Polaris to release their ONE seater

I wished they would concentrate more on fixing the problems they have with their other models but no doubt the one seater is cool. It is an "ace" of a machine

To be released later today. The "ACE"  

I agree with you. If they would devote a little more time to fixing their issues instead of a constant barrage of new models, it would be so much more productive. What is up with the humpback whale cage? That looks like fido's ass!

The whole thing looks like    to me!

Yes but a cage is easy to fix.  Is that with the Scrambler 1000?  it would be a beast

found out:
It has 32 HP where the Scrambler 1000 XPS has 89 - imagine a single seat 89 HP buggy

32hp, the whole thing is probily a cut down 570, maybe one day they build a big boy version.

Focused on kids and old people is what it is.. Nothing wrong with that. Just much differen't then what most people were expecting when they heard 1 seater RZR.. Thats just a 300cc sportsman with a cage and steering wheel.. It will probably sell ok though.. I mean I know a lot of old guy that use their quad for pretty much nothing but hunting and around the farm.. They would love to have a roof and windsheild, but aren't instrested in a SxS.

Could you imagine one with 900 motor and long arm kit!?

Looks like a winner in the 7000 market. Out in the woods having fun without spending 15000. There is a market.

I could see my youngest son driving one of those in a few years. He's six now. Would be safer then a quad. He started on a 50cc quad when he was 3. Replaced that for a gokart with a cage after a year or so cause he made me to nervous on the four wheeler. Turned it over a couple times and thought it was fun to put it on two wheels.. When he is ready to upgrade from his 200cc Kart that Ace would be pretty nice. I wouldn't want to turn a 8-9 year old loose in a 10k-20k RZR, but at the same time a smaller cc quad though its cheaper is IMO a little more dangerous in the woods and around barbed wire fences. I just like the idea of something with a cage that he can sit down in and wear a harness.

I've been thinking about what I'd put my kids in when the time came. Once they get to a point where they grow out of go-karts or a RZR170, these may the way to go. At 300cc they are just big enough to get the job done without being overly dangerous, they have a cage, they have four-wheel independent suspension, and they have a four-wheel drive system that works. Not bad, even though I'm pretty sure that's NOT what Polaris had in mind when designing it.

My thoughts exactly Will and Nathan. It isn't somethign that I would ever be interested in having for myself, but I think it might be an option for my son who will turn 10 in a few months. I think with a custom cage, it can be made into a good option for him. I will keep my eye on it over the next year or so to see what kind of problems they have and how they address them.
