You don't know what disappointment is, try waiting for a new Honda.

Arctic/Suzuki 1056cc, 4-stroke twin makes 125hp (stock) and 177-hp; 121-ft/lbs torque with turbo. 2012 Arctic Cat F1100 Turbo Sno Pro Limited Review [Video]

They just will not offer in into a machine that has balloon 5 psi off road tires, it just will not happen.

ATVing is a sport you do while you wait for snow to come.

If you like speed, get out of Atving. The 10 mph trails will kill a guy trying to do 40 mph let alone 100.LOL

I ride with a 800 Outlander and there no way he is going somewhere faster anybody else.

I,m lucky to get out of low range.

I do have a Polaris XC700 that hits 100 mph not problem but there are frozen flat lakes to do it on in safety.

I feel sorry for you Honda guys. The 38 hp Rincon with new exciting colors must be painful.

Have 3 riding buds that have Rinny's 2 of them have over 5000 miles. Both started spiting and sputtering just acting up almost at the same time. They would have to shut them down for a few minutes and then they would run ok for a while..... What we found was the filter on the fuel pumps were dirty. Rincons have two different gas filters and the fuel pump filter will get clogged after a few years. Other than that they have been very reliable.
The Polaris Xp's have the fuel pump in the tank and if and when it plugs the service manual says not serviceable. The fix is replace the gas tank with built in fuel pump. Can you believe that crap. (thanks Polaris)

I have one of these Mr.Funnels ( see home link ) been using it for years and they never wear out . Might be a good investment if your concerned about dirt in your tank . Maybe this is why I'v yet to have a carb problem I also shut off my fuel when the machine is not being used .

I'm hoping for metal racks, or at least high strength polymer plastic ones, there's something about Lock n Ride push pins I can't trust.
