I do.

Will the 900 HO kit drop in price? Honestly, I don't think enough changed to make me want to drop a practically new rzr if the HO kit is more affordable. That would be considerate of Polaris and a good option for the consumer.

Why no beadlocks?

Will there be a more affordable version with that hp we all want? I.e., no power steering, no led floorlights, iPod hookup, etc.

Why does it not come standard with harnesses since that's the number 1 upgrade all avid riders install?

What features on the new 1000 can be applied to 2011-2013 900 XPs, if any?

This is my biggest problem with the new design. Why oh why would you keep this? I know they are snowmobile guys and it makes them feel warm and fuzzy inside to see an elastic band stretched over clutches but really? Lets look at the fundamental differences a snowmobile ingests cold nearly freezing to well below freezing air and maybe a little bit of snow. Ensuring that a sled gets cold air on the belt without too much snow isn't really a big deal. A SXS on the other hand ingests hot to smoking hot air, along with dust, dirt, water and mud. Keeping that all out while ingesting enough air to maintain a very small temperature differential between the air and belt / clutches is an impossible task why would you ever even try it?

Love the Machine and it's new features.
The seat room is what I always wanted
Acceptable horsepower
Much better suspension. Shocks are Sachs or Walker Evans-or are they one of the same?
Looks are much improved, especially over that blue 4 seater.
I hope the seats are as comfy as they look
My question, where can I get one for 17,000???

I'm going to say no... The reason I say no is because next year I see them all going to that body style, the 800 are getting old and will need another face lift so the people asking for a new 800 they're going to get it next year with new plastic and the same boring outdated 800... But that's just my thoughts

1. I wonder if the suspension components will take the abuse aggressive riders dish out every weekend?

2. I wonder if the riders who complained about canam's throttle by wire will be satisfied with Polaris's?

3. I wonder when the massive rebates will become available to compete with the top of the line maverick and wildcat.

4. When will shifting from low to high become standard in the rzr family?

5. What is the fuel economy for this beast ?

6. Does Polaris intend to offer extended warranty in house for their halo product or pass the fire to Assurant ?

7. How big of a seat of pants difference between the 900ho and the new 1000cc xp when factoring in the weight of the two machines.

8. Why is the display information still out of sight instead of behind the steering wheel?

9. Does it come standard with a full body skid plate?

10. Who's idea was it to beat Can-am's halo product by only 6hp?

11. What justifies this RZR to be better than the Wildcat X that's 1500 cheaper not including a rebate?

12. Why does Polaris have four separate two seater rzr frames in their lineup when one universal frame would keep the prices in check?

13. Does the transmission have a reverse chain like the 900xp?

14. Why only 13.5 inches of ground clearance with 29" tires?

15. Does the new xp have good mud, water, and dirt splash protection?

I can't wait to get behind the wheel of this machine, and despite some of my annoying questions above I'm excited.

Personally, i'm not to thrilled about the new look, i just think they tried to like curve it to much or something. Not saying it is horrid or nothing, i just think it kinda looks odd. The taillights really look like the kittykats taillights, and the front kinda looks like its been snubbed off a little. I do like the interior on it, and looks like the ride would be smooth and the feel would be very comfy, but i dunno it just seems outta place or something. Glad it stayed at 64 inches, because thats what my XP is and really any wider and it would be a bad thing for the trail areas i ride in. Im sure this is the best thing since sliced bread to some folks, but im still on the fence about it.

1. Can I swap the cyl, pistons & head to my 875 to make a 999cc engine ??

2. Why Throttle by Wire ??

3. Why shifting from low to high on the fly isn't standard ??

4. Why the same speed\info gauge & why in the center still ?? I love the Can-Am style.....

5. Why $20K ?? $18,999 seems resonable & competitive to the current market.....

6. Why not bring production back to the States, maybe a more TAX friendly state like TX or TN ect.....?? Well, i guess that brings us back to question #5.....Bottom line PROFIT.....:rm_thumbdown:
