I don't have one but my aunt's nephew just bought a second one. I heard the newest one is pretty damn fast but I've never been on either one.

Mine has about 100 hp, the new turbo ones are pushing 160-170.. Really too much power unless your in the desert or sand. These things handle crazy good and ride so nice over pretty much everything

yeah they are. a blast, I have a couple buddies with the new Turbo ones but they are always breaking something every time they go out. Expensive hobby for sure. My buddy also has an older N/A I believe 700 RZR and that thing is stone cold reliable. I think the Turbo ones just make to much power and seem to just fuck shit up.

That's what they say, they usually take them up to their dads property up in Washington City or town. Hopefully sometime soon I'll get to see what these things are all about because I see people ride these in the sand hauling ass.
