    I really a need a honest opinion on the no power steering! I’m about to buy one. I need a detailed answer.
    Is it worth the money for the bike to not have power steering? And what’s it feel like in the mud

    • @StarbuckJames
      @StarbuckJames  Před 5 lety +2

      I honestly have had zero issues without power steering. When i'm rolling very slow I imagine it would be easier with power steering. However you can imagine in mud or a soft terrain its not an issue. especially in 4 wheel when the front tires are spinning its very easy. In fact most power steering bikes the faster you go the less the power steering actually kicks in. Ive never tried one with power steering though, so thats why the decision was a little easier to make. Hope that helps!

    • @lucasmassey7889
      @lucasmassey7889 Před 4 lety

      Sir Douglas I got the 1000, and the Power Steering doesn’t even really feel like it’s on when you’re in the mud. But when you’re just riding the trails between mud, it’s super smooth, and the power steering is always at max as they don’t have the Dynamic Power Steering like Can-Am does.

    • @lucasmassey7889
      @lucasmassey7889 Před 4 lety +1

      Sir Douglas at 50 MPH it’s running 7200 RPM, or somewhere around that, bigger tires will give you a little higher top speed, but then you start running into axle issues, and with a 2” lift, to run 31s, you have to have a 1” spacer in the rear if keeping stock rims.

      Sir Douglas not to mention it’s pretty badly placed, I was riding with a couple buddies, and then all of a sudden the bike is a hell of a lot higher pitched, so I stop, and like a normal person for some reason stuck my finger up the exhaust and couldn’t even get my pinky in it, so I took out my pocket knife and cleaned it out, and she sounded normal. But had I not payed attention to it, it could’ve closed up completely and got too much back pressure on the engine, and destroyed it, but... these bikes are for really experienced drivers, so...
