My 2016 Yamaha YXZ thread.......

Ordered, Deposit done.............Dec. 4th delivery date.....Blue and White......

Bring it on up when you get it, let everyone know how it performs @ Windrock.

I will..............It's all about naysayers right now....That will pass. I've been in one.....

Another  2 Death-Machines bite the dust...........Today..
Yeah they are sand-tards but...Think I'll put my wife or kid in this??? Nah.......

Pate I am excited to see your new Yamaha. I have no doubt it is a great machine.

However, I put my family in a XP 900 every time I ride and it has never burned to the ground. Also, I do not know anyone who's RZR has burned to the ground.

I think it's mostly the desert guys Ronnie. Never seen pics of a RZR burning in the woods. Well, except maybe one or two.. I guess they run them so long and so hard in the sand. They just ca'nt take the heat, so to speak!

These 2 were full built race machines. Hard to guess at all the mods they had done to them. Hard to blame these on Polaris. Yea sure some burn, but a lot are cus of people carrying gas in the bed.

Congratulations Pate! I am excited to see your buggy when you get it!

They may have put nitrous on them to show off

Trip just drove it for that race. Not his buggy tho. Hel prob drive it in some more races. But ur right Wel know how well they hold up.

if its not his , who ever owns it is crazy to let him drive it , cause its going
to end up on the roof....

Boy you got that right!  Just a lot of nice people here. This thing will revolutionize the side x side world. Best part about it is not having to sacrifice quality the way you have to with say...Polaris.

Speaking of Polaris,  anybody know what Polaris stands for...?

Will be sometime in January for me-- very interested your ride report ridepate when you get that toy home..
Congrats!

Seems production in Newnan has pushed it back a little....Grrrrrr. The factory is 24/7 at about 160 units per 24hrs. Another @#$%$#@-seater has been thrown in the mix....

Pate , are you still going to get it DEC 4th. or is that pushed back too...

Im sure your backyard will still be there cant wait to hear about it!!

I was excited about them till I heard they don't have high and low range or a granny gear ...is this true pate ?

ive heard that the 1st gear is very low

Dave, there ain't no granny low to first gear. According to vids, it idles at 5 mph in first. All I can say is that my dirt bike idles at 7mph so I know there is no worry at using the clutch on this thang and hopping over rocks.....

.... I'll be sure to give a full report..

My first trail will be T 15 windrock .

... Will have at least 6month warranty!
