I think he means the 850 rsx i sport gators.
Nice machine , lots of power and very well built. They use an Aprilla sport bike v twin engine.
It is all john deere built and parts are half price of anything else. Great fit & finnish with the ability to factory order.
They are a lot faster than an 800 rzr but not near the 900 xp. Nice width at 54 inchs wide, and can handle 30 inch tires
Without a lift.
John deere is going to be a major player in the utv market as they have a few new releases coming soon that will mote than compete with the maverick/900 xp etc...
Really worth looking at IMO.....

At first i thought it would be a hunk of junk, but in hindsight i think it will be a major player just like rzrgade said. John Deere has a good name and no problems ever with parts.

I was wondering about their clutches, but i see you can still buy parts for their snowmobiles they built for a lot of years.

havent drove one but ive heard they are pretty impressive for what they are. ( a little more work/utility orientated )

In a few years when im looking at getting a sxs I like the commander and the new john deere. I'd be looking for something more utility oriented and both seem like good choices.

Ive driven the Gator 850i RSX. Its a great ride and lots of torque and power. Really good balance between work and play in my opinion! Used it to pull out a dock, then after went for a little mud run hahah
