    Speed UTV

    To be fair, those were Robbys words. He said he was restrained by bean counters at both Polaris & Arctic Cat. He vowed to be different. It was not hard to believe him, especially in the early days as it was legit and he had well known people behind the project. Guys like Weddle said, this is...

    New Polaris Pro R

    All 2025 Pro R models come with this one piece cast thermostat housing. It started at a race part that became production. About 6 months ago on one of the Polaris race shop talk videos they talked about this part, and being developed for the factory race team and then made into production.

    Speed UTV

    Not good! I’ve said it before, the best thing that could happen is Speed hires a CEO to run the day to day and to hire the proper people for each dept. This would let RG & TR do what they do best which is design the products, but let someone else manage it on a professional level. They have to...

    Speed UTV

    Super old video from years ago. RG just reposted it and everyone thinks it’s something new. That’s the NC shop for reference, which was sold a couple years ago to Tesla. I’m not sure why RG is rehashing old info? But so many are thinking it’s new, so I guess it worked??

    Generators what do you like

    How do you like the Wen? I’m looking at the Wen 3600 dual fuel one, as it’s still portable enough to load in a truck or take somewhere, but has the 30 amp plug so I could plug into my house panel and run necessities during an outage.

    Sean, speaking about the trans being almost identical to the Polaris XP turbo trans. I thought I heard that there were a few gears or shafts that AC discontinued to sell. Is this correct? And if so, could the Polaris version be used, or is Weddle or someone making internal parts for the XX...

    Would you buy this?

    Long story, but the guy that owned Predator. He had two 4 seat Predators made. I don’t remember the whole story on them? A few years later I stumbled upon one and I almost bought it. It was sort of a Frankenstein, not because it was a 4 seater, but because it was based on the X18, but the rear...

    Would you buy this?

    Not sure how many remember the Arctic Cat Havoc X? It was probably the first true crossover utility sport UTV. It was wider then its predecessor and came with 2.5 King Shocks. The engine was built by Weber. (MPE 1000 (957cc) twin cylinder liquid-cooled SOHC 8 valve 4-stroke) it was a dry sump...

    Would you buy this?

    Only way your getting a Rotax is through Can Am. BRP who is Can Am owns Rotax. Rotax does build and supply motors to other companies, but a few years ago I was told that Rotax will not sell to any competitor brands in the Powersports industry. But I do agree that would be a killer engine. I’d...

    Would you buy this?

    I mentioned the patents on post 18, and speculated that RGM probably gets nothing from those as part of the terms of the AC release contract. I could be wrong, but TR brought up one time about them not getting royalties, but that they won their court case. Which has since been overturned. Also...

    Would you buy this?

    Unfortunately that is why that round of AC ownership failed and eventually sold to Textron, as they were months away from filing bankruptcy. Textron saved Arctic Cat. Then unfortunately again Textron did nothing to make the brand what it once was. I never understood why they even bought it...

    Would you buy this?

    What about them? For one, AC has the rights to use any & all patents. I’m told when the two parted ways, some of the terms were royalties were dropped, but that was also I think RGM thought they would get it in the court case, which they won, and later was overturned. To the best of my knowledge...

    Would you buy this?

    100% and that would be the hope that a established powersport company would buy the AC brand, and their foundation and network already in place would make getting parts, getting dealer support and overall trying to grow the product better. With the current owners of AC, they never cared about...

    Would you buy this?

    This would not be a direct competitor to the Pro R’s and Mav R’s. Those are the top of the food chain vehicles, and their price points show it. This hypothetical UTV would be competing with brands in the low to mid $20K range, as that’s still a very strong market share nationwide. Polaris...

    Would you buy this?

    This was not in reference to the original Wild Cat, but in reference to the wild Cat XX platform. The XX chassis, roll cage and suspension design is very good and from a geometry standpoint is better then the radius rod design rear suspension the other brands are doing. I would hope the car...

    Would you buy this?

    What would it take to sell your current UTV or UTV you have on order? Would you buy a UTV based on the Arctic Cat Wild Cat XX, with minor body & cockpit change improvements, that comes in a 2 or 4 seat configuration. It would have a 1000cc, 3 cylinder low boost turbo for reliability, that...

    Speed UTV

    Speed does not come with or offer a tool to open the secondary clutch, but it’s designed to open using a small crows foot pry bar. HM makes a bitchen (but expensive) tool to open the secondary and locks it open so if you had to get strands out of it, it’s allot easier and less scary of getting...

    New scam tactic: Close to a hundred emails such as website sign ups to mask the fraudulent charge on your card.

    Anytime a charge is processed to my CC’s, or debit cars, I get a email & text message notice. I also have two factor authentication if you try to log on to my accounts. In the past year someone tried to buy stuff using my card #, but I caught it instantly because of the text alert. I locked...

    Speed UTV

    I did not think it had anything to do with RG? I thought we were talking about Ford trucks, I-beams and a roll over. Do you have Speed derangement syndrome? Not everything is an about RG. Don’t let him live in your head rent free. Sorry for talking trucks & Rangers on this shit show of a...
