Which one would you chose? RR or Pro R? Comment below!

[@jonihander]

I'd go Pro R

[@truckercarter09]

RR

[@phantomwolf2111]

Any

[@anthonyaubuchon765]

Pro R. I like to be up on the wheel and when I sat in a x3 I wanted to learn the seat more forward

[@gregmonhollen4327]

RR all day

[@tdv1985]

I'm glad you guys are back making these type of videos. Just comparing and shooting the shit. Keep up the good work fellas

[@cboutdoorfun9955]

I would love to see both of these machines do some DRAGY runs on closed course pavement before the add one get done. It would be a stock benchmark to compare future mods to and for the x3 to compare to previous years

[@Tigris_River_Sand_Fleas]

The naturally aspirated 4 cyl. rzr beats the Can-Am in every single performance category and it doesn't even have a turbo. Imagine the 4 cyl. with a turbo...

[@cboutdoorfun9955]

@@Tigris_River_Sand_Fleas that is not true , it does beat the x3 in most categories but most drag races I see go to the x3

[@Tigris_River_Sand_Fleas]

@@cboutdoorfun9955 it is true. How can one argue against physics? 225 hp is quicker than 200 and the MAV has a turbo and the RZR does not and it's still faster. What RZR are you talking about? I own a Troy Lee "special edition" and stock it's quicker than any Can-Am that is stock on the market. I dragged against a guy with a brand new 2024 Can-Am and I dusted him by 3 lengths in less than a 1/4 mile and I know I weighed more than he did by quite a bit. Plain old 91 octane gas. I mean, a 4 cylinder with 225 hp. is quicker than a 3 cylinder that is barely 200 hp. This is fact not fiction. Yes, generally speaking MAV's are better dragsters, but not against the 4 cylinder even know the MAV's have turbo's and the 4 cylinders do not. If I added a turbo to by troy lee, I would absolutely destroy a MAV even worse than I do when I am stock. The dynamix DV with selectable ride modes:, comfort, rock, rock and baja are second to none. The X3 DOES NOT have this. Not even close. (copied and pasted below) MAXLINK SUSPENSION: The MaxLink Suspension System brings revolutionary strength by attaching the front shocks directly to the lower arms allowing for longer shocks. In back, the patented thru-arm rear toe link helps minimize bump steer throughout the massive travel. OUR STRONGEST RZR: An all chassis delivers a 2X increase in torsional stiffness. The welded one-piece cage is built from 2" tubing and uses tapered joints for added strength where it joins the chassis. DESERT-BORN CVT: RZR Pro R's CVT is built to endure the toughest environments. It uses a wider, longer belt, bigger clutches and better airflow to deliver the longest belt life ever seen on a RZR. I researched for over 5 years on Polaris and Can-Am before purchasing. Both are top class. But the Polaris is the better all-around machine by quite a bit. You can always trade yours in for the quicker, more robust, smoother RZR that is "Is as in not opinion, but a fact" quicker. Unless of course 225 horsepower is slower than less than 200 horsepower. Imagine if my Troy Lee had a turbo like the X3 has...

[@michaelhartman851]

I think a lot off people miss the point with the can am, they are doing exactly what a competitor should do, they not only caught up to but surpassed the rzr in no time with a fraction of the development time polaris has had, now polaris has responded with a competitive machine the new pro r, you have to kinda give it to can am for their rapid rise to greatness, I ended up going with a 21 turbo rr after months of research and have been absolutely blown away with the reliability and sheer speed of the can am, plus got 1800 miles out of the stock belt with some considerably hard driving the whole time, I don't think many other manufacturers have their clutching down as well in my opinion.

[@JoseSanchez-sd5hd]

Zous and Rick are some bad ass drivers 👌🏽

[@Rusty.1776]

I absolutely love the seat swapping perspectives. It needs to happen more and in many more environments. These two cars are so freaking incredible! ♥️🤍💙

[@ShukenFlash]

My take on Polaris v Can Am has always been Polaris seems to do a lot of pioneering new ideas and new categories, and then Can Am looks at that and asks how it can be turned to 11. They have a bit more performance in some areas for it, but they also tend to seem a bit more aggressive and savage. Which a lot of people like. They both have more or less the same max capability, but they each seem more at home in different parts of the range they're capable of. Honestly, I love how the SXS industry has 2 big brands willing to go after different parts of the market. They keep pushing one another and moving the entire industry forward so fast. And then you've got the other manufacturers building off that to make units that excel at certain things. Almost anyone can find a SXS thats perfect for what they want

[@BudgetGroundPounder]

These last couple vids. They're just comparing their "stock" SXS's, with guys who have had & tested more SXS's then most people will ever ride. It's just like with anyone, that has anything. After a while you get to know the limits of what your in or on. I fully understand the concern for safety & I'm not trying to down play it. But at this point, their as close to professional drivers as you can get without some kind of certification. Even as goofy as they act sometimes.

[@jasonjones3]

Them rigs are both nasty!!!! Can't wait to see them this weekend.

[@nickelgracing9313]

My thoughts on the Polaris. Too heavy. Too expensive. How’s it compare to a 5 year old platform like the x3?wonder how the reliability will be for the new engine not to mention the bushings and bearings prematurely going bad due to weight? For a performance machine the x3 has it in every aspect for comparisons. Drag racing may be close but add a tune to the x3 and it would take 10 grand to push the Polaris ahead.

I have a bad back and hip so the, Can Am x3 is more gentle on my body at all speeds. So I can go faster longer. The Polaris RzR Pro is also great, but it makes me want to go fast all the time, because it rides smoother when it's going fast. That's what I think you guys were trying to say.. So, I'd pick the Can Am x3.. but, I'd like to Win the Buffalo.. See ya later Gaters..

No kidding. The Grind hard plumbing Co KZbin channel (they make crazy off-road contraptions) is from Idaho and everything in their videos looks like a post card. I'm from Florida so I'm used to the whole tropical look and while I thought west Virginia was beautiful when I was there I'd love to go see Idaho.

[@normanlacy3390]

Long long ways from the wildcat days keep on keeping on

[@sxsweride]

The proR definitely looked smoother on the trails and through the bumps. There was a lot of over steering going on in that X3. From what I have seen in the comparisons I would definitely select a proR for a trail machine. Like you stated in the video though....if you want a stripped down race car, the x3 is the one. I prefer the added comforts you get from the ProR for my riding style.

[@anthonyaubuchon765]

I tend to think the over steer is probably caused by the tires not staying planted on the ground as well as the pro. That will make the wheel feel light and not give you the good feedback. Like he said it could be caused by to much air pressure in the tires or maybe the shocks need some fine tuning. I agree the pro does look a lot better on the trail. If I had to pick one it would definitely be the pro

[@Tigris_River_Sand_Fleas]

Pro-R is better in every category. Quicker, smoother, more robust.

[@snowrulesnate]

Yes, if you’re budget is unlimited…lol. The Pro R is way overpriced for the average guy. Very few people can afford that price tag.

[@snowrulesnate]

@@carbide1968 yes Carbide, my first thought is always how much is it going to cost me. Yes, durability is likely there since this motor has been around awhile in another platform but adding a turbo may increase heat and wear, so unknown territory.

[@JT-hs7gv]

The X3 is in every sense a race unit it is bare Bones set up basic out of the box race unit which the pro R is the same just with all the latest and greatest technology nannies that allows someone with less skill as a driver to go just as fast as a skilled driver in the X3 . Because of the way it's designed an with integrated nannies that allow the average driver to go much faster than usual. It gives you the confidence behind the wheel, where the X3 is out of the box race unit and Lacks all the latest and greatest nannies but achieves greatness with it's simple racing D.N.A. genetics. Like the saying say's...Driving a slow car to it's limit's is way funner than trying to drive a fast car, fast. Regardless thank you guys for always putting a smile on my face and doing your best to educate us along the way you guys are much loved and appreciated continue with the great videos. You all are awesome 😎

[@just_inolredneck8319]

From the camera angles it seam to me like the x3 rides a little more comfortable.. I never ridden n either but the me the pro r was a little more bouncy. And with a broken back it’s probably have to go with the floating ride of the x3.. but I never see myself owning either.. I just lost my grandma Monday and I’m Very down and out.. and depressed to a high degree.. but like I said with a broken back and spinal cord damage and on a fixed income.. I couldn’t ever see myself n a machine that costs more than my 3 actual vehicles put together… but I’d definitely love to have the x3.. I’m not a person who needs the creature comforts.. and I feel like they both have great machines.. it really comes down to the owner/rider! Great job boys!

[@JsGarage]

I think something has to be said about the stock part beef of the Pro R. Be interesting to see how these two stock machines hold up to abuse. The X3 looks to lack beef compared to the Pro R.

i like the way polaris ride they are really smooth through woops , the turbo s polaris with dynamix leaves me behind while going through 2ft whoops in my x3 turbo r but in the open trails and long stretch aways my opinion x3 is better and faster even a pro xp cant catch a turbo rr but the ride quality in the pro xp is second to none. i always own sports cars so i love the x3 sitting position and the hard suspension feel but for some people preffer a more truck feeling and the polaris covers that for you.

If Polaris offered a more sporty seating position, I think we’d see more people leaning that way. I’ve raced cars my whole life, so the tractor seat feel just never worked for me. For that reason, it was an easy choice on the X3 when deciding between the two. Personally think the X3 sounds a lot better too. Either way, great machines. I know you guys think the X3 can’t drift like the Pro R, but my pavement auto cross and gravel/dirt rally cross racing in the X3 says otherwise 😎
