DunerDan Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 after this past weekend I need to buy my wife a s x s she totally dug it and went everywhere in my friends rhino, but I want something with a little more power. I'm planning on leaving it mostly stock maybe exhaust or airbox mods, just wondering your opinion on rzr s vs teryx duning? teryx would stay a 2 seater also. thanks for any input! Quote
DunerDan Posted November 16, 2010 Author Posted November 16, 2010 looking at reliability teryx looks more stout but also heavier...but Polaris left a ba taste in my mouth. any know problems with either? Quote
Just Mike Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 looking at reliability teryx looks more stout but also heavier...but Polaris left a ba taste in my mouth. any know problems with either? I have never been in a Teryx but I hear they are much better than the Rhino. I can keep up fairly good in my rzr on fast runs. no problems so far other than some things done before I got it. I have a friend that has a Teryx and with 40 hrs on it the motor is done. it could be an isolated case though. The rzrs are easy to drive do to there size and that may be something to consider as well. Jodi took the rzr out for the first time this past weekend and did great in it on a fairly aggressive run. Hope this helps Quote
DunerDan Posted November 16, 2010 Author Posted November 16, 2010 yes the rzr is very appealing and I think I may go with that...haha ya Jodi was all bragging about driving it. I haven't seen any major problems with the rzr either. thanks mike. then me n u can do some rzr runs that would be fun! Quote
ynot Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 My understand that the weak point of the Rzr-s is the air box as it allows sand into the engine. It's about a $350.00 mod as far as I know. 1 Quote

DunerDan Posted November 16, 2010 Author Posted November 16, 2010 haha I can write a check but it will be very rubbery! no problem it's a sweet ride Quote
r8r family Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 As an owner of a Teryx and someone who has put a few hours behind the wheel of the "S" I would absolutely recommend the rzr s. The only advantage the Teryx has is the ability to make a four seat set up for which it is convenient for my family. For duning capibility the rzr s far exceeds the Teryx. 1 Quote
Just Mike Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 I put a Velocity air filter on my rzr and it is holding up just fine. I think it has enough flex to it that it does not cause the problem that usually accures and I got it on ebay for 60 bucks. Quote
