I'll put all the mods you have on your pioneer to make it go as fast as you brag about and then see if your pioneer can catch my KRX. There are post of KRX outrunning other vehicles you mention online as well. Depends on the course and driver. If its a flat out drag race, then everyone with an X3 should pound their chest because the rest of the sxs are just slow.
I'm not bad mouthing the rig at all. I love it. My point was I dont considered it a true sport. Just like I dont consider a Polaris scrambler a true sport. A true sport is basically a 1 trick pony. A Krx can do it all.

I agree. I’ve made references from the same thing and maybe misunderstood. Wasn’t meaning bad either. It’s in between a bit.

Makes since, kinda reminds me of the Uni Link suspension on the first dirt bikes that had them thinking. Kawasaki has been sitting back watching all the blunders of the other MGF's and trumped them in the suspension department. I had a new Kawasaki250 KDX Enduro back in the day, motor wasn't fast in drag races, but with a little tweaking of the suspension ( oil viscosities ) thing would fly in the woods. I had several woods bikes, I was fastest on the Kawi.

Some how it is ironic that the slowest sport machine is the one set up the best for speed lol

You wanting to know what the biggest tire you can use is?
Your going to end up with a tire person that can discuss carcass construction all day long.
But do you really need to understand how adding a chafer will impact tact time and cost? 😜

I might find out real quick that i am not as interested in learning about tires as i think lol

there is just so many different tread patterns out there I would be interested in knowing what characteristics are important for what element or terrain type - Granted in can pretty much all be boiled down to Hard pack, Loose, Mud or AT but there are different characteristics of tires and well I just be interested in learning about...

I must have looked at 20 different tires/treads before I bought my Terrabites. I wish there was a good database to base tire choice off of, but one person thinks their brand new street tires are top notch in the one 4" mud hole they went through in 4WD so they tell everyone on FB. If people were honest about tire performance it would be great for all of us, but reality is most won't tell you their $700-$1000 investment sucks.
