  • I finally traded in my 2015 RZR Trail EPS for a 2023 RZR Trail Ultimate. These are my tips, recommendations and comparison of the two machines after nearly 10 years of riding them.

    Nice review on your 2023 trail 50!!

    I have a sxs, and I am wanting an ATV, but the 50 inch width of the Trail RZR just might be what I will get, now that I watched your vid!

      It’s a lot more comfortable to drive an sxs. It’s also less physical because you have to use your body to steer a quad. And there’s no sun protection so a 50” rzr is kind of a wimpy quad LOL.

    Have you had to deal with the timing chain tensioner on your old rzr?
    We bought a 2015 rzr trail with only 1100 miles and 130 hours and after two rides I now notice a knock from the passenger side of the engine after a cold start that goes away after 30 seconds to 2 minutes of running. 99% sure its the tensioner and im about to install a manual tensioner to eliminate it as a failure point...just curious if anyone has actually had good luck with the oem tensioner, seems like its an extremly common failure point.

    • @ramblingadventures
      @ramblingadventures  5 месяцев назад

      No. I always thought the timing chain was really noisy but when I got the new machine, it had the exact same level of sound. In fact, many of the noised I thought had “crept up” on the 2015 were there from the first mile with the. new one. There is something about the startup knock sound and I can’t remember the explanation that I’d read but it wasn’t piston knock but something related that wasn’t an actual issue,

      @ramblingadventures I see, well, that's good to hear because the replacement tensioner made no difference after I installed it last night... Oh well, I have an oil pressure guage installed, and that shows excellent pressure, so im not gonna worry about it unless the sound gets much worse. Thanks for the reply!

    Those tires and rims.

    • @ramblingadventures
      @ramblingadventures  4 месяца назад

      Yep, It's the same size from 2016 through the newer design in 2023. For a few 900s, they had the same width wheel front and back but if you have the "normal" wider rear wheels, this size should work.

      The advantage of the on-board system is that it doesn’t use or need a cell connection.

    Hi, what happend to your 2015 rzr? Did the engine finally die on it?

    • @ramblingadventures
      @ramblingadventures  6 месяцев назад

      No, actually it was running fine. I just had a list of things I needed to replace (like wheel bearings) and decided I wanted the features on the Ultimate like the Fox Shocks and Ride Command. It’s actually for sale at the dealer.

      @@tacobocks333 Awesome! I just put new clutches in it. They have like 50 miles. The things I'd do is check the brake pads, change the wheel bearings and watch the CV boot on the left rear because the inner one has a bit of rot. Just make sure it doesn't perish. I did a service on that not long ago too. It should be in the book though I ran out of space in the book.
