Marty , Did you Drive and S or a regular one.
There is alot of difference in an S and a regular RZR.
I drove them too.
and pates Rhino ran good. But it ant no match
for these things. there just Crazy Fast.

You can fight it like i did.
and keep riding the Yamaha boat.
I loved my rhino , i will never say nothing bad
about it. But there not in an S's League .
if it was. I would still have it. .......

But you can keep beating the dead horse if you
want to. I got tired of it , So i joined the Dark Side...
and loving every Minute...

No, i drove a regular and not an S Chris. But, I drove a regular with the stock wheels and tires and I can assure you that the 26" heavy Bighorns eat up most of the High Outputs extra Power. There is not much difference there. And there is not much difference between a regular RZR and Pates Rhino. A little maybe, a lot no way.


And................i'm perfectly happy with my Rhino.


No argument from me. The RZR S's Power is definately a factor in it's performance advantages over the Rhino. It's just the amount of extra power is not as impressive to me as it is others. Thats all.

Marty, there is night and day between the two, we understand some are not impressed by power and performance and thats fine, but dont be a of those of us that do. Its all good the SSXSR's have room for everybody no mater what make or model they have.

I am talking about the group I ride with on a regular basis.

i have the 09 s but I really like the white 10! Did they change anything other than color?

Nope , just body color and wheel color....

I had them put a Governor on Gunny's ,
So mine would be faster.....

I got to say I can understand why you all are getting in to the rzr s because to me the rhino is like a utility atv while the rzr s is more like a sport atv with more of a thrill factor. But unless Yamaha comes out with something competitive I will have to stick with my old turtle(I bleed Blue). Reason being When I bought my first bike I had an axle break months after warrenty ran out and I called my dealer they called Yamaha and within hours I had a new 400$ axle in the mail (at no cost to me) and as long as they are willing to take care of me like that I will never own anything else.

so for now I will have to hang onto my Raptor 700 (with way to many mods to list)for when I want a thrill.

I'm so sad. I keeping reading about the Rzr S and thinking that they will be able to go places my Rhino can not. But then again I remember that they are wider, coat the driver in mud, and have a free wheeling engine brake. Come to think of it I bet the Rhino will go places the Rzr S can not. The Rzr may be faster but not more capable....

Congrats to everyone that buys one. That just means I have to carry my chainsaw less...



HAHA....

Now if I was buying today and did not need a 4 seater... It would be the 50" wide Rzr with skids, rockguards, and Walker Evans Shocks.

At Brimstone , we went through some
pretty serious stuff. The S's made pretty light work
of it.....

I understand what you saying about how wide thay
are , but here is the way i figure it. My Rhino
with spacers was 57 7/8 in the back. and i could go
anywhere the little RZR's could go. and the S is 60.
So we are really only talking a little over an inch on each
side. not saying that wont make a difference. but as
Tim Moore said , with his S , he can go everywhere
most others will go , You just need to pay a little
more attention to what your doing....

I wont debate a Rhino , it is still a great machine.
you will never hear me talk bad about one.

All , I will tell people is go drive an S in the woods.
I dont mean in a parking lot at the dealer...

I mean a real test drive. and you will buy one....

After a real test ride here is what happens.
if you have the money , you will buy one.
if you dont have the money , you will want to borrow
it. if you cant borrow it , you will want to
Steal it.......

I understand but there is one flaw in your thinking.... i DID NOT BUY IT TO IMPRESS YOU OR ANYONE ELSE! i BOUGHT IT CAUSE IT IMPRESSED ME!

Sure is beginning to take that look about the S, but it dont matter anyway cause you have what you want in your garage and we have what we want in ours. I dont dislike rhinos i just like the rzr's better.

hell.... give em hell....... hey gunny, do you remember what mike and betty had...
was it the regular or the "S"..... Either way, i know i kept up with them two and i
would have passed em if it hadnt of got foggy that day up at windrock.. i stayed on
their butt a good 3 or 4 miles... i showed em how a bigg ol bubba can ride....
I just dont sit on my quad.... I ride it!
i empressed the hell out of em... he said he tried to leave me but i
stayed right on his butt.

My Rhino was 59-3/4 with the wheels/tires I ran, no difference.........really. When my 27x10 Big-Horns come for the rear of the S, and I ditch the 12's, which to me, are too much . The roost-factor will increase 10-fold. Bring your stock S on 27x12's on.............I'll gain 4 h.p. instantly

Gunny, I do believe that I was responding to a statement by you, to me that said there was a difference of "night and day" between the machines. So in fact you were trying to impress me with that fact. I never said i wasn't impressed by the machine at all. I simply stated that I was not that impressed to call it a "night and day" difference.
