We have only shot a few full proper reviews, for the Rzr 900 for example, and why we bought one. Closer is top things to consider when buying a SXS, this was in a Q&A format in a user-submitted "Ask the Beaten Trail" video. I wish we had some demo units or a place to do testing on the trail. We do have some partners in the industry, so that would be a great idea to work with a dealership on some of those features and what is best. Full in the field testing is difficult unless you can "borrow" a few units for a few weeks or months for testing. I think its an excellent suggestion, and we'd love to put some ATVs and SXS through the test. Just the units we ride are so different and separate, that its not fair to compare them to each other. Thanks for the suggestion!
@@TheBeatenTrail how do you think a new 6 seater honda pioneer would handle the trails in FRO and AOAA? I'm trying to collect as much feedback as possible b4 dropping 22K plus tax I'm always concerned about the wheelbase length
A 4 or 6 seater will do fine. 64 inches if I'm looking at the right model. Just from riding FRO and AOAA, you want to be sure to have a skid plate, not the stock one, and arm protectors, Rock sliders. Without those, you'll see some more than scrapes and dings depending on your riding style. Tires...well, stock tires will get eaten up on the rocks in PA, and most places, so if you cannot afford a new set, I would ensure you have a spare, a jack, and gluetread, tire plug kit, sidewall slugs, a compressor and know how to use them all. FRO and AOAA offer all kinds of variety when it comes to trails, just most will be rocky. Hope that helps!
@The Beaten Trail Yes it does. Thank you! Also, have you done any riding in the Pine Barrens, NJ? I'm an hour from there and and 2 hours from the Pottsville/Ashland area.
I have not since I was riding ATVs years ago, someone local could tell you the current state of it, but I do see some people posting crackdowns on riders down there. YMMV. Also check out the DCNR locations, smaller but free, Dixon miller, burnt mills, Michaux...all different width restrictions, unsure if you ATV as well as SXS. We have a few videos up and also checkout the NEPA trails, (O&W) trails.PA/NY
🇺🇲🤗🙏
Thank you for sharing
Thank you too for watching!
nice sunny day!
Pucker up…
My back yard literally. I can be at the start of royal blue in 10 mins. Tons of trails. You gotta be careful end up 3 counties over and have no idea
That area is massive, just checking on a map, TN goes on forever!
If you ever want hard trails in Campbell county I can actually make ya butt pucker. These are all solid trails twra keeps up well
I am hoping to get back down there later in the year. Will shoutout when I do, thanks!

Got pretty sketchy at the end!
Yes, was a steep angle.
