Dear friend ,Hope you are fine .This is Jack who is the brand manager of Carpuride , We really like the professionalism of your content and We want to collaborate a dedicated video with you ,how can i contact you ?
The rmax is a peppy work/hunt mobile, but, I find nothing sporting about it. I've had it since 2021, and while I'd never trade it for a general (Have that turd, too) it certainly doesn't meet the criteria of anything with "Sport" assigned to it's title. Quicker than other multi-purpose machines, but, try to push it like a sport machine and you will find it's harsh limitations real quick. Only biased fanboys will try to convince you otherwise. Tops it genre, but none of those machines in that category really earn the hype.
These are not expedition territory so let’s stop pretending they are. They are defender ranger contenders. Also needs locked front diff. My 2020 ranger midsize has a better front diff when in 4wd than this. Disappointing at the price point. I’m swaying back and forth. This or a defender. Cuz defender you get better bang for your buck over full size ranger. I’m not brand loyal at all.
I have a 2019 YXZ Garrett turbo with Alba ECU,and trinity exhaust. It would take something very special to make me trade this girl.I live at the coast and she does everything well, from running through the pine trees to thrashing sand. I will say this, if you get a turbo you must run an after market silencer and flash the ECU. Completely different animal.
Used to own Kawasaki mule pro MX and also mule pro FXR both of those machines was very unreliable got a Can-Am defender best decision I made for a side-by-side so far it has been flawless
I have a new street set up. 33 inch tires on 14 inch rims 2” wheel spacers and 2” lift. Great for the street but really compromises the center of gravity as in being top-heavy. I would use the set up also, if I was in tight rocky trails. Very forgiving because of the tall side walls of the tires and as long as you don’t go fast much more comfortable. However, I live at the beach and all that stuff is coming off every time we ride in the sand through the pine trees. That set up is still with the big horns, turbo, Alba tune,Trinity exhaust, and I’m going to leave the 2” spacers on to see if it will corner better. As obviously I have not tried that set up in the woods yet. Otherwise I haven’t found anybody that can keep up with me through the pine trees on a sandy trail .And no, I don’t need to hear about how fast you are and how much faster you are than I am and how much faster your cousins,uncle,girlfriend or grandsons are.Just telling you my experience in the last five years.
Awesome video guys big fan of the YXZ love anything everything about these machines have a 22 xtr myself unfortunately missed out on the extra gear but still love my machine and does everything I want. I'm still completely stock and am very happy with the performance. Would love to see some other videos of you guys out ripping these things.
First! The beauty of the YXZ 1000R platform is that it's just a versatile vehicle and it's fun to drive stock and you can build it to compete and even beat the $40K+ elite sport SxS. '24 YXZ's can now be had in XTR trim for under $20K, which is 4K less than at launch.
Cain, now that you've shown what it can do in the fast stuff, you ought to bring your YXZ out to the Black Hills and see what it can do in the rough stuff with the new 6 speed transmission.
I am 5'7" and i did not like the seat in the Ranch edition. The seat was too tall and my feet didn't set flat. i had to use my toes, to touch the floor. And yes i moved seat back and forth.
It's quieter, better on fuel, larger cab by a lot, three year warranty and engine exhaust is facing the rear so less cab heat than the others. So yeah, there is a lot of differences.
@@MrMagic700 we'll see how it sells. I'm a huge Kawasaki fan but the reviews arent great about it. Plus it's really expensive. I'm disappointed they have the engines to make the krx compete with the pro r and x3 and Mav r but they don't. I'll never understand it
@@MrTjulius reviews are not great cause Polaris wants to keep market share. We will not advertise with you if you give kawi a good review. I used to sell Polaris I know how they work.
@@MrMagic700 Its not Quieter then a Defender Limited after test driving the ridge hvac at cruising speeds 40-60mph. Which is the reason why i went with the Defender. The ridge runs at 8400+rpm at 55-60MPH and the defender runs at 6500. The ridge is geared to low like the polaris xpedition. I wanted to get back into a Kawasaki after selling my Teryx years ago but i have kids now and i am sick of machines screaming at me when causally cruising around my property.
Yeah I'm not feeding 20 volts into a 12 volt system. It SHOULD be able to take a 20 volt spike as it handles 14 volts nominally, but one weak link and one fried board are all it takes to ruin your day.
I was camping one time and left my power converter on that killed both of my batteries. I had my rc's with me so i glued some wires together and made an adapter to hook my 3s lipo rc battery to my truck. Now i carry an rc battery with me every where I go lol
This completely trashes the batterys they are not at all designed for such a heavy load all at once u will get a few jumps outta it but it will die in the ass
Good review Cain! Thanks for not blindly following the Kawasaki narrative that some of the other magazine reviews are following that this is an RMAX competitor. The RMAX is more poised for sport with some work while this is clearly a farm model that can do some mild trails. This is clear in the terrain Kawasaki chose for both this rde and their course on the day of release that was very groomed. It does compete with the Xpedition and higher-trim Ranger\Defender models.
