Interesting, that Can am has a lot of HP. Poor cat was last got hosed by a Polaris, so much for Cat`s pretty golf cart . lol

[tmhacker]

Is it just me... Or were the drivers being bias to the hand that fed them. Really... Where they told to drive them like the spec sheet told them... Canned ham will perform 101%, PooPoo will make it 88% and MildCat sorry but you can only look like you can make it 77% of the way. Amazing how there performance is depicted by there HP like a bar graph. Sorry but I didn't even get a hard-on watching this video.

b/s my 900 would drive right over that thing goin up that hill can u say propaganda lol

[freelance]

LOL !!

Good job Chickpit for starting the original debate !!!

Enough said.......Team Canada vs Team USA. Now that's not propaganda !!

LOL !!!

The point here is that when any manufacturer puts out a video it will be biased to their product or they wouldn't put it out. The manufacturer's videos are only good for information not a true comparison. Their product will always win a shootout based on the criteria they selected to show.
Buy what you want, be proud of what you have, enjoy it as much as possible and don't worry about the competition.

Haha. Awesome forums are awakening !!!!

I've yet to get my hands on a Wildcat, but to be honest I hate the 1000cc engine in my thundercat. wayyyyyyy underpowered. Have had the chance to test out the Wlker Evans 900 xp for a good ride. Completly different breed then my S.

Its hard to describe the way it road, but it was definitely smooth tons a power. I did find myself over steering compared to my S but would be easy to get used to. Also a little soft in the corners but maybe the shocks just need to be adjusted a bit. I think the higher ground clearance and softer suspension made it a little harder to slide into corners than my S. But again maybe some tweaking of the suspension and getting used to would fix it all.

All in all its an awesome ride with tons of power. Even with the extra width we managed to get it everywhere the RZR S was going.

Really interested in seeing how this Can am rides.

Yes, good points Zip. Some people go into a purchase with a bias that leads them where they want to go and ........bingo..........there's that "justification" they needed..!!

Mind games and only one player............the mfg !!!

I was thinking the same thing....

Sand bagging ? Or overweight drivers in the other 2 machines ?

cool vid. no hiding behind shiney paint and decals eh anyway this summer on one of the public rides watched a rzr and a wildcat performing for about a half hour or so on a old fire road spinning donuts, drag racing and so on, having fun. The rzr could spin donuts with no effort for as long as he wanted to and when drag racing against the wild cat quit impressive tons of power to the road large roosters, shreadding the tires. The cat on the other hand could not do donuts on the road. road was not wide enough and when dragging with the rzr no roosters and very little wheel spin. Yet every time they raced the cat was in the lead by quit a bit while the rzr was sitting their spinning his wheels the cat had traction and was gone. Talking to the owner of the wild cat later asked him why it looks as though the cat is under powerd no wheel spin yet took the rzr every time he said it has to do with cats fluid damping system in there diffs (isn't that something like what can am has interesting?) i would like to see them all performing in a mud hole somewhere.

In this case yes the wildcat most likely will have the advantage. Put the same two bikes in the dunes and you will see a noticeable difference. Put the same two bikes going up a steep long hill and there will be even more difference. Poo wins everytime (this is stock vs stock). I do believe that in the really rough terrain, the wildcat will win pretty much everytime though cause it has better suspension.

I just saw a video of motobishi against can am and polaris and motobishi won. I am now going to go to buy a moto because the video i saw showed me why it's the best out there LMAO...

Love how some people believe these videos. I would like to hope the people who see the vids and are in awe with the product are people who have never owned a sxs or atv and don't know any better. Most places who sell atv and sxs don't even know there products just like when you go buy a truck they are lost. They go on the net and read off the page LOL

[jeepster]

Haha! Cant believe you are arguing about manufacters vids! Course they are always biased.

I'll keep my old rzr thanks.
