Well you got till summer time too decide just deck the old rhino out, be cheaper than a s.

Gunny It probably would be less. However, I would hate to spend the money on the Rhino and not be happy. I can get a regular RZR and still be happy.

I just logged a few hundred miles on an 08 RZR and it was a lot of fun. Hell I don't think you have to have an S ..... it would just be nice to have one....... That was a lot of HAVES

Honestly Ronnie, where have you been that the Rhino did'nt go and a RZR did??? My answer would be nowhere.........Buy the Mid-Travel, ring-out the Rhino and smile..............BTW, I still miss mine........

Something is about to happen. If I do go with the RZR I will probably keep the old rhino just in case.

Good thinkin Ronnie. I have the RZR for the fun rides........the Rhino for everything else.

ronnie,i know its a hard decision,but you have already put alot of time and money in the rhino and,yes the rzr's are alot of fun but it aint worth selling the rhino for 8 or 9k then pulling out another 5k on an "S" ,model or 2k on a standard/LE,then putting 800$ in tires and wheels,and another 2k in mods on the rzr............just keep what ya got for now,then in late august 10' trade and get ya the rzr killer-made by yamaha

I think everyone knows where my vote goes................

right there with ya mud&guts

Believe me, I have thought this same thing over and over. However, it is a good possibility that Yamaha will not do

Ronnie donnt blow up your motor just because you want about 5-6 more hp,but it is entirely your decision

I doubt Yamaha is going to make a "RZR killer". I don't think anyone out there is even in the same league right now (talking stock machines). The RZR is by far the best trail machine, IMO. And that is not a knock on any other machines. From what I have seen this year (all things considered) nothing touches the RZR. Not trying to start any crap with anyone. I like all the machines. I am just saying when I was driving the Rhino and then jumped in two or three RZR out on the trail, it was apparent to me that if I wanted to gain the power and sportiness I was looking for, I was going to have to have a RZR. Don't get me wrong......I LOVE the Rhino, especially with the power steering. BUT, Yamaha will have to go back to the drawing board to make something to compete with the RZR. First and foremost, the Rhino is extremely heavy. You pair that weight with a single cylinder engine and rigid suspension.........well, you connect the dots. Again, not bashing any brand.....just giving my opinion.

yamaha was skeered to even release there 4 door the developed, so dont look for anything outstanding from them, they are gun shy from being sued so many times.

And no shame in buying a regular rzr, set it up right and its as good as a s for trail riding. I would have put my le up against a s any day except flat out top end running.

Just wait for the Canam

Are you kidding on this. Because I have heard that it is ready to go. The economy stop it's release. I can't wait to see this one. I bet it will not be $14,000.

But it will be the fastest and best handling one. Whats the big deal if you have to wait another month or two. All im saying is don't jump.

Yeah the R might be up to something........ 787??????

The Rhino will go to the lake and finally do what I bought it for. Hauling coolers, fire wood and just having a damn good time down there.

Dont buy a rzr ! I know i dont want to be lookin at you all the time with a big eating grin on your face

i know it,here is what I think yamaha should have in a new sxs.
750/800 V-twin EFI
56-58" wide
stock with bighorns/growlers/xtr's
sligltly lowered cage

put a Rotax or Kawi motor in your Rhino

I am hoping that Kawasaki will put that 750 in some kind of sport machine. Now that would be nice!!!!

i am hoping that yamaha will put a 750/800 V-twin but i doubt they will

Smith, I doubt it too. They do not have a 750 or a 800 twin in any of there bikes. They would have to make an engine and that probably will not happen. They do have a 650 and a 950 twin I think. But they are in their road bikes. They do not have a twin in any off road machine..... yet.

They have 2, 3, and 4 cylinder BADA$$ 4 stroke snomobile engines! Look at some of those HP numbers, they have the engines/technology they just have to make them fit and not get sued. There 2 cylinder 499cc pumps out over 80HP
