Nice little build!

I cant believe how much fun these side by sides are. Would definitely consider one if I had the space. Here is a little plug....not trying to jack. Might even give you a few ideas.

A good friend of mine built this little beast to ride in. He cant drive due to a spinal cord injury, but still gets to feel the power. He is also featured in the Nov/Dec 2011 ATVRider Magazine. He makes about 130HP

I dont live in the desert and see way too much mud and water to add a turbo kit. it would be awesome to have all of that power but all i would do is break parts in the deep holes with these tires im running. ive got a hundred miles on it now. i still have a huge grin when cruising. heres some pics before the windshield and rear bumper.




flat repair without a jack on the trail lol:


and some randoms of our last trip:

A friend of mine has a 900XP and it gets down pretty good. Does high 70s, gets there in a decent time.

My friend had a Rhino with a 800 Rotax in it and it would break a Gorilla axle about every time you rode it.

RZR's are fun for sure! I stopped messing with my truck a while back. Started dumping money into my ski. Thats been my speed fix lately.

I dont have 'Laws on my quad, but......
