I am torn between a G1 which I am very familiar with, and a G2.
The G1 is so easy to take apart, accessing things are easy, I have owned several and know them inside and out, and they are cheaper at this point!
The G2 appears to ride smoother, has bigger engines available, has XMR snorkel kits available for both the outlander and renegade, but is harder to access things, heavier, more expensive (due to being newer).
Then there is the G2 1000R option, and is there enough noticeable difference in the 7 extra HP?
My buddy had a nice used 2013 1000 Outlander 1000 and a 2010 Renegade 800. The renegade would walk away from the outlander every time, and never catch up. So I wonder if I should stick with an 800 Rene……but then I wonder how a 1000 Rene would have faired in that same race?
No I dont go out and do top speed runs all day, but I will likely run 28" tires and be in the water and want max power.
That said, my brother has a nice 07 Renegade 800 I can buy for like $3600…..Ive found nice 09-10 renegades for 5kish, and have 2 renegade 1000’s located for $6200ish. A new renegade 1000R will run me probably $11K at least just guessing for a base model.
I was just hoping there would be more reviews by now comparing the old to the new, as well as the Polaris 88hp offerings vs Can Am!
