Huge kudos to the riders at St. Anthony that jump in and help other stranded riders! My wife and I had our clutch come apart on top of a huge dune during some intense wind. Strangers ran for parts and eventually towed us back to camp. Then refused to accept any gifts for their hard work. Truly exceptional people.

For the most part the XX did all the jumps and woops just fine. It did not time itself very good on the woops at the base of choke cherry but all the others it did very well. The only adjusting we did to the suspension was adjusting the clickers on the shock, which are nice and very easy to do. Any further adjusting I would do with out a full long travel kit is load the back springs a little more.

How do sound levels compare during all day rides vs other rigs.
@HillBroPro6 жыл бұрын
Mike it’s all relatively the same. I find the YXZ motor noise loud and the X3 motor noise loud. The XX is no different but for me I did have to get used to listening to a CVT revving over 9000 RPM. The XX muffler sounds tinny, would make a muffler with some a more base or Performance tone to it. As for the paddles I feel it would climb out of choke with paddles and minor clutching.
@mikedesilets33246 жыл бұрын
HillBro Thanks. I think the exhaust is tinny too. I'm thinking a triple merge and then out to something like three FMF powercore 4's might work to deepen in. May even need a resonator box. Hopefully some company will work on that.

Yeah right... go check out benchmark performance boosted XX on instagram..not only that these cars were designed for rough desert more so, they are heavier because of that. X3 or RZR turbo in bone stock condition will get left in the dust in the rough desert. In the sand they will definitely out perform because of the horsepower advantage.

It depends on the day and tires you run. The stock big horns are good sand tires. The XX will with big horns and if the clutch is set up right. The same with any 1000 set up right like YXZ, RZR, Maverick. It’s a struggle but all are capable of doing it.
