Just made the purchase today and took it for a ride with my mom and dad. To be brand new and not broken in yet, this thing really drives good and handles great. The ride is very, very smooth, the belt drive and throttle were a little hard to get use to at first because I wasn't use to anything like that. Overall I love it, and so does my parents. I can see why Side x Side's are so popular!

Congrats on the new ride Brandan. cheers Are the 2" spacers on that one? It does not look like the rear wheels are sticking out as far as i've seen them with the spacers.

The salesman at the dealership said it had the 2" spacers on it. I'm guessing the pictures just dont show it very well, but in person you can tell the rear tires stick out further than the front, and when riding behind it.

Sweet bro!!!!!!!!!! You can put a set of 1-inch spacers on the front and it will diminish the push factor due to the 2's on the rear.

Yeah, I plan to get a windshield before long, probably also buy some fender flares once I get my ITP rims and tires drive Also plan to add rear bumper, a light bar on the roof at some point, and 2 PIAA lights on the front bumper. You can customize these things like crazy! maybe more than a vehicle..

Nah, haven't ordered any wheels or tires yet. For tires ill probably either get a set of 26" ITP Mudlite XTR's, or maybe Maxxis Bighorns. For wheels ill be going with the 12" ITP SS212 Machined rims.

Sounds like a plan. I personally would go with the XTR's before the Bighorn's.

that hood scoop is bad to the bone ! where is the air directed to ? I have thought of some way to direct some air on the enclosed motor and this looks like it might work. how did you install it !

great man, i really like it !

It's just a fake scoop, but you could cut out some of the hood and direct the air into the breather if you wanted. As for mounting, it's easy as pie to line up, then just drill three 1/4" holes and snap the plastic screws into place.

Here is the link to the Hood scoop.
