I was looking at a 2016 recently where the owner was upsidedown and I passed. Wound up buying an older yahama that was like new.

Gen 1 had clutch oiling issues if you ran it slow speed in high. You'd burn up a clutch in about thirty minutes.

I personally took one to nearly well over 10k on stock clutch.

After about 8 recalls, they have:
New clutch design
Better cooling
Better exhaust heat shields
Better in cab heat management
A gas pedal with bushings

The units have the potential to be the best utility side by side made. And in the 1000 class, they're easily there.

The bad, if you don't run the nuts off of it every 10-15x of using it, you'll eat o2 sensors.

I'm looking at a five deluxe right now, the mule pro fx, and the rzr 4.

Leaning Honda for the ride and top speed.

But the mule profx is the better utility bike.

I like the rzr, but my general has had 3k in warranty work in 2k miles. Alternately my yamaha 1000 saw 3 new oil seals in 13k miles So the general has been annoying in that respect.
