I was wondering how many of you have rolled your RZR and if any damage occured? How much did that roll cost you?

I haven't but my son tipped it on its side in deep sand. The only damage was a slightly tweaked pro-armor door that will be fixed easily this month when it all comes apart for powdercoating. You really have to look hard to see the damage. The fun part was when his 3 year old son, my oldest grandson walks up before my son could think to tell me about it and said "daddy flipped the rzr" The look on his face was priceless.

As you said......Yet. Its not a question of if but when. I dont think anyone intends to. I always thought theres no way I'll ever do that but make one mistake, choose one wrong line etc etc and over you go. I only crushed my left front flare and broke off my gopro mount and a few scratches. Harnesses kept me in place and no damage to me. Thats the important part. Havent flipped the new xp ....................Yet. Theres an old biker saying that there are only two types of riders ,those that have gone down and those that will.
Be prepared, install harnesses and wear them every time you ride regardless of speed or length of trip. When you can afford it look into upgrading your cage. Suspension seats not only are more comfortable and look better they keep you in place in the event you turn /roll over and help absorb the impact instead of your lower back . Everybody knows you should wear a helmet but me included doesnt all the time. we're working on that trying to wear it more often. Be safe ,have fun and ride the wheels off.

I was in my Ranger, 3 of us strapped in a bench seat.... Working my way up Patton Hill in the dunes the back way. Went kinda like this------ Side-roof-side- then back on its wheels, never missed a beat and just kept on going.... I have not rolled the XP.......yet.

bright and sunny day, get in my garage and hop in my rzr le red sunset. drive out onto the parking lot. smelling fresh air, a staff member on a atv backs out in front of me, I swerve to avoid him, nearly hit my car, sweve again to avoid the car, hit the curb and roll down a small sand hill down to the beach. 8 hours old and now wrecked. totaled. no insurance, finger is injuried, no fatalities, complete loss, stupid

Rolled it twice, no injuries, second one really tweaked the cage (pushed back the right front about 6") so it's got a new one. I never just replace so the new one is a custom built upgrade. In the sand both times so just a couple of scuffs on the bodywork. I did install some "easy slide furniture movers" on the inside of the bodywork where the frame has a tendency to poke through prior to the first rollover, that saved the bodywork.

I installed 4 point belts before it ever saw dirt. That's the single biggest reason no one was hurt in the roll overs. I also educate all riders to hang onto the belts or the OS handle, basically the same mantra for a roller coaster "Keep your arms and legs inside the cage at all times". And no one rides without the belt, you walk if you refuse. I won't be responsible for doing that to someone I like.

On a Friday in October a week before my dad and I were leaving for my 21st bday for Mexico and we decided to free some stress and took the rzr out near my house, my dad was driving and he went to go break the rear tires out around a corner and it caught and ejected us from the rzr. He was in the immediate care next day with arm and leg wounds and I had ass wounds. Thankfully it was only cosmetic damages on the rzr and we fixed it already :) all we could say was "sh*t happens and we had fun..."

Flinstoned it once rolled it once. I was accidentally doinga doughnut and BAM!!! On the side it went. Was able to unbuckle and lift it up. It's east to flip back over yourself if you do it from the inside. About 100.00 in cosmetic damage. Know when I rolled it, it went over on the drives side spun on the top did a 360 then flopped on the passenger side. $2800.00 on that one. I love insurance.

Rolled completely once. Landed back on my wheels luckly. Totaled the bed, the bed supports, and the rear support for the bed as well. Crunched the radiator support a little bit. No damage to the radiator though. I think it tweeked the cage a little bit. I was going over 40 mph down hill. I think the sand was a little forgiving considering how fast I was going lol. Have been VERY cautious ever since lol
Thanks
