Its definatley not what I expected. I didn't think they would come out with something that narrow.

Where was this? AZ, is that MM 11.5 by Lake Pleasant? Any news on when they are releasing and how much? That is awesome and looks better than the Rhino? IMO

Its not going to be released until late spring/early summer
800 EFI motor, it sounds just like the Sportsman 800, my neighbor has one so I know what that motor sounds like. They had 10-15 of them over at this spot where I go riding by lake pleasant. |

If in fact that is an 800cc motor in it I'll be willing to bet it flies. It looks a lot more compact than a Rhino. Possilby lighter. Looks like they may finally have the seating and steering wheel angles at a more comfotable position too. I just can't get over it looking like a Honda Odysey.

Im all for the competition, but that is definitely ugly IMO. Looks like alot less ground clearence and quite abit narrower. The 800 engine will be nice.

Ugly IMO. And it looks so narrow it will just flop over in a high wind. No bed on the rear means no option for making it a four seater... Were is the motor? is it behind the seats or in front. Hard to tell, but it doesnt look like there is room between like the rhino. I like the higher sides to keep you legs in, and the nets are good. But I agree, much better than the Ranger!

Seats are really low so it might be pretty stable.

I think it looks pretty darn good. I'm a ranger owner as it is now, but I can say I was definitely expecting something more Ridge Runner like. But, from the looks of it the couple of things I like is that it's approach and departure angles are fantastic and near vertical, the seats are nearly on the floorboard, which is huge for COG, cornerig, etc, and I just hope that the front/rear weight bias isn't too extremely tilted toward the rear.
I do with the bed was a little bigger, because it definitely looks really tiny. From what I understand it's not complete or the final version, so maybe if we talk about it enough on these forums we might be able to get them to make it a tad bigger/more functional. I'd at least like to put enough gear in the back for a camping trip and the size of it appears like only small stuff can fit. Chris |

if youre buying off road equipment for its looks only, then youre a chick (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bugsy2.gif)
looks only play a SMALL part of the entire package. It does look smaller, even smaller than the rhino. The top of the cage looks to be under 6 ft? With it being so small, why did they need to put a twin in it?? |

I actually think it looks pretty good, except I would have liked to see a more sporty look to the nose/hood. But trying to get a weekend's worth of camping gear in that bed would be tough, real tough.
