That is the question...Do I buy a Rhino or a RZR........

they are 2 completely different machines the rhino is utility and the razor not so much we have a rhino and it has been good to us we ride hard but if i were to do it again i would definately be buying a v twin either a tyrex or commander the rhino works well but is underpowered in comparison with the others but then again how can u compare a single lunger to a v twin ours is an 08 we bought before the tyrex was out if you are lookin for a sport/ utility i would be lookin at the tyrex or commander as for the razor it is more of a pure sport machine every one has their good and bad points just figure out what you want the machine 4

Just like Big Dawg said. They are 2 different machines. It all depends on what you plan on using it for. I love my RZR it's fun and all but I also hunt and it's not really that good for hunting.

Buy a canam and have the best.

So now I have given it a realt try out...Lift kit is in order..apparently..

So been researching this. There are a few different designs from lower shock lifts to top of the shock lift kits. Some are just a piece of metal(bracket) others look substantially different and a lot stringer.......Price ranges from $40 too $250.....

What the hell do i buy. has anybody put a 2" lift on a 2011 RzR..any advice apreciated!...Thinking of 28" tyres afterwards with a clutch kit!.....again advice appreciated! lol

 

[Murminator]

I think most of the 2" kits are dropped shock brackets I would go with the ones with "beefier" brackets some of them look like a flat chunk of aluminum they almost look like they would fold up under some harsh bumps.


BTW are you from Germany?.....bwahahahaha

 

[rancher]

be careful on what lift u buy. Not all lifts work on 2011 rzr. They will cause cv binding at full droop. Rubberdown customs and racertech will work, they changed them for the 2011.

 

[TommyTongue]

Gday.......

Thanks for advice all....will look into it......

Oh yeah and I'm Australian....alledgedly!!!lol.....................

You saw my T-rex this past week-end it has a 2" lift which just drops the shock. No problems here but not sure about the razor. I'm a firm believer in lift/ tires and drive it.

Rhino man the only thing you have to worry about with it is the drive belt. On a RZR the axles snap really easily.

oh please don't let rzrgade hear that, he will come unglued, he eats breaths and goes to bed dreaming about polaris. i think he is a latent yank, must have grown up not being able to find the north star, he has been following that polaris star ever since. maybe someone should tell him it's just not the same.

Sounds good. I can bring beer. Looking forward to the trip already. It was a pants down/lost day for you. If I remember it was more like 200 yards off the trail. We ran out of beer and you panicked
