Polaris Turbo R... Our initial opinion and Review. Could it be the best Polaris Platform Ever?

[@jkauffman990]

Great video. Thanks for all the info I plan on picking up a 24 rzr turbo R 4 ultimate soon. Just sold my general xp4.

[@XpensiveDecisions]

Nice. They are great machines. We love it!

[@XpensiveDecisions]

Check out our 1 year update video for what we like and dislike!

[@JW-yj1qx]

Loved the lime green colours of the two seat Turbo and your hill climb video.

[@XpensiveDecisions]

Thank you, Damon has spent a lot of time and money to make his vision turn into that.

[@justinputman9303]

Those rides look and sound awesome! Congrats on the new ride

[@XpensiveDecisions]

Thanks, they are completely different than what we had in the past.

[@justinputman9303]

@@XpensiveDecisions ya from a 2 seater to a 4 seater and wider is a big change. Plus all the nice gadgets. will definitely have to get together again for another ride

[@XpensiveDecisions]

@@justinputman9303 absolutely on riding together again.

[@trinityoffroad]

My only complaint are the trailing arms. They are big, but they can’t take a beating like I hoped they would. And the gear reduction is perfect for running 35s, but I’m just now getting use to the loss of wheel speed. Congrats on the new ride!

[@XpensiveDecisions]

Yes I am glad they did gear reduction, biggest downfall of Turbo S to me. Trailing arms don’t seem to be as much of an issue on the 4 seater as it is on the 2 seater but they are kind of thin metal for as bulky as they are. We both have some dents on the bottom of them.

[@marka1712]

Nice machines. I’m looking forward to what y’all have coming up with them. These things are too rich for my pocket so I’ll just live vicariously through y’all and suffer through my krx on 35s lol.

[@XpensiveDecisions]

Ain’t nothing wrong with a KRX. If I was to get a 2 seater that’s what I would have got. We did not like the overall looks of the KRX 4 seater.

[@marka1712]

@@XpensiveDecisions oh yeah I love my krx. I was joking about that lol. They’re all good and bad in their own ways. For me the lack of power isn’t a big loss and the beefiness and ability to handle 35” zillas stock were big sellers for me. I go everywhere I want in mine. Stay safe and keep it up 👍🏻

[@danobonano1315]

That 2seater looks like Grave Digger comin down thru the woods

[@XpensiveDecisions]

😎🙂

[@NoTalentOffroad]

Any issues out of the lower ball joints? On the turbo r 4?

[@XpensiveDecisions]

No issues at all. If you watch the short we posted this week it shows a 2 seater even rolling pretty hard and all suspension held up.

[@RDA8191]

A lot of people put the colored beadlock rings on black wheels, but man, those hi vis yellow rings on the silver wheels looks killer

[@XpensiveDecisions]

Yes he made that one stand out. His spouse is doing same thing with different colors on a black turbo r.

[@TxHylyner]

So based on what you know so far for the type of riding we all Do… PRO XP 35 zillas and 4” portals or Turbo R 35 zillas?

[@XpensiveDecisions]

Hard to say really, pro xp with portals would give you gear reduction and clearance for 35s. But the turbo r has better suspension components for strength. I am not a huge portal fan, just another wear point and service.

[@conormcgregor.7333]

The rim offset on the 2-seater is messing up your scrub radius.

[@XpensiveDecisions]

Yeah he likes those wide wheels though.

[@sdshawn29]

Mentioned every but the pro r

[@crazy3rdgen]

Broke the front swaybar on my turbo r at 30 hours. Disappointing 😞. Going to speak with polaris this week.. was doing trails in Moab. No heavy abuse taking my time on any obstacles.

[@XpensiveDecisions]

That is not good, hopefully they stand behind it. Not sure if I want to remove completely yet. Did some pretty hard wheeling this last weekend and didn’t have any flex issues.

[@crazy3rdgen]

@Xpensive Decisions I definitely noticed a difference when we took it out to prevent any more damage. The dynamix will compensate but it didn't seem fast. Like if you're going over a big rock it doesn't plant the wheel down fast, you have to go super slow, let the wheel go over and drop down, let the dynamix stiffen up that shock, then continue to go over. If you go over more quickly without the sway it compresses fast and the travel up seems to go much higher causing less clearance. Going up high angles also seemed more difficult.

[@XpensiveDecisions]

@@crazy3rdgen that is good info. Thank you

[@skeim5620]

@@crazy3rdgenI just ordered a premium turbo r .I hope I didn’t make a 3,000 mistake by not upgrading to the ultimate,what’s your opinion

[@crazy3rdgen]

@S Keim I honestly don't know man.. this is actually my first sxs so I'm pretty new to the game. I figured let me just get the best turbo one I can and roll with it.

[@delicious2189]

How fast does the turbo r 4 seater go in low ?

[@XpensiveDecisions]

Mid 30s on 35” tires

[@delicious2189]

@@XpensiveDecisions I thought they might have been something wrong my new 2023 turbo r 4 only goes 32 to 35 in low

[@XpensiveDecisions]

@@delicious2189 no that is the good thing about the turbo r, it had a factory gear reduction. Addressed complaints of the the turbo S models

[@dericclawson1667]

What cage is on the 2 seat

[@XpensiveDecisions]

DFWATV custom built

[@brittonmercer2258]

Why did you choose the Turbo r over the new pro r.

[@XpensiveDecisions]

I am not 100% confident in the new engine platform, let them work some bugs out. The pro r has longer wheelbase and I think they are too long for 4 seater. The 2 seater turbo r is still too short in my opinion. With the miles and rides we have put on them we are happy with how they perform and the strength they have.

[@brittonmercer2258]

Thank u

[@johndeerefarmer4483]

Not much of a review. You basically rattled off the specs that we already know. A review is supposed to be what YOU like and dislike about it.. And FYI the motor in the Turbo S is not the same motor that's in the Pro XP and Turbo R... They got the new improved engine with water and oil cooling among other upgrades

[@XpensiveDecisions]

@johndeerefarmer We appreciate the feedback. We cannot please everyone but we do try to give some piece of info that might be useful or helpful. I watched many videos, some that were helpful and some that were not. It is our initial view but we will give more feedback as we ride.

[@mm64e50]

I found this to be useful. I’ve been looking for Info on 35-37” tires on these Turbo R’s

[@XpensiveDecisions]

@@mm64e50 we have not had any issues running the 35s. Low gear is great but I will be looking into a clutch kit to help the belt in high gear, mainly taking off.
