Surprised I am first to post, Yamaha YXR1000r, new SXS

This looks pretty good, hopefully they come out with a 4 seater

    Price is in line with the canam and Polaris models. Yes a used jeep would be about the same price but wouldn't be allowed on the same trail systems.

    Personally I like it and think it is about time canam and Polaris have some competition. the transmission is very impressive...finally no belts! Love the fox suspension, similar to what my canam has and well worth the extra $$

    Like the big Polaris, it is 64" wide and NOT allowed on any USFS or BLM ATV/UTV trail system, only roads designated for jeeps and other motor vehicles.

  • About $20k and uses a manual clutch with sequential shift.
  • If you like the Raptor look, then I guess it may look "pretty good". Personally, I think it is ugly and will follow the usual Yamaha progression, 10 years before it gets any type of update. Price wise, a Jeep would be a better investment and take you more places, plus has 4 seats.
