Anyone have any more info on this rig? Could it be an RZR eater?

Ive heard lots of rumors about this machine, but this is the first time I have seen it. Looks pretty cool to me. I know the 800 V twin in their quads run really well, so I would guess this thing ought to scream. :cowboy1:

That 1000c engine is bad ass. Its a bit heavier than the RZR, big like a Rhino.
It will be bad ass I am sure, but part of what makes the RZR what it is, is its size and its low seat height.

Bigger and not as sporty as the RZR, but quite a bit more power. (according to these guys)

85hp stock with warranty? That's pretty awesome IMO! It looks badass too. Isn't that about what the razr is putting out with the turbo?

I wonder what kind of aftermarket they will have for it. The one CanAm quad I rode was a 500 Renagade and I was shocked at how much power it had for a 500, It pulled me and Eryn up the valley with no problem, I would love to see what there 800 is like.

I promise thats crank hp.
They claim their 800 makes 71, I dynoed a few of those and at the wheels they make just over 45.
My RZR on 9lbs boost is 83 at the wheels.
I bet that Can Am is about 50 at the wheels.
It will be sweet for sure, but its an improved Prowler not an improved RZR. Different deal.

What do those Prowler 1000s put down at the wheels? It seems this machine will be the happy medium between a Rhino and a RZR.
