Has anyone heard aout the ranger having trouble tipping and rolling?

A friend of mine is going to see about purchasing a RZR for me from a guy who is likely to sell due to rolling his RZR. It has some light body damage and scratches-but devilville that is what I will do to the thing day one. :twisted:

Is rolling a common issue? Of course you can over drive anything and end up in trouble, but if the bike is terrible unstable as he claims...I may reconsider-uh maybe not.
Feedback?

I haven't had any issues...I am sure it could be rolled if you didn't take some caution....I would say that if you are a powerslide freak, then you probably would end up on your side before long....I think it feels way more stable than the Rhino...

One of the early professional reviews, (possibly atvconnection) took a test drive in one before it was released. Polaris let them drive it, and they flipped it on its side...

Like anything, they have their limits, and you have to find out what those limits are.

The review claimed that even though it was narrower, it has a lower center of gravity than other side by sides because the driver sits on the floor and not over the engine.

I do not think it is any easier to tip than any other side by side, but they will all tip... if driven carelessly.

My 800 will be more stable than either the rhino or the rzr, because it is wider, longer, heavier, and sits closer to the ground...but I would trade it for a rzr :lol:

any takers :?: anyone???? Is this thing on... :lol: :lol:
