I'd say its the lack of HP those bikes produce, I agree, they would suck
I had a Grizzly 700, that was good
All gear ratio problems can be overcome with HP:D

There is no substitute for cubic capacity!
I just re-read the initial post, you seem amazingly good with your hands Rovercare, why don't you build a buggy? Check out the Edge buggies website, they sell plans, I think my next one will be a piranha or baracuda (current one is their older mini sprint design, albeit greatly altered) unless I decide to make it 4WD.
You can make them 2 seaters (mod the plans) and something like a Honda VFR800 would be a good torquey donor engine! The lack of 4WD may be an issue but with the back tyres mine has it doesn't get stuck.
Cheers

Time, I have an unfinished duramax into GU to finish that has been idle for 12 months, 6 months a year overseas, a business to run whilst at home, 3 kids to play with, investment properties to reno, money i am not short on these days, time I am, so these is a toy I can grab a kid or a mate and go play
The joys of old age:D
Um.... Thread and lots of pictures needed... Happy Xmas too! :)Quote:

Do any of these higher end side by side UTVs have V or horizontal twin diesels - and what sort of performance do you get out of them.
No, so the diesel ones don't perform at all :p the only diesels are in the workhorse type, we have a diesel Kubota at work, however it is hydraulic drive and very slow, 45 is flat out IIRC (although there is a 25kph site limit).Quote:
