Minneapolis, July 27, 2009 – Off-Road Enthusiast CJ Rena Johnson is on a mission, a mission to cure. Johnson, along with her Pink Polaris RANGER RZR, is visiting private, public, local, state and federal ATV and OHV parks around the country to spread the word and raise money for various charities including American Cancer Society, American Breast Cancer Society, Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and St. Jude Children Research Hospital.

“I wanted to show that off-road enthusiasts are an active community involved in helping to improve our lives and the lives of those around us, locally, statewide and nationally,” said Johnson. “We are going to take the nation by storm conquering every ATV and OHV park in our path to raise money, and have fun while doing it.”

“OHV Tour for a Cure” works by having sponsors, groups, businesses, participants, spectators and other riders pledge donations to the charity of their choice. Johnson’s site, www.cjrenajohnson.com will keep a running total of monies pledged to the different charities and also list contributors and sponsors. The site also has an updated list of places “OHV Tour for a Cure” will stop so people can get involved. Johnson attends every event and rides along in her Pink Polaris RANGER RZR which has become a symbol of the tour.

“When Johnson approached us about the tour, I knew we had the perfect Side-by-Side for the cause,” said Donna Beadle, spokesperson for Polaris. “CJ has told us she gets a lot of attention due to the Pink vehicle. The more attention we can draw to the tour, the more money that can be raised to find a cure.”

Add Cooling Capacity to your Polaris RZR with a Fluidyne Radiator

Fluidyne Radiator for Polaris RZR
POLARIS RZR GAINS 53 PERCENT MORE COOLANT CAPACITY WITH FLUIDYNE® POWERSPORTS RADIATOR

SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. (July 16, 2009) - Peak engine performance is only achieved at optimal coolant temperatures.Like many UTV motors, the RZRs 760cc Twin sometimes struggles to accelerate its half-ton of side-by-side fun and remain properly cooled in less-than-optimal conditions, such as when slogging through mud holes or hammering around the dunes. At various levels, this can lead to overheating, short-term power loss, premature oil breakdown or worse.
To ward off these worries, FLUIDYNE® Powersports new Polaris RZR radiator was developed to enhance low-air-flow driving conditions and provide consistent cooling in high-speed.
Boasting increased width at 38mm deep (12mm deeper than stock), 32-tube core, this beefy unit has 53 percent more fluid capacity (1360cc vs. 887cc) to significantly lower coolant temperatures. These upgraded specs are bolstered by FLUIDYNE''s® unique, positive-sealing, internal, splitter-plate design which ensures that every ounce of fluid circulates through its core.
FLUIDYNE''s® new RZR radiator is also stronger and more durable than its OEM counterpart. Constructed from aircraft-quality aluminum, structural improvements include thicker materials throughout and beaded hose connections for leak-proof sealing. These components are held together with beefy TIG welds to withstand extreme conditions and produce a crash survival rate far exceeding the OEM unit. The kit also includes two aluminum spacers that shim the heat-sensitive black box out of harm''s way.
Not only does FLUIDYNE® Powersports'' new RZR radiator out-cool and outlast the stock unit, it comes with a one-year warranty and installs easily, utilizing the factory mounts, hardware and fan assembly.
Winners in the 2009 Baja 500 Utility ATV and Open Pro Motorcycle classes, FLUIDYNE® Powersports radiators have been proven around the world. Developed and manufactured in the United States, they are built upon 50 years of experience in vehicular fluid dynamics.Available for the Polaris RZR and other late-model side-by-side vehicles, ATVs and motorcycles, FLUIDYNE® Powersports radiators are sold through dealers nationwide. When the heat is on, FLUIDYNE® Powersports radiators keep things cool.

FLUIDYNE® Powersports Polaris RZR Radiator
Part Number: FPS11-9RZR
Retail Price: $489.95

About Fluidyne:

New Twin Plate Shock Braces for the Polaris RZR

Thunderhawk Performance has developed this twin-plate rear shock brace in response to the demands of our more extreme customers. Fast trail riding over rough terrain and jumping can bend the stock rear shock mounting tabs. Even stock RZR’s are prone to damaging their rear shock mounts when ridden hard. Polaris has increased the thickness of this area of the frame on 2009 models in an attempt to fix this, but we still have customers with 2009’s bending their shock mounts. The Thunderhawk twin-plate rear shock brace kit will eliminate this problem on all RZR’s.

This Thunderhawk kit includes our PQ3312 rear upper shock mount brace which mounts to the rear of the factory shock mounts and ties the Polaris RZR rear frame cross-tube and upper suspension mounting points together. This part is designed to eliminate the chassis twist caused by rear suspension loads. This twin-plate kit also includes a second heavy-duty brace for the front-side of the RZR rear shock mount to sandwich the factory frame and resist the bending that occurs from hard riding and jumping.

ATR Polaris RZR Solid Shift Kit



Polaris RZR Solid Shift Kit - includes CNC machined shift handle, preload washer and bronze bushings that replace the factory plastic bushings and take out all of the loose play in the factory shift lever. Unlike other shift handles on the market the ATR handle is keyed so that it will not spin loose. It bolts in like the factory shifter from the top and the machined cap is held on with a set screw. This is a much better design instead of expecting one set screw to keep the handle from spinning.

Durable poly-graphite inserts are more durable and less prone to failure than standard rubber designs; yet still deliver smooth power without excessive vibration unlike rigid mount systems.

The HRP Billet RZR Motor Mount Kit comes complete with three aluminum mounts, poly-graphite inserts, sleeves and complete installation instructions. As with all Holz Racing Products, the HRP Billet Motor Mount Kit has been extensively tested and race proven under the most grueling conditions and was designed and manufactured right here in North America.

Polaris RZR Permitted on Wayne National Forest Trail System

Source:
http://blackhillsportal.com/npps/story.cfm?id=2973

Vehicle complies with the maximum 50-inch width limit
By Gary C. Chancey, Public Affairs Officer

Nelsonville, Ohio (March 13, 2009) – Managers of Ohio’s longest designated off-highway vehicle (OHV) trail system are giving the green light to one of the most popular OHVs on the market. The Wayne National Forest is allowing the new Polaris RZR 50-inch wide vehicle to be used on its motorized trail system. However, the Polaris RZR-S model is not permitted, because it is over 50 inches wide.

The decision was reached after a recent field test of the RZR on the Monday Creek ATV Trail System near Nelsonville. Forest staff, representatives from American Motorcycle Association (AMA) and All-terrain Vehicle Association (ATVA), Polaris Industries, and other local ATV partners tested the vehicle.
Results from the field test found the RZR to have similar maneuverability on the trails as any traditional 50-inch wide ATV. It should be noted that because of the tight bridge width clearance of many of the Wayne’s trail bridges, riders should take extra precautions and “square up” the vehicle before crossing.
The public is allowed to use any ATV on the Forest’s designated motorized trail system as long as the vehicle complies with the maximum 50-inch width limit. The RZR is exactly 50-inch wide if equipped with stocked tires. However, a change to the tires or adding any after-market accessories that causes the vehicle to be wider than 50 inches is not allowed.

The Wayne’s trail system will be open for riding on Wednesday, April 15th. The Forest reminds riders to register their vehicle with the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) and purchase a Wayne Trail Permit before riding the trails. Trail permits may be purchased at the Wayne National Forest Headquarter near Nelsonville, Ohio, at Forest Ranger District offices, or any of the 26 participating vendor locations. For a list of vendor locations, visit the Forest’s web site.

Wayne National Forest offers 121 miles of designated motorized trail system on the Athens & Ironton Ranger District. There are no designated motorized trails on the Forest’s Marietta Unit. Annually, more than 40,000 visitors experience the Forest trails.
For more information about recreation opportunities on the Wayne National Forest, visit the Forest’s web site at http://www.fs.fed.us/r9/wayne/rec.html or contact the following Forest District Offices: Athens – (740) 753-0101; Marietta – (740) 373-9055; Ironton – (740) 534-6500.

Polaris RZR Chassis Ribs

New from All Terrain Research - Polaris RZR Chassis Ribs add strength to the rear of your chassis by bracing the sides of the chassis together with the existing factory holes and by also tying into the upper and lower A arm mounting points. The Chassis Ribs are CNC laser cut from 3/16" steel plate. For the upper A arm mounts instead of simply welding a washer to a chopped tube like some manufactures may do ATR CNC machines a stair stepped end piece that centers itself inside the tube and provides us a gap for a flush TIG weld that evenly penetrates both pieces. Chassis Ribs come in a durable black powder coat finish.

Bringing years of experience ATR serves as a full service prototyping and manufacturing company developing products for some of today’s leading off road vehicle manufacturers.

UTVGuide.net celebrates its first year on the net with the year in review

UTVGuide.net
As 2008 comes to a close, UTVGuide.net celebrates a successful first year on the internet. Created in December 2007 as an off-shoot from DuneGuide.com, UTVGuide.net is now visited by nearly 50,000 visitors each month. “The UTV market segment is a very exciting place to be,” remarked Jon Crowley, owner of UTVGuide.net. “The sport UTV market took off five years ago with the introduction of the Yamaha Rhino, and new models and manufacturers are hitting dealer showrooms at an incredible pace.”

Just a few of the exciting things that happened in the UTV market during the last year include: Kawasaki’s introduction of the 2008 Teryx and 2009 Teryx Sport; Polaris was first to the market with factory long travel on their RZR S; and Arctic Cat set the bar high for power hungry sport users with their new Prowler 1000 XTZ.

UTVGuide.net was thrilled to be invited to the 2009 Arctic Cat 1000 XTZ press intro and the 2009 Kawasaki Teryx Sport press intro during 2008, and we look forward to participating in many more UTV model intros next year.

Highlights for the year at UTVGuide.net include being chosen as a test driver for Side x Side Action Magazine’s 1st UTV Shootout, and their Kawasaki Battle of the Builders. And few incredible UTV trips rounded out 2008. In May, we traveled south of the border to Baja with Off-Road Warehouse and Side x Side Action Magazine for the 1st Annual Mexico UTV run. And in October we made a trip to the Grand Canyon that won’t soon be forgotten with Side x Side Outfitterz.

Our UTV stable includes two project vehicles, a 2008 Polaris RZR and a 2008 Kawasaki Teryx. Both UTVs have been extensively featured in Side x Side Action Magazine and we are blessed to work with so many great companies that helped us on the projects. Over the next month, the number of UTVs in our stable will more than double with a new Kawasaki Teryx that we are building up for the King of the Hammers UTV Competition, a long term demo of a Polaris RZR S, and a demo unit of the new 2009 Polaris Ranger HD.

2008 has been a great year for us. As we look forward to the next year, we’d like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and hope that everyone has a successful 2009.



About UTVGuide.net
UTVGuide.net was created to give people a place to research side x side vehicles. From vehicle tests to product reviews and from buyer’s guides to UTV Industry News, UTVGuide.net covers all aspects of UTVs. UTVGuide.net can be found on the net at www.utvguide.net.

His four-man team including himself and Phil Holdsworth as drivers, and Jason Spiess and Derek Tungmala as navigators, finished third in the Baja 1000 despite a couple accidents and challenges. The finish made Polaris Side-by-Sides the only vehicles to finish the Baja 250, 500 and 1,000; with a RANGER RZR finishing the 500 and 1000 this year, and Matt Parks’ 2007 history-making finish of the Baja 250 in a Polaris RANGER XP.

“The vehicle handled the silt, rocks, whoops and sand like a dream,” said Mark Lindsay. “Being the only Side-by-Side brand to finish the various SCORE races proves Polaris vehicles are more rugged than any other Side-by-Side.”

Lindsay’s team was sponsored by Afraidium Racing, FST, BS Sand Seats, Maier MFG, Maxxis, Iron City Polaris, King Shocks, ATVonics, TireBalls, DriFire Clothing, RE/MAX Lindsay Group, HMF Exhaust, Clif Bar, OMF and Vision X.

Lindsay’s SCORE championship is the fourth for the RANGER RZR in 2008. Jagged X and their No. 1919 RANGER RZR took their second Best in the Desert Points Championship in 2008 starting the season with two second-places and ending it with a dominating five consecutive firsts. Multi-time Pro and Pro Production GNCC Winner, William Yokley raced the Polaris RANGER RZR in GNCC’s ”UTV Open Modified” class and went undefeated taking the GNCC UTV Championship. And, Polaris/Lone Star/Eichner Racing’s Doug Eichner captured the top spot for the WORCS Side-by-Side title on his RANGER RZR with six podium finishes.

Jagged X’s RANGER RZR Finishes “Best in the Desert” Series Strong and Takes Championship for Second Year in a Row

Minneapolis, December 9, 2008 – Jagged X and their No. 1919, RANGER RZR finished the “Best in the Desert” series strong with another win at the “Henderson Fabtech Desert Classic” this past weekend. The win finished another dominating season that brought Jagged X and the RANGER RZR their second, consecutive BITD championship.

The Jagged X/Polaris Racing RANGER RZR team had already secured the season championship but was determined to finish the season as strong as possible. The field had a surprising number of entries with 10 teams lining up at the start for the approximately 150 mile race. The No. 1919 started in the sixth position driven by Blake Van De Loo and performed perfectly for the four-hour race. After swapping the lead several times, the RANGER RZR was able to pull ahead and take the first place finish by more than 10 minutes.

This race marks the fifth consecutive win for the Jagged X/Polaris Racing team which began the season with two second place finishes. This is the first time a Side-by-Side has completed every single race mile for an entire racing season in the BITD series. The Side-by-Sides also are the only class competing in a seven race season, with all other classes racing five races. The race also marks the 14th consecutive finish for the Jagged X RANGER RZR. These accomplishments proves the RANGER RZR is the hardest working, hardest racing Side-by-Side available.

“Polaris would like to congratulate Jagged X on their second Best in the Desert Championship,“ said Craig Scanlon, product line sales manager for the Polaris Side x Side Division. “The Jagged X team has been extremely dedicated to the RANGER RZR racing effort and their continued success and second championship is well deserved. We look forward to the 2009 race season with hopes Jagged X will continue its win streak and secure another championship.”

In the first-year of production for the RANGER RZR, Jagged X did the unthinkable and won the 2007 BITD championship. Jagged X got their first podium, taking second, at the 2007 “Blue Water Grand Prix” and took their first first-place at the 2007 “Vegas to Reno” race and never looked back. They finished the season with three first-place finishes and one second-place and the BITD championship.

In 2008, Jagged X and the No. 1919 started the season with two second-place finishes and then went on a tear finishing the season with five consecutive first-places, and the 2008 championship.

“The RANGER RZR is an amazing platform for our desert race program and we have to thank Polaris industries for their continued support,” said Bill Schueler of Jagged X. “We all work very hard together to finish and win races, and will stay on the cutting edge of Side-by-Side racing as our sport’s popularity continues to grow.”

2008 Polaris RZR Voltage Regulator Relocation Harness

Charging issues solved with voltage regulator relocation

Have you noticed your battery light blinking on your 2008 Polaris RZR? This alarm is telling you that the battery voltage on your RZR is too low. You would think that with a 500W stator that the RZR would have no problem keeping everything running. But even with no accessories and just the factory headlights and cooling fan on, many owners have encountered low voltage issues with their 2008 RZR.

One main reason that causes this problem is your voltage regulator. The voltage regulator is designed to automatically maintain a constant voltage level. In doing that work, the regulator will generate heat.

Your voltage regulator needs to stay cool to properly charge your battery. 2008 RZRs have a problem with keeping the voltage regulator cool because it is located under the driver's seat.


Once the regulator stops working, any power generated from the stator will not reach your electrical system and the battery voltage will drop. Then the battery light on your dash will start blinking and it is just a matter of time before you are stranded.

Polaris solved this problem on the 2009 RZRs by moving the voltage regulator up in front of the radiator. Now you can do the same thing on your 2008 RZR without cutting any wires! Our wire extension allows you to move your voltage regulator from under the seat (no air flow = overheating) to in front of the radiator just like Polaris did on the 2009 models.


This is a 10 1/2 foot long extension, using the correct Packard/Delphi connectors and terminals and assembled with correct Packard tooling. The harnesses will be made using high quality Cross Link Polymer wire and covered in high temp, flexible woven loom. This harness allows you to disconnect the voltage regulator on your 2008 Polaris RZR (under driver's seat) and relocate in front of the radiator like you find on 2009 RZRs.

Please note that you will need a bracket to mount the regulator up in front of the radiator as shown in the 2009 RZR photo above. You can order a bracket from your Polaris dealer - Part # - PL5252587.

New Polaris RZR Baja Front Bumper

Polaris RZR Bumper
Polaris RZR Bumper
This is the new RZR Front Bumper from RZR Tech. This serves as a totally rigid front bumper and brush guard but also as a heavy duty front-upper chassis reinforcement. This bumper fits the standard RZR 08-09' (w/ removal of the front sway bar) and it also fits the RZR S.

The factory didn't give us much protection for the front or rear of teh RZR, or a lot to work with. But we've come up with some excellent solutions that fit well and look great. Bumpers are made from various sizes of DOM tubing in precision production fixtures that allow for easy installation and the best protection available for your baby. They fit tightly to the body, so the size of the vehicle doesn't change much and there's nothing protruding. These bumpers have already proven to pay for themselves in an accident. Don't find out the hard way.

For installation, you will need to drill four 3/8" holes in the dash bar for the provided hardware to fasten the chassis stiffener to the frame. Besides this, the kit is all bolt together. There is no plastic cutting needed.

Price is $425 w/ Red, Black (or new) Sparkle Silver powdercoat. Price includes installation hardware.

Jagged X RANGER RZR Wins Best in the Desert's Bilek Silver State 300

Jagged X RANGER RZR Wins Best in the Desert's Bilek Silver State 300

Jagged X RANGER RZR Wins Best in the Desert's Bilek Silver State 300
The Jagged X/Polaris Racing number 1919 team was able to pull off another win at the Bilek Silver State 300, in Mesquite Nevada. Jagged X started in second place with a smaller-than-usual field of only five vehicles.

The Mesquite venue was billed as a new race course but the drivers soon discovered that Casey from “Best in the Desert” still had plenty of tricks up his sleeve. Co driver, Blake Van de Loo noted that the course had, "The most silt ever but also was loaded with a huge variety of terrain from 7000 ft pine forest to a trip through the old mining town of Caliente, Nevada, and even some pretty deep water crossings.”

The Jagged X RANGER RZR moved into the lead shortly after the start when the lead car encountered engine trouble. A little more than nine hours later, Brandon and Blake crossed the finish unchallenged to score their third season victory and to further secure the lead spot in the 2008 BITD points chase.

The next BITD race is the Golden West 150 (formerly the AVI 150), in Jean, Nevada, on Oct 25. This is a Quad, Side-by-Side and trophy lite only race and promises to be an exciting event.
