Pretty close. Does not look like a runaway by any means.

Close enough that a well tuned clutch could make a difference either way.

I would like to follow that canned ham in the summer when all those nasty bugs are out.

The XP got a little jump off the start. It was real close. But like I have said before. I did not buy my machine to drag race it on the street.....

Yeah I saw the smoke coming out of the exhaust. I wonder what that was all about.

Its about oil going into the combustion chambers probably spent its short life getting the run out of it just like in this video trying to justify its good for something, but he was

On De-cel it's probably the guides or guide seals, valve that is.
The RZR probably is not as broken-in as the Commie either.

from what I see there and running that distance I am pretty damn sure I can smoke em both. Low gear is good for 48 didnt look like the were going that fast.

I sat in a Commander X with dual motoworks exhausts today at the dealer......The seats are awesome, and it sounds just plain wicked.

The XP jumped on the start. So that helps you take the lead. But yeah, he spun the rear wheels....

Funny, the can am was beat, its smoking like a 61 ford, it has a 125cc bigger motor which makes this even more pitiful. But i agree the seats are nice

The Canam smoking cracks me up Well this video just answered my question. The 900Xp doesnt need to line up against my 840 Teryx. ( not trying to sound cocky. I just havent seen a true life race yet between a 1000X v/s 900XP) But for the life of me I cant understand anybody that would buy a 1000X over the new 900XP. One of the guys I ride with has a 1000X and it is junk. I think the XP is a nice machine. IMO.

Saw an RZR towing a CanAm today that had broke his steering tie rods on some woops that did not bother the RZR at all!

This is what we had to do to my buddies practice race bike after his 1st practice in the woods .... Can-Am sent him a whole box of tie-rods for until they fix it.
