Congrats Pate. Hopefully the Rzr will be everything you want for at least a year. Time to start Modding all over again. $$$$$$$

You know, after the sticker-shock,the real immediate need is some good belts for my son. I'm not going crazy on this thing, I really see no need.

it dont need much , its already got it covered.....

Did you sell the Rhino?

On your comment about double footing.....are the gas and brake that far apart?

Oh yeah......I am jealous.

Double footing is due to a really poor engine brake. You have to give the Rzr gas and push the brake at the same time. Fairly easy but really suk'd when I was coming down the switchbacks into Circleville on the Paiute trail last year. Nothing like a 1500ft dropoff and a tight switchback at 7am in 27F temps to make your heart pound while trying to deal with brakes and gas at the same time....

My favorite use for the RZR in Utah was the wide open trails. The Rzr will hold 55mph all day...

Dave,
A hauler is comming to get it Friday, her new home will be in Texas. The gas and the brake are too close together, well closer than the Rhino, takes a little getting used to.

Dang Pate -- That is what I call a sell!! The Rhino is going all the way to TX. Someone must really want that Rhino.... That in itself is a pat on the back to a great Rhino you built!

Hush roamerr, I'll have to make the head in his avatar bigger !!

Honestly, And remember the S aint broke-in yet. The Rhino can clean it's clock from a 10 MPH kick to 30, no doubt. But after that seee-yaaaa.

And remember the S aint broke-in yet.

Remember -- the S is a Polaris. The engine is not one of those tight sportscar engines that is mic'd to the millionth. It ain't gonna get faster with age unless you modify it. Race it, time it, clock it now -- it's all downhill from new...


(LOL)

For what it's worth I do like to see more people get Rzr S's. That means the trails will be wider and my Rhino will be able to slip through even easier...

shoot rhinos are like the enterprise, go where no utv has gone before. I heard that one dealer in the area has been giving chainsaws away with each S purchased

Bump for the next one!

Its okay pate, we know you have to stroke the rhino guys since you've always been so down on the popo. Good thing old blue has left the state or i would love to see you prove that statement!

Old Blue is still there. Line em up with Mike Pate and give us a report.

There is no report to give Marty.
it would be a Joke....

Let old Blue leave with some dignity....

I rode Pate's blue Rhino. It is a fine machine, but in an all out race through the woods it would not be close. The suspension on the S lets you fly through the woods where the Rhino would beat you to death. I love the Rhino.....but the S is an awesome machine. Tim Moore was ripping up those coal roads last night while I was riding bitch. No way the Rhino would have stuck to the road like that.
