One thing I noticed while going through the MN DNR regulations on Type 1 and Type 2 ATV's is that once they go past 1000cc's, it cannot be classified as a Type 2 anymore like all other SXS units. I wonder if that has bearing on why they didn't use the 1049cc Viper/nytro motor. Would that be the same in other states as well?
And if that were the case, why not use the Apex motor, as it sure seems to be the motor of choice for the RZR guys wanting a Reliable/durable boosted engine.
All I know is I wish it were in my price range. I guess it will be like Yamaha boats, I will shop today, for what I can justify in 4-5 years used.
