Great Video Guys! Pro R needs a Turbo and DCT while the Mav R needs a bigger engine. F a 1000 CC heavy sand car but I still Love the Maverick overall, even with the undersized engine.
Great vid. Ive never seen the Mav R but after looking at video compared to Pro R, I'd prefer the low and wider Mav. I got a ride in Pro R in Glamis last week and immediately felt so high in it and even asked does it feel like it wants to tip. Driver admitted at times yes and I also admit damn thing was very loud. Might have to hold off a year to see what Polaris releases next as Im guessing DCT and wide like Mav and Speed.
Why???.....the 2000cc puts it legally in the "sand car" classification and eliminates some of the restrictions found with today's side by side......just sayin....
I don’t do any of the editing, all of the credit goes to Dallin and his wife. They spend countless hours on editing, filming, charging, fixing equipment. It’s a labor of love for the viewers
Great video guys, love the head to head action! Have to say the Maverick R is growing on me, even starting to like the looks a bit. I’m am struggling with the price though, there all kinds of factory incentives on Pro R’s right now, so a Pro R Ultimate can be had for roughly 10k less than a smart shock Mav. At this point I would say Pro R to Mav R retail to retail price I would buy the Mav R.
@@downbytheriver501 ya more likely to go through some belts if I turboed a pror I would keep it in a lower boost and not go extreme for that reason and keep it in one piece
I have an x3 friends have new pro r I sat in them still feels really high and more of a pucker factor in the dunes in my opinion. But has somebody that has owned two LS1 sand cars nothing compares to those for the ultimate dune experience.
@@desertsxs yes I agree. The can am is way better in my opinion. I rode in the very early four seat model x3 in 2017 I believe. At the time I had an LS1 car and genuinely impressed with how close the x3 was to a rail on how it sat and handled. Can Am has done the homework. Was just in Gordon’s well over new years with the x3 RR I have and I love it.
@@desertsxssince you guys have experience in trying different sand tires for the sand, would you recommend 32” on a 21 , 2 seat X3 XRS stock engine? On my car, I feel 33” sand tires would make the cg feel a little high in the dunes. 🤷🏼♂️
@@phillaird1091 I recommend same size as stock or taller. I will always do a taller tire than stock personally. I do it so I don’t bottom out on g outs as bad is the main reason
That Funco is an amazing and powerful machine, but at a fraction of that cars price (and maintenance), the side by sides are a definite win for the (slightly above?) average Joe! I gotta say, that while this is about the Pro and Mav R, the fact that the entire group stayed so tight together throughout the video is an impressive testament to how far the side by sides have improved! Great job boys!
Well said! Sxs world has evolved crazy over the last 8 years for sure to being so versatile and competitive to big price tag equipment in rocks sand trails all over
Guess its all subjective to what you like tbh. Both are great platforms and do the same job. Next video throw in the speed UTV with the comparison, now that they are finally out. 😂
@@desertsxs haha, i can only imagine. I havent even seen one out on the dunes, in oregon or sand mt, yet. Would love to see how my PROXP stacks up after my mods/tune.
It’s because you’re supposed to rock crawl in manual mode obviously a lot of people didn’t get told how to operate the transmission while rock crawling🤷🏽
I haven’t had that problem if it’s in manual mode in low with no issues If in automatic rock crawling is no good. Mav r car takes more figuring out on what modes to use and not use
You must’ve watched my buddy’s video of me rock crawling last weekend in sand hollow. I figured it out. Manual mode. It’s a rock crawling beast now. Did “Iraq” on “the fallen” trail with it and definitely didn’t take the ideal line. Will release a video of it soon. I think with a gear reduction, this thing is gonna be a rock crawling beast from what I experienced after the last week and a half down in SH. Tons of potential.
This is just my opinion. And don’t get me wrong because when the Maverick first came out, I consider buying one. I do like them but I just think the pro r for me is still the better car. I think the suspension is better. The car all around is still stronger. I like the seating position better. I like the fact that the seats can just be pulled out for cleaning without having to unbolt them, I like the GPS and ride command, and group ride set up better, and still like the seating position better in the Polaris.
@@1cavscout160 I do not have a problem with CVT. I would rather have a belt. Once I learned how to set up the clutch and have a temperature gauge I don’t break belts anymore.
100% on your assessment. The Pro R is also more fun to drive in the dunes. Not as fast but more fun. The Mav R has a few tricks up her sleeve that the Pro R cannot do. The transmission changed the game.
At this point who cares what's the better of the side by side whatever unit you're happy with drive They are also close that what I'm in is ridiculous And then the money you spend after you get one trying to make it better and faster and more power and blow it up and break it and it cost you more money ridiculous
When Polaris gets their head out of their ass and developes a DCT transmission (which I imagine they're developing it now and will release it next year or following year at the latest) and couple with a good solid 60 ml turbo this would be the fastest torkiest side-by-side on the market easily.. another benefit of being a turbo, you can ride at higher elevations like St Anthony's without such a loss of power... I mean s***, look at LaRue's racing and the power he can get from that 2 l is insane, 750 horsepower at the ground and that's with a 40% reduction due to belt drive!! Imagine that same engine output in a direct drive transmission yeah, game changer for a couple years with a competition to pick up.. But there's the Segway supervillain four-cylinder( hybrid or not) coming out with pretty substantial specs.....$235 horsepower and nearly twice a torque of the poor R... Curious how it will respond to tunes and aftermarket support, possibly a serious contender in this market.. ESPECIALLY AT THE ENTRY PRICE OF 27.5 K! LOTS OF MONEY LEFT OVER FOR UPGRADES!
The Mav R motor is impressive, under 1000 cc and is the fastest car out there. One issue with the 4 cylinders is that it negates competition in many race classes. Technically Polaris is still putting up the Turbo R as the competition for the Mav R. The Pro R is currently in its own class, and the Mav R smacks both the Pro R and Turbo R. If Polaris truly wants to compete, they need to prove it in a 1000 cc
The Pro R motor is joke. 2000cc boat anchor that’s in a class by itself that doesn’t make any more power than a tuned x3. You guys are down at sea level so it barely gets by, but you take the Pro R up in altitude, and it quickly diminishes in power significantly .. i just think it’s a huge swing and a miss for Polaris.
I thought maybe you knew what You were talking about, then I watched the video. Pro r looked pretty good. Sounds like you’re an x3 owner who got hurt by a pro r
@@jabroni6199 no I am not a canned ham owner You’re the one that is a joke. Do you know how much horsepower a canned ham would make without a turbo. Pro r 2 L motor is way better than the canned ham motor. and capable of twice the horsepower.
Reminds me of the old 250R and Banchee days. One you are on top, one you are in it. Both good platforms. Just different.
Yes very true
Love what you guys do!
Thanks
Thank you
That was badAss
Hope 2 c u out there
MLK
Watch the Pro R suspension thru the whoops. It looks like a magic carpet ride. I rode with one last weekend and it was fast in the deep ruts.
Geat rip. You looked plenty close in the video. I'm still using my stock clutch but when my Tapp gets repaired I need to come ride with you guys.
Ya for sure
Great Video Guys! Pro R needs a Turbo and DCT while the Mav R needs a bigger engine. F a 1000 CC heavy sand car but I still Love the Maverick overall, even with the undersized engine.

It does feel tippy compared to Maverick but surprisingly takes a lot to roll
One thing we always forget to mention is that the Mav R is still just a 1000 cc. Pro R is 2000 cc.
Polaris needs to make a 1000cc mav R fighter
Why???.....the 2000cc puts it legally in the "sand car" classification and eliminates some of the restrictions found with today's side by side......just sayin....
Your videos are very good. I have a with Maveric r. It’s overheating and the agency doesn’t find the fault.
Thanks that sucks sorry mine is having issues too but my buddies aren’t so it’s hit and miss it seems
Looks even to me!
Great pace! I miss rides like that. I need another can-am
Thanks
Nice vid boys.
Thanks!
Lol, filming is harder than driving - true that! Then there's editing which most don't realize the time involved. Good job to you all!
Thanks it does put a different way to look at it when riding which I do like
I don’t do any of the editing, all of the credit goes to Dallin and his wife.
They spend countless hours on editing, filming, charging, fixing equipment. It’s a labor of love for the viewers
Thanks for the video. When evo drops an e85 tune for the mav-r its going to really change that car.
Yeah, but it still won’t make the power of putting a evo turbo on a pro R
I hope we get to see I’m very curious how it stacks up

Thanks very true you could buy a pro r and turbo it for the for a similar price as the mav r so that’s tempting
@@desertsxsbut the 5k in belts per year would disincentivize one 😆. Or is that not as much an issue? I’d imagine that thing boosted would eat belts
@@downbytheriver501 ya more likely to go through some belts if I turboed a pror I would keep it in a lower boost and not go extreme for that reason and keep it in one piece
Wow, so a stock Mav R pulled away from a stage three Bikeman Pro R! I know the Mac had a little more paddle still impressive!
Ya I think paddled the same it would of been very even but yes mav r is impressive
I have an x3 friends have new pro r I sat in them still feels really high and more of a pucker factor in the dunes in my opinion. But has somebody that has owned two LS1 sand cars nothing compares to those for the ultimate dune experience.
Yes sand cars are the best for dunes. Mav r is as close as it gets to sand cars

lol got to love Glamis for that
Mav has ALWAYS looked more like a sandrail (sleeker, lower, sit lower)… always preferred it.
But the Pro R has a Stage 3 tune and the Mav is stock????
Very true, but Mav did have monster paddles and Pro R didn’t.
What size tires are you guys running in the Mave R? Look like 32” correct?
33” on black mav r. 34” on yellow mav r

What is crazy is watching the Maverick R kicking out of 1st gear into neutral all on its own while rock climbing
It’s because you’re supposed to rock crawl in manual mode obviously a lot of people didn’t get told how to operate the transmission while rock crawling🤷🏽
I haven’t had that problem if it’s in manual mode in low with no issues
If in automatic rock crawling is no good.

I suspect a near future tune will alleviate that issue, it's all in the tuning...

Stock Mav R, tuned/cam'd Pro R, right?
Yes mav r stock but better paddles
Pror Bikeman stage 3 cams tune
I’ll probably turbo the pro R. I still don’t trust cam am quality
Ya I am kinda with you there
Good video, does the Funco guy not have any Funco friends?
Kinda weird he wants to hang with your ladies.
$2.00, where's my $2.00 ????
He is down to earth even with that beast he will ride with anyone even us peasants asking for $2
@@desertsxs Must make him feel powerful hanging with SXS's. I'm guessing he is into some illegal sh!t not doubt, probably something to do with drugs.

Still a belt car though. I have a built X3 now and it will be my last car with a belt. Hopefully DCT is the future for Polaris.
