Re: Has anybody gotten theirs yet?

Steering concern has been taken care of. All is good now. You should have yours soon.

Re: Has anybody gotten theirs yet?

New ITP tires & wheels makes it look much much better. I hated them black wheels...

Re: Has anybody gotten theirs yet?

there has been a recall on the steering rack, Probably be other ones to follow,as well as lawsuites from tip overs. I hate to say i told you so, but you never buy the first year of any vehicle for this exact reason, especially a POOlaris.

Re: Has anybody gotten theirs yet?

the recall on the steering rack is supposed to have been corrected, that's why they are taking so long to deliver.. they put a hold on all deliveries for the last couple of weeks. from what i've heard, they've corrected the problem on all of the affected units and started delivering units as of last thursday.
my delivery date was supposed to be may 8/9 and i still havent seen it yet..
i did talk to my dealer and he said the polaris rep called and told him that it was on a trailer in the area and would be delivering over the next day or two.. fingers and toes are sore from being crossed smile

Re: Has anybody gotten theirs yet?

I got mine yesterday.  It hauls a@@!  Its way faster than a Rhino.  It goes a little better than 55 than a governor kicks in.  It corners good, the brakes are good, and side by side seating is comfortable with two 6 foot guys that are 200+ lbs. 

Now I just need my wheels, they're back ordered.

Re: Has anybody gotten theirs yet?

Well, I've got 120 miles on it, and it kicks butt.

Handling

On fire roads it pushes a little.  I think lowering the air pressure on the fron tires or rear wheel spacers should help this.  If traction is good, it wants to go sraight.  It doesn't feel as narrow as it looks. 

Shifting

It takes a while to get used to.  From park to a gear grinds if you don't pay attention.  Whoevever designed the belt drive for the RZR needs to be awarded.  It uses all of the power, and does not feel mushy like a Rhino.

Low speed 4x4ing

It three wheels, and when it rocks over it is scary.  Off camber is not comfortable.  Line selection is critical because of the overall width.

Summary

It kicks A@@

PS

My wheels and tires are on backorder, and I haven't installed the wheel spacers yet.

Re: Has anybody gotten theirs yet?

Took it to the dunes over memorial day weekend.. it had .4 hours on the motor and 1 mile on the clock..
it now has 225 miles on it..
what an awesome machine.. i loved it i just rode and rode and rode (and put gas in it, uses a lot of gas)
and rod and rode..
really excellent little machine..
i have a full blown dune bike that i took also.. i rode it for about 10 or 15 minutes out of "respect" but other than that it sat on the trailer..
that says quite a bit when you leave your dune bike on the trailer and troll the dunes in a big red golf cart.
i had no problems getting around.. it will hang with the big dogs.. turning and climbing and jumping are all awesome..
