- We traveled to hilly, rocky, and technical Brimstone Off-Road Park in Huntsville, Tennessee to put the new S 1000 to the test in the final day leading up to Camp RZR, held Sept 18th and the 19th. CT Racing Engine’s owner, Allen Knowles, has thousands of miles driving the latest high-performance UTVs in the dunes, desert, and mountain trails, making him an ideal test driver.
In 2015, Polaris replaced the aging RZR S 800 with the all-new RZR S 900. The car boasted increased suspension travel, a longer wheelbase, 75HP high--performance Pro Star engine, and styling that matched the look of the RZR XP 1000. For 2016, Polaris has upped the ante for the wide trail rider by adding a slightly revised version of their Pro Star 1000 engine to the RZR S, providing a whopping 33% increase in power to one of the best handling chassis on the market.
For 50” wide ATV trails, Polaris still offers 50” wide RZR models. For hard core dune and desert whoop pounding, the XP 1000 has the suspension travel and dimensions you’ll want. This leaves the RZR S models to serve the needs of the rest of us. Based on our brief encounter with the car, the 2016 RZR S 1000 is sure to be a hit. Its handling is stable, accurate, and agile. Now, with the 100 HP Pro Star engine on-board, it has the romping stomping low-end power that is missing from the Pro-Star 900 engine found in the S 900. The biggest problem we can see with the RZR S 1000 is being upside down on a 2015 S 900 and unable to make the upgrade. Polaris has another winner on their hands with the 2016 RZR S 1000.

This guy in the video is great! Everything he said was on point about what machine works best and how.. plus at the end the jokes were great! :D
I just bought this exact same Rzr Polaris 1000 for desert trails up in New Mexico. And it is great. I am still breaking it in, but I can tell it's going to fit me well. I will post a video up soon. Clean air, clean oil certainly noted. 👍🌵🚤 HipYahhhh!!!
+Sin-Dee Atom Congrats on the purchase. Keep us posted.
👍👍
Power aside, does the long travel suspension on the XP help more in rough trails shown in video? I cant find an xp in my budget and was wondering if the S suspension is just as good for that terrain?
how tough r roll cages for trail mainley and 1 time dumes every 4 years
...black ones a beauty!!
+Izom Agreed.
going to wait a few more years love this machine but my 900xp orange madness with the clutch kit and duel loony tune exhaust is plenty fast for now
+truth islost Enjoy it!
can you guys do the general 1000 rzr i would love it
We absolutely want to test a 2017 General 1000. We also want to to do a General 1000 VS RZR S 1000 performance comparison to see how the General stacks up with its added versatility. Please subscribe so you don't miss it!
you can install a turbo kit in the s1000 to make it go faster.
you don't necessarily need a ton of power for trails. a rzr 800 or rhino 700 is plenty for trail riding
What’s the opinion on this (rzr 1000s) versus a Can-am Maverick Sport 1000r?
How ironic, we have a Maverick sport test dropping later this week. We probably cover a lot of your questions there. Check it out and hit us back with any specifics you may have. Should be out Wednesday or Thursday night.
UTVonDemand Thanks, that’s awesome! Can’t wait to check it out!
Rzr 1000 xp torbo s. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I don't understand why such machines are not well protected against the sun and the rain... Everything is dirty inside the quad after use... There's no way to protect better the wheels?
Awesome review - I'm going to break out my wallet, tell my wife I need it and....(wait that's not going to work) Need a plan B.
Tell her you will get to spend a lot more time together.
price is 20 690
He loves Polaris huh...
+rhino250r Well, its hard to find a better machine for wide wooded trails.
$18k? Lol
+Imunderpar4win Anything comparable in performance is compatible in price. .
its not a car. quit calling it a car.
We looked the word "car" up in Webster's. Sorry, it looks like the word "car" pretty well fits. Consider this a trigger warning.
it can be a car. DOT turn signals, full windshield, tires and a license tag is all you need.
Well it ain't a bike. I've heard people call it a bike and wanted to slap them.
Jon Hoskins then what is it? Since you’re Einstein’s daughter
It’s not a bike, it’s not a quad. It has the same wheelbase and width as a flat fender jeep. It’s a car.
