There hasn't been this big of a gamechanger in the UTV market as long as we can remember. That's right we thought the chances of us getting our hand on a 2022 Polaris RZR Pro R this soon were slim to none. Thankfully the folks at America Offroad Endurance preordered this machine and allowed us to put it to our test at Stony Lonesome OHV with the help of our friend and RZR Life owner David Uptain. Enjoy this Busted Knuckle Ride and Review of a brand new machine that we think is a game changer. The new 2022 Polaris RZR Pro R 4 comes with a 1997cc 4 cylinder engine making 225hp naturally aspirated without a Turbo. That isn't where the innovations stop. This machine has a new separate Rear Diff and Transmission. All of the Racers will be happy because the Pro R comes with a alternator. This is the first we have seen for any utv in this class. Speaking of class this new machine is in a class of its own being 74" wide and a ton of travel. This Dynamix edition also features 3 new ECU modes for throttle control and 5 different suspension modes to choose from. Check it all out in this Busted Knuckle Ride and Review.

Tires seem too small. What size are they stock?

@dirtdogmartin1865 2 жыл бұрын

They are just big machines with huge suspension components and long wheel base, so the stock 15 inch wheels with 32 inch tires look small. Polaris did design the Pro R to cycle 35 inch tires, which then would look more proportional. Not to mention that the stock "32 inch" tire measures at 30.5 inches. Maybe a true 33 inch would be a good compromise...... or just throw some 37's at it! 😜
