Hey all, new to forum. Been thinking about a S x S for about 6 months. Really was thinking 825i Gator vs XP900. Then I started to look around and noticed Yamaha has released the Viking. I have a Grizzly Quad and love it so I think the Viking may be a good fit. The leg room is a big issue in the 825i for me since I am 6'4" 250lbs, very very cramped in the 825. The XP900 just feels a little cheap I guess, not a polaris fan in general in the quad department. I will mostly be riding gravel roads and checking corn fields. Rock picking in the spring. Thinking about a plow for winter so I can do the drive way. What do you guys think about the Viking vs my other two options? Couple specific questions:
-What is the top speed? Need to be able to travel gravel roads and a couple paved roads safely and have 5 miles between some fields.
-Is there a good, factory quality cab option? Love the XP900 cab. Would like removable doors for summer maybe. Heat for the winter.
-Would a Viking handle a Boss UTV V-plow plow?
-Is there a power dump option or the bed? This would be nice for a full load of rocks.
-Viking quality? The 825i feels good to me, excellent quality. The XP900 feels a little more plasticy and I worry about the longevity of the unit in general.
