“I understand their position, but thought they would have built something a little closer to both sides of the industry. At least put something in it other than that tired Raptor motor … very disappointed.”
“The sport market is dead. If you guys actually saw the market shares you would see for yourselves that, yeah, they are cool, but aren’t huge sellers. I would take this same power plant that is reliable over any Polaris any day … I am disappointed they didn’t come out with a bigger [engine], but that is the only downside to this machine.”
i'm not saying i want a bigger engine, im saying it's what the people disappointed with the viking that left those comments said. it actually seems like the viking isn't just aimed at the utility market but also for recreation riding, hunting, etc.Why do you want a bigger engine so bad? Is it for extra towing capacity, or just to go faster?
With Yamaha aiming more at the utility side of the market, the speed probably doesn't matter as much to them.
Would a bigger engine even translate into higher towing capacity?
