--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I just sat in, touched and looked over a 2009 Razor. The MSO says 2009 and so does the shipping label. No changes like we keep hearing about.  Disppointed you bet! Was hoping for something more on improvements. Here is what I noticed:These are changes I noticed from my first generation Rzr.

1. Still 760 cc motor
2. The shoulder/arm net has been replaced with Plastic protector
3. Indentition in the floor board where your heel/foot rest
4. Storage box on the side of drivers box with lid that has same kind of fasterner as hood and motor cover
5. Muffler seems to come out further and also has an exhaust tip that is turned down to help with noise and fumes
6.Where the exhaust pipe come out of the exhaust header there is an added heat sheild to stop debris from laying on pipes
7. The air filter systems looks the same as the 2008, air cleaner is paper and has the sock on it
8.This really is a draw back, their are no more backup/work lights on the Rzr and the switch on the dash is gone too. Bad deal!
9. Foot gas pedal spring does feel stiffer??
I could be mistaken but I visually I noticed no other changes, could be wrong but that is all I noticed. I sold my 2008 for a 2009.

Like John Wayne once said " Life is tough but even toughter if your stupid!

Now lets hope Polaris has done something for the Rangers. I have my doubts after this disappointment.
