I’ve been looking thru the threads to find something like this, but wasn’t too successful… So, I thought I would just pose the question I have and wanted answered…
Can you list the MAJOR differences between the two and tell me your opinion why one is a better choice than the other. One thing I’ve been reading is that there is a lot of beefed up drive train components on the turbo. I believe the XP1K could definitely use these beefed up components as well and can’t understand why Polaris wouldn’t use them on the XP1K in the first place, but rather wait until they put out the much more powerful turbo….

I took delivery Thursday of last week and took the machine on a large ride this weekend. I had a 2014 1000XP and put 3400 miles on it. Right off from the start i was easy on it following the break in methods Polaris recommends. So as the day wore on and i finally got 30 miles on it i started to step into it a little more with no feel from the turbo. Honestly it felt like my 14 with 105HP. After 50 miles on it Saturday night i started wide open throttle runs, no boost and we never heard the blow off valve working. The Blow off valve will move when i pull on it so the spring feels fine. We just pulled it into the shop and all clamps are tight. Any ideas?
I was hoping to find something simple like a loose clamp etc. If i cant find the issue i will take it back to the dealer.

First impression in the sand is the amazing, plush ride.
Then the peppy response from the engine. The clutching is amazingly perfect, the trans solid. Polaris did an astounding job developing this.
Really holds it’s power and speed up Dumonts Comp Hill, AKA the "Wall".
Cramped legroom and seats are a bit too upright.
No overheat issue, occasional extra cranking restarts but nothing of any real concern. A 30 second idle / waiting for the fan to stop before shutting off a fully warmed up engine cures that.
Handling is much improved over the XP1k. Takes the Salmon Run with ease.
Funny thing you rarely see a Can Am out here, but see plenty of newly released YXZ’s.
At the moment I think the Turbo Rzr out runs them. A few Yamahas have pipes and don’t want to admit they have controllers and a few engine mods adapted from the snowmobile tricks.
They’ll get hole shot up the "Wall" but you blow by them and leave them in the roost at the halfway. The Rzr with a really powerful and faster top end in climbs.
In conversation finding the novelty of the click shift is wearing off fast. You don’t gain anything and I prefer two hands on the steering wheel and a few YXZ owners agree.
I love the Yamaha I ain’t knocking it and think it’ll have a great future.
Comfortable seating but the XYX harsh suspension has to go. Nice stance very stable.
Back to the Turbo Rzr using the 1" FST paddles from our XP1K is working out great, and the Turbo Rzr has good, much better response in backing situations.

Speedometer stopped working and the check engine light is on.Code is 84 (19 & 2)(data erratic or intermittent & speed error). Any ideas? I think I read that RZR’s have had a speed sensor problem. If I ride it like this is it going to hurt anything?
Second thing is when I hold the gas to the floor it it acts like it is cutting out or hitting the rev limiter. Is my belt slipping possibly? I’m going to head out tomorrow and Ill try and take a video if it keeps doing it. I didn’t have anybody to ride with to compare speeds or anything. Put some new tires on tonight, 150 miles on the machine if that helps.
