[Timmi]

[willie]

Well what's your thoughts on it, we are dying to know what someone thinks about it.

 

[wvwolverine]

suspension is great even if you ride hard...needs a hotrod sheave kit for sure...level ground done good..up hills it was sluggish...i got some vids!!

WVWOLVERINE: for us guys that have rhinos that are on the fence about plunking down the $$$ for a new wolverine, could you explain the differences you have experienced so far?

i know you're a dyed-in-the-wool rhino fan, so i trust your opinion more than anyone else's...

 

[willie]

Sounds pretty good so far, looks plenty fast for trail riding.

 

[Mikef]

Question. When you sit in a Rhino you sit down inside of it compared to some other side by side models that seem to sit more upright and higher. The Rhino is very comfortable to me. Is the Wolverine the same as the Rhino?

 

[wvwolverine]

yes..it is very comfortable

heres a few things about it and im being picky for my ridn style...Brakes are awesome,felt like it would do 40-0 in 15ft lol.......visibility is great except the windshield folds down and at the fold with it up blocks some of the view and bad up hills....coverage wasnt bad but still slung some mud in the cab and bed but the yamaha flares that we ordered should fix that.....lighting like always sucked...looked like 2 candles with a little mud on them.....cab heat,there was none!!! tried warming my fingers by sticking them down the e brake hole and could feel NOTHING and no steam!!!..thats gonna be nice this summer and it helped with the noise!!..drink holder didnt get hot.....console lid is a little cheap....oil cooler is huge..it has like cab forward design and the cab is huge but you get hit with more limbs in the face...gauges need a visor of sort cause it was hard to see in the daytime with sunshine...seatbelts make a little noise in the rough but wasnt bad...storage is great in the cab...seats are very comfortable...console set high and made both our elbows sore...my right knee got a little sore from rubbing the dog house but not bad..needs factory alum. wheels....needs bed cover for our ridn type...door latches worked great...i miss the hood opening and the tailgate...the roll cage bars in the roof should be level with the cage not raised..handled GREAT!!!...just needs some JBS Performance love!!...had this going since 9 this morning and thats all i got for now so i dont lose it...lol...more coming!!!

Thank you Sir for the report! I am happy to hear of the lack of heat. Thankfully door latches are unlike the Viking. No opening hood? rats!

I know the measurements make it close for going into a lwb pickup bed. I have been told it will barely fit in a newer Dodge or Chevy. I would like confirmation on that from whom ever can confirm.

Thank you kindly!

Awesome review! Thanks I know we all appreciate it.

I am also thinking about looking into a new one. I was wondering how loud is the cab noise is. I have a john deere gator rsx and its alomost unbearable.

 

[Timmi]

I have driven the Gator rsx. The Wolverine is much quieter than that. It is about the same as my 570 rzr.

 

[Rockit401]

How is the vibration compared to the 570 and is there any drive train noise or is it mostly exhaust?

 

[Danfrompa]

Thats what i wanted to hear now i just got to get rid of my rsx and get back to yamaha.

 

[need for speed]

good review can you tell me what the top speed was

 

[TNWolverine]

good review can you tell me what the top speed was

He said on another post it topped out at 53-54 mph

 

[wvwolverine]

59 today with a hotrod extreme sheave

 

[TNWolverine]

Will this setup help with larger tires, say 28"? I do not really care about top speed but would like to add larger tires for more ground clearance trail riding.
