More than the Speed UTVs you have in your garage.  LOL!

Tried Coyne for both. 2nd times was to just confirm they were still full of poo!

It's less expensive over the long haul if you just buy a better quality one that lasts longer.

You are assuming the quality will be better.  That is yet to be seen.  

The quality was not the issue.  It is the material they choose to use for the frame that became the issue.    Frame did not crack at the welds.  It broke in a place that would be considered an anomaly.    I am not scared to share my experience.   I sure hope you Speed UTV owners will be "open and honest" about the issues that arise because there will be issues.  

I made out just fine with the old ride and got lots of use out of it.  Had I been like a majority of owners and just put maybe 1000 miles on it over 3 years I would still be driving it.  LOL!

 
I've pounded and enjoyed my '19 Turbo Velocity S.. exact same ride but different color.. since I bought it new 1/30/2020. Took it straight to KOH bone stock and haven't looked back or had any issues. As far as the SPEED, it's never been an option for me as I don't want to have to change up my TH situation. LOL.. but now I'll be sporting RG orange  :rofl:  .. .. a RZR 'fan boy.'.. or at least that's what I'll tell folks.

Will be buying a box for this one soon, 14-16 foot dual axle with solar, 6V batteries, which, electric tongue jack.. and possibly a fuel station so I don't have to lug gas cans (as much).

I love that he already has a cage (roof) on it.. driving the '19 before upgrades stunk with no roof/shade.

Did you ever wonder why nobody else is using that steel for their UTV chassis? If it was the right choice, everyone would be using it.

I think a lot of Speed owners will be honest about what they get. I will be, and my frame of reference is the TIG welded chromo chassis of my sand rail. 

I do agree, you do get a lot more mileage per year than most people I know, certainly more than I do. Hopefully I'll do more trail riding, etc once I get the Speed.

Don't say it...

:lol:

Can Am likes to use weird stuff.  The dual phase steel might work perfectly fine if they used a thicker wall material.   2022 they allegedly went to thicker wall material, but it does not appear to be for the entire frame. 

 
I would have Ed do it. Had Shock Therapy do my '19. I have an appointment Thanksgiving morning, but I'm going to G Friday and supposed to leave Tuesday (2 days before Thanksgiving).. family will all bail, so not sure I want to be in Glamis alone for 2 days.. I'd get there in the morning, it would be done by noon or so and I'd barely make turkey dinner.. probably going to reschedule.

I'm satisfied with the work they did on the '19.

how much of a difference does the shock work make on the velocity? if you are doing it again for the new one i would think its worth it. 

 
It was a marked improvement from stock… I will definitely be doing it on the new one immediately.

 
Stock it was practically ‘undrivable’ if you go at a good clip IMO.

Congrats on the New ride man.. I hear MTS does a great job on the shocks as well

 
Yee Haw!!… the orange is growing on me. Seats, stiching on the steering wheel.

Had a great time meeting MGMFRP. Solid dude. We have a lot in common.
 

Guess I need to photo and advertise the 1110cc.
