The price point on the base 170 RZR is about 2 or 3K too much for what you actually get. The one I purchased for my daughter was around 4300 bucks before tax when she was 6. She has had it for over 4 years now and really enjoys it, but it's just too much in my opinion for being a modern go-cart with some plastic body wrappings. I wish they had made them like the black one on here when I had gotten hers....the dash is what it should be for the base price as is the rest of the upgrades. Whoever runs Polaris isn't losing any money selling these at the price they do.....playing on the weaker parents that spoil their kids. Nice video too by the way to show what's up with what's out!
me to as well, I think they both have pretty much same power, the Polaris is just lighter so it get up and goes a little quicker, I would choose ssr especially being the popo cost over 1000 extra
mega0876 i never knew SSR made side by sides. Looks pretty neat tho. I had an SSR 150cc pit bike, i was pretty impressed with. If the side by sides are as good as their other products I’m sure it’s a pretty decent machine
I agree , Polaris is way over priced and very unreliabe , if you ride a poloaris hard you are always replacing something , brakes , belts bearings axles . The ssr makes polaris look like a battery toy from walmart
I like the looks and features of the SSR much better, too bad it doesn't have the same pep! But I bet you can make an intake and fab up a barkers exhaust and that'll fix it right up!! lol
The Polaris is made in Tiawan and not by Polaris. It is an off brand just like the Chinese made SSR. Polaris only put the stickers on it. . SSR will be cheaper and have the same dependability. Dealers should inform buyers about this but they don't because most would be smart and just buy the SSR because it is the same machine and cheaper. Polaris is pulling a fast one on the public.
It’s the same with the hammerhead go cart has polaris stickers but the same as the Batman and the dong fang built out of the same plant. Almost half the price not to get the polaris sticker.
Hey thanks for the info...Just picked up a 2017 SSR 170 new was still sitting on shelf for $2,500 out the door .... so will see how it goes! Should be fun for the kids.
Yes they have 250cc motors. This machine uses a china moped, go kart motor 150cc and could be swapped for 250cc motor, ssr and polaris use a totaly different motor.
Very poor comparison !, should be stating both machines are Asian based, Polaris is built in Taiwan, looks like crap compared to the SSR, Polaris with no taillights, brake lights, no speedometer, no gas gauge and still costs 3 times the SSR !! WTF.
Polaris should make rzr 400 4 seater for kids

one other big plus on the SSR imo is the rear cargo are I forgot to mention, nice for my kid to haul stuff around.
EHSRACING does this utv have reverse lights?
@@RealHellCat2007cs 2018 does at least
I would like a ssr but I'd swap out the motor for something bigger maybe even see if I could put a 4x4 quad engine in it 😅

I am 6'2" how tall was your buddy, just to get an idea fit wise.thank you!
What is the price range?
My grandson is 5.9 and wants one.
SSR is a top notch brand that not everyone knows about

Always go for the bigger brand easier to find parts and overall more reliable
Agreed, also resale is horrrble on ssr, good luck, no one wants used. Unless cheap. They bresk easly
Damn Polaris finessing people I would definitely choose the ssr over Polaris just put s bigger engine in it
I agree , Polaris is way over priced and very unreliabe , if you ride a poloaris hard you are always replacing something , brakes , belts bearings axles . The ssr makes polaris look like a battery toy from walmart
So the ssr has exactly the same engine, motor and other things and the only difference is the size, look and the ssr comes with more accessories?
Put them side by side. Parks in the next zip code.
I like the looks and features of the SSR much better, too bad it doesn't have the same pep! But I bet you can make an intake and fab up a barkers exhaust and that'll fix it right up!! lol
I was trying to decide if I want to save money for a ssr 170 or Polaris 170 i think I’m going to go with the ssr 170
The Polaris is made in Tiawan and not by Polaris. It is an off brand just like the Chinese made SSR. Polaris only put the stickers on it. . SSR will be cheaper and have the same dependability.

Any links to verify that?
No polaris owns the company in taiwan
It’s the same with the hammerhead go cart has polaris stickers but the same as the Batman and the dong fang built out of the same plant. Almost half the price not to get the polaris sticker.
I have a 170 rzr and it sucks you can only go through 2 inches of water or it dies
Have you replaced the drive belt on the ssr? Is it difficult? I'm wondering if I should purchase a owner's manual or not.
where u get that black one from i like and i tap the red thang
Hey thanks for the info...Just picked up a 2017 SSR 170 new was still sitting on shelf for $2,500 out the door .... so will see how it goes! Should be fun for the kids.
How is it im thinking of picking one up
can you do a in depth review on the SSR 179
170
esse parece forte,como fazer comprar?
How much does a ssr170 cost? I found one for $1800, so idk if I should jump on it.
That’s a great deal they are about 3 or 4 thousand
Will it fit in the bed of a pick up truck?
Yes
How had your phone not dropped yet
how much are they
Is service a problem with the SSRs?
Can the ssr engine be upgraded ? or maybe a bigger engine swapped ?
Yes they have 250cc motors. This machine uses a china moped, go kart motor 150cc and could be swapped for 250cc motor, ssr and polaris use a totaly different motor.
What would I buy a polairs 170 or ssr utv 170 ?
Polaris
how much did the SSR cost you?
how much
Which one goes faster
They have the same engine
Whats the top speed
So basically the Polaris has faster exceleration than the ssr
Polaris fuel injection and SSR is still carbed.
Ssr is way better
i got the rzr 170
Eleanor Bosley where did u get it and how much
Very poor comparison !, should be stating both machines are Asian based, Polaris is built in Taiwan, looks like crap compared to the SSR, Polaris with no taillights, brake lights, no speedometer, no gas gauge and still costs 3 times the SSR !! WTF.
Well yes the ssr 170 is for grown ups
