If I was only trail , dirt or rocks I think they are perfect. I had a teryx and shit you not my sister took that thing off a 10’ drop off And only screwed up the plastics a bit and slightly caved in the A arm point of attachment on left side. Luckily no one got hurt. Everyone was surprised it wasn’t trashed.

Built nice, and handle well. Great for rock crawling with a wet clutch. Very slow though. It is the slowest 1000cc car.

65 mph is fast enough for the average off roader.

Appears the Polaris is good in a straight line.

For the right price the kawi is a good buy. Average speed in havasu in my X3 is half throttle. You cant use all the hp in 90% of the ride

Found one in Las Vegas at Ride Now on Rancho $19,500, that’s a $1000 off msrp. They had 3 blue ones. Handles pretty good, not as good as our Wildcat xx. But I liked the price.

Really good handling UTV(not as good as Wildcat XX, as stated above), built very stout and haven’t heard of too many issues with them. Definitely slow feeling. Wether or not it’s actually that slow or not, it FEELS pretty slow. Still plenty capable as long as your not trying to drag race anyone.

With the stock carnivore’s it’s a worthy crawler and climber in Moab with a slightly experienced driver.

I like the wheels and tires they come with enough that I wouldn’t swap them, the whole unit is actually good looking piece.

I have a buddy that bought one. He likes it for trail riding and desert stuff. Took it to Sand Mountain and it wont make it up comp even with paddles. He got a lot of the aftermarket stuff for it, skid plates, wind shield, etc. He noticed the rear diff leaking and took it to the local dealer. They said the frame was bent near the rear diff that caused the factory skid plate (with the HDPE aftermarket one as well) to hit the diff cracking it. It was a 6 month ordeal but the dealer he bought it from got it fixed through Kawi. He is welding an AR500 plate in that area to avoid that issue in the future.

Did you buy it?
Haven't heard one good thing about any Ride now.
I tried buying a bike from the same store in vegas. Great sale price. Sat down to buy and then all the dealer fees came out.
$1800 in dealer prep alone. So much for the great sale price
Bought it.
No problems
