Honestly , I seen enough with the one we tried out ....
It was brutal. Not knocking Honda , but they won't work where we ride ...
It was very disappointing.

One of our brothers at Nordegg has the Honda SxS that had tranny issues, but it's fixed up and on the go.

Fun unit as it clips right along in the mountains. Pretty smooth for him and his furry friends too get out doors

Yes it's depends on the use , but a true work utility &geared too should never be in the same sentence.
Nice rig ,but lots of issues ...expensive issues .

They all seem to have their issues at times.

Good thing we have a fire fighter in our group !!
Can't start a fire by him self , good at putting them out ... though !
Yup they all burn , its most likely about maintenance ( or lack there of lol)....
Some people just don't maintain / clean and or check things to prevent stuff like that from happening.
But , clearly no one has had more recalls than Polaris due to fire issues ...
That is a fact.
Make sure the guys you ride with maintain there stuff , check for skeg , fix stuff properly BEFORE there is an issue .
Otherwise, you will be riding by yourself ....cause no one wants to waste there time fixing some ones else's POS machine that was never maintained ...

Don't be that guy

Have you looked at those new defenders Larry ? They have a bit less power than the old ranger , little less ground clearance.... and get this !! ( less rolllovers)
Stock with 25 " non aggressive tires ... !

Looks like CANAM was thinkin about you when they built these suckers !
It's time you pulled the trigger & upgraded ... you would be pleased no doubt about it / Rainy creek / well not so much ....

And rebates on now $$$ &
Could save a buck or two !

It's a win / win deal ...
It's time to step up

I also know a guy / who knows a guy that can get you a deal on that new Textron, now there is a machine ....!
Double roll cage bars ...just thinkin out loud !
