Polaris Ranger RZR Review
An ATV That
Takes Cancer Research to a New Level
Polaris Industries has joined in the 2009 OHV
Tour for a Cure. In doing so, they have taken
the whole thing to a new level
level Pink.
Everyone associates the new 800 series RZR with
power, endurance, strength and durability. The
RZR is a tough machine that can overcome any
obstacle or challenge it encounters, which makes
it the perfect vehicle to use on a Tour to help
with Cancer Research! Furthermore, since people
often associate the color pink with cancer
research, their new LE version with the Passion
Pink Graphics kit leaves nothing to be desired.

Engine:
The Polaris Ranger RZR LE has an
industry-leading big bore 800 EFI Engine giving
it one of the fastest acceleration capabilities
of any side x side. It has a 760cc,
liquid-cooled, twin-cylinder engine with
electronic fuel injection and an automatic
transmission with inline gear range of P, R, N,
L, H.
Suspension:
The 9-inch front suspension includes double-arm
with an anti-sway bar. Add rolled independent
rear suspension with an anti-sway bar and 9.5
inches of travel, plus 10 inches of ground
clearance, and you have everything needed for a
smooth ride unmatched by any other side x side,
even at its top speed of 55mph.
AWD:
The on-demand True AWD senses when the rear
wheels slip. It then engages both front wheels
with full torque, maximizing traction with true
4-wheel drive.
Low Center of Gravity:
Because the engine is positioned behind the
seat, as opposed to under, the center of gravity
is one of the lowest available on the market.
This allows for sharp handling and performance.
Performance on the Trail:
Not only can you get over anything you run into,
you can go under just about anything an ATV can
as well with it only being 69 inches tall. It is
just 50 inches wide so it can easily navigate
almost all off-road trail systems out there. Add
a 77-inch wheelbase and a 101.5-inch turning
radius, and you can dominate where other side x
sides have to turn around and go back.
Load Capacity and Towing:
The total dry weight of this RZR is only 945
lbs. It has a cargo area of 42 x 22 inches box
dimension with a 300 lb capacity, as well as
under-seat storage area. The payload capacity is
740 lb and it has 1500 lb hitch towing capacity.
The exclusive cargo system lets you add or
change their lock and ride accessories in less
than a minute with no tools.
Extra Features:
Adjustable seats, tilt steering, and an
adjustable passenger grab bar are a few of the
extra features of the LE version. It also has a
new heel pocket to lock in comfort so no more
sliding around when you are out there on the
trail.
Limited Edition Features:
The limited edition features include Painted
Passion Pink hood, dash, and box panels, white
painted suspension springs, custom cut and
sew-stitched pink and charcoal carbon deluxe
seat, a custom decal package, and 12-inch black
Crusher rims with Maxxis Tires.
MSRP: $11,399.00.
This same unit is also available in a variety of
other colors. For more information, and to find
