Are UTV's included?
Just happened this week.
Bought a friend's rzr and towed it up to our cabin in Williams AZ. He gave me the trailer too.
Put our rzr for sale and it's gone already. It had over 4000 miles.
Our friend's rzr was a couple years older but only 400 miles.
Just finishing installing accessories

100% they qualify. very nice setup.
 
I put full skids, bumpers and tree kickers on my new KRX last night actually, lol. Also added a few braces for shock mounts and other suspension parts. Sold my Honda pioneer a couple weeks ago and picked up this KRX last week. In the process of getting it trail ready!

I just installed the new Harbor Freight 6” LEDs on my Polaris Ranger. They are a power house. Between two trucks and my Ranger I have used all the big name LED pods. People, consider the Harbor freights if you are upgrading lighting. I am amazed of the quality and light output. Made in China sadly, but way more affordable than the big brands.

HF led's are pretty good. you are correct about price.

Kawi makes a good UTV. Hardly ever put a wrench to mine. Way better build quality than Can Am and Polaris. I really like my Can Am and it rides really nice, but it ain't the same build quality.

This is my first kawasaki SxS. I've had a few different RZRs and the previous honda. Not a fan of Can Am. Strong motors but a pita to work on. Parts are expensive, ect. I've always had good luck with kawasaki motorcycles. Heck my lawnmowers always have kawasaki engines, lol. KRX seems like a good machine. So far I really like it. Rides great and seems well made.

kawi SxS's seems bulletproof.
 
I wish they build one as a dunes and desert UTV that would compete with Polaris and Can Am in terms of HP and suspension.

That does seem to be the only thing they are missing. Since I live in the south east. I think it will be perfect. But they are geared lower and don't have a turbo option. So probably not ideal for dunes and desert running. Atleast not with speed and HP. I will say the suspension is pretty great though. Lots of travel and the shocks have a ton of adjustment. Compared to a RZR XP or a Talon. I felt the KRX rode better.

But yeah the upper models from Polaris and Can Am are pretty beastly. I wasn't interested in a 30k SxS though, lol. Really for how we ride, I wouldn't want a turbo anyway.
 
Yeah, they are priced more than a 1500 ZR2 now with the Polaris Ultimate 4. Base price is $40k and $35-40k for LT suspension, tire/wheels, cage/roof, seats/4 point harnesses, navigation, occupant ventilation, lights, stereo, radios, etc.

I seen a Can Am that was $80k a few weeks ago. They basically are priced like custom sand rails used to be.

Lol nothing Polaris makes is worth 40k much less 80k. I've had three different RZRs going all the way back to a 2011 800 Le. They are fun, but they are cheaply made. I could have gotten a Pro R for 32k. I didn't even really consider it. But that power is nice 😅. The Pro Xp premium wasn't bad and was pretty similar in price and specs as the KRX Se I got. I got the KRX for 22k OTD. 4 year kawasaki extended warranty for another 1200. Considering they were selling for 26k+ a year ago. I was glad I waited till now to upgrade.
 
I've never owned a Polaris, but my Dad has. The new ones seem to be built really well.

This new Ultimate 4 is built like the proverbial brick shit house. It's got a 225 HP 4 cylinder motor and 29 inches of travel and the suspension looks awesome.

Only place you can run that fast is open desert and dunes. My average speed ony last three was 15ish mph, two of them could run 65-70 mph.
