Polaris Industries took the side-by-side world by storm when they introduced the Ranger RZR in 2008. With a powerful fuel-injected mill, independent suspension, and low center of gravity, the RZR became many's sport side-by-side vehicle of choice.
In 2009, Polaris upped the ante with the Ranger RZR S.
The RZR S model sports an 800 H.O. fuel-injected twin engine, on-demand true 4-wheel drive, and a low center of gravity,
Even with it's low center of gravity, the RZR S has 12.5" of ground clearance! The S also features a long travel wide track suspension that uses Fox Podium X coilover reservoir shocks that have both compression and rebound adjustments and have 12" of travel to soak up bumps. The chromoly front A arms are strong, light, and are able to take the abuse trail riding can dish out.
Polaris is loaning us a RZR S so we can report to you how it works in our trail riding and exploring universe. We look forward to using it to explore long distances in a short time, as the RZR S's 63 mph top speed, coupled with its Baja-capable suspension and wider track width, promises to speed us to ghost towns and scenic areas so we can bring you more trail and adventure features.
The Polaris Ranger RZR S puts adventure on the fast track. Look for detailed coverage in the magazine soon.
