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

Now a RZR 4 with a 900 might just make be go buy one... I have been on the fence about a RZR 4 already. I don't wanna buy one and let it sit in the garage all the time while I am out on my XP 550

Not crazy about the side by sides, there are some sections of the trails that there to wide to make it through, and your getting away from the sport,might as well buy a good used jeep.

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.
