i have the viking 700 3 seater, I've only had it for a month and other than some noisey brakes (which I hear the dealer will fix if asked) i love it.I'm presently looking at buying a new 2015 Viking 6. Just wondering what ppl think of theirs? Any issues? Or problems they have had.
I'm not exactly sure about mileage but it takes a good trip to even move the gas gauge. I still would buy the Viking VI if I were to do it all over again. I poked at the RZRs that every body has and swears by, but what I see is a money pit. This Viking VI may not get me there as fast, but I will be arriving in style and comfort. I also purchased the Yamaha YES plan with it, giving me another 48 months of warranty.Sweet ride. What's the gas mileage roughly getting?
I had my 3 seater out on the pavement the other day and it went 50 MPH now to me that is fast and not underpowered but it isn't a 6 either. I got the extended warranty i would recommend that. I have factory tires and I have yet to have a problem. It goes anywhere I want to go. With that said I still want to put larger tires and wheels on it but i'll wait till those tires are worn.I did hear it was a bit under powered. But willing to get over that. Getting the family and friends out is for sure the best part. No issues with people blowing belts?

Seats are excellent but a cloth seat cover of some kind would be nice during hot weather because one can get swamp ass really quick. LOL
Just took a measurement for you. With the stock Bighorns, it is about 140" from edge of front tire to edge of rear tire. I carry it on a trailer with a 14' bed.That's pretty good I figured around 50. Does anyone know the feet from end of tire to end of tire on them. I have a feeling I will have to extend my trailer to hold her lol.
Here in So Cal, since the VI is not on Yamaha's lineup for 2016, the dealers are blowing them out. You can find them here for at least a couple grand off MSRP.Thanks for the quick info. Roughly 11 1/2 ft. My trailer may work. The decks just that lol. I may have to add a piece just to be safe. Now if my parts for my current bike come in tomorrow hope to have the new rig possibly Friday.
