P500 Any owners over 6'?

[PNWGuy]

Went to go look at a 2018 Pioneer 500 today and was really disappointed in the lack of leg room. I am 6'2" and am not sure I will be able to buy a Pioneer 500 and operate it comfortably.

I sat in a total of five 2018 50" UTVs today and the CF Moto and Arctic Cat Wildcat were physically impossible for me to drive without injuring my knees. The Polaris Rzr was perfect and the Can Am Maverick was very good. The Honda was questionable.

Seems like the Japanese still haven't figured out that Americans are bigger than them...

Any Pioneer owners over 6' that have found their Pioneer not too cramped?

Bad news for you . Pioneer 500 s are not comfy for any one . Try a Volvo

I'm 6'1" or so. @100Acre is approximately 18' tall. He'll be along shortly.

Try the outgoing wolverine. I thought it had plenty of leg room.

I’m 6’2 and have a P5 along with a P1. I have no issues with getting in and seems fine wth the leg room. Never jammed my knees at all on trail @100Acre has ben driving a P5 forever just about every day and he’s like NBA player tall and has no issues.

6’3 and no problems with the P5.

My wife is 6'1" and the P500 is the SxS she picked. She tends to want to get out and stretch every hour or so. I reach all of 5'8" and I don't mind that stretch either to be honest.

Little off topic but, disolvo is Chinese now. But still a funny comment.

I am 6’2 and about 250. No problems here. Everything seems up close and personal at first but you get used to it.

I also came from a rzr 800 and wouldn’t go back.

A Throttle Max helped my leg position, some like some don’t, but it does flip up or down depending on your preference. Here is his good write up from another thread. P500 - Difference between the 2015s and 2018s?

I’m 6’3” and it works just fine. I think the best legroom to be had is the Yamaha Viking and wolverine

 

[jmcampbell54]

I’m 6’2” and 265lbs. It’s not too cramped at all. Easy out/in even in compromised positions on the trails.

I’m 6’2” and don’t have any trouble with my p5.

6-2 260, no issues. Easier to get in and out of than a sport machine.

Bought the Pioneer. Sort of...

Went to the credit union and got the approval and now waiting on the dealer to send the purchase agreement. Then I drop off a pay stub and pick up the machine after they install all the goodies I got included. Can Am would have been over $14k with tax and title. Went to the Rzr forums and lurked. Scared off by the multiple posts of breakdowns and gremlins.

I'm 6'9" and yes it gets a little cramped sometimes but I just open the drivers door and angle my knee and foot out the door which helps a lot. I only do that when riding flat roads and easy to moderate trails. Anything difficult and I keep the door closed. As far as right leg, it's only the dog and I so I can angle my right into her area just fine. Can I get sore after a long day of riding, yes. But the leg room on all the Hondas is about the same for your left leg and foot. The seats could be more comfortable too but at 6'9", I think everything is gonna be tight.

Dude!!! Seriously.........

I'm only 5' 14"...
