everyone's thoughts

I always ride in low unless its a flat road and I'm haulin' ass.

I'll have to start doing that never knew it made a difference always learning something new!

Most of my riding is during hunting season plus my tires are 8 ply which makes them a little on the heavy side. If I'm just cruizin' around it's always in low range. Think of it as a 10 speed bike, you wouldn't just ride around in 10th gear all of the time...awful hard on your legs! I'm curious...you said your friend purchased a RZR. Having said that, the RZR's have a different system and belts are MUCH more of a weak link for them. Was the dealer talking about the RZR's or the Vikings?

Always in low.

Agreed always Low unless haulin ass

I always ride in low unless im going to be driving over 30mph. Then ill stop, put it in high and haul a**

20 is my rule

They told him with any product sxs or quads it should be in low or it could wear the belt faster

I am a Rhino owner, a former Ranger and Grizzly owner, and soon to be Viking owner......the Polaris system is always in a "slip" mode.......sorta.....but, the Grizz and Rhino never had a problem putt putting around in high.


I will see how the Viking "feels" putt putting around in high before I pass my opinion, but Yamaha's belt drive is flawless.

I agree with Jim1 Polaris have a different system. That's one reason I buy Yamaha's. If you don't need to go faster than low range goes I guess that's ok but where I live we have too much wide open spaces for that! Yamaha's belts are always tight so they don't slip a bit each time you start.
