "racks", except for a small spot behind the rider to tie stuff down at. Minimal sporty plastic, I like the new scrambler front plastic and scale up the phoenix 200 rear plastic. Keep the XP 850 front grill w/o the headlights. Give it a premium handlebar mounted dual headlight/instrument pod similiar in looks to the polaris Rush sled. 25" tires, but keep the 14" wheels. I actually like the Outlander 800 Xxc the best between it and the Renie, but Can-Am wants so much money for the things, and I'm too brand loyal to Polaris to buy anything else.
