Need utility Side by Side

[gsganzer]

I'll need to find a sensible trailer for hauling it. My 20' car hauler is a little overkill. Thinking of a small and light enough trailer so it can be used behind the SxS too.

A 2025 Yamaha Viking EPS followed me home today. I brought the wife and she was attracted to the Ranch edition, but we ultimately stuck with the green base model and we'll buy some aftermarket upgrades with the savings.

I once again kicked the tires of the various Kawasaki's and Can Am's, but for whatever reason, the Yamaha just called me. The Viking is certainly no-frills as far as many of the UTV's go, but the simplicity is actually what I like about it. I'm surprised at how smooth the ride is and the seating position just suits me the best.

We had some storms rolling in, so no time for photo's. I'll take some tomorrow when I play with it some more.

I think it will make for a great machine for you. I don't know much about the Yamaha SxS but the Yamaha 700 ATV is a beast of a machine and super reliable.

I just loaded mine up. Kids coming this weekend and wife didn't like the dead fall by the entrance. Love that I can haul my SxS with the trailer and pull the trailer with the SxS.

Hello all,

So, I really could use a utility side by side for around my 8 acres. Mainly for fence repair, general maintenance, irrigation repairs and target setting out to my 200 yard range. And of course some trail riding while camping. I am looking at five different machines. Most are three seaters. No need for a six seater. Here they are not listed in any particular order;

1 CFMoto UForce U10 Pro
2 Kawasaki Ridge/Ranch Edition
3 Polaris Range 1000
4 Honda Pioneer 1000-5
5 Can Am Defender X MR

I know there are others on the market. I was really interested in a Massimo T-Boss 1000, but they are not available in Kalifornia. My main focus here is ease of service, riding comfort and durability. So, if you happen to have one of these machines, can you kindly chime in as to what you do and don't like about it. I have ridden in a Honda Pioneer before and it was a great machine. I kicked the tires on a Kawasaki Ridge and it looks like a great machine, but getting to the air filter looks like a pain in the rear. I have yet to sit in any of the other three. Mainly because there are none on dealer floors in the Stockton area. I really want to look at the CFMoto. A Tracy dealer is expecting some in early May.

Ok, thanks guys/gals. B.

Whatever you choose, I respectfully suggest that a buyer knows how to decipher the DOM plate.


"New" could mean a two to three years old piece of equipment....sitting on the lot.
