These 2.0 Podium QS3 shocks run $1195 a pair for single rate springs and $1295 a pair for dual rate springs according to FOX website. I can't imagine them being much les through Honda so for a set of 4 you are looking at $2390.00 + tax etc.

I paid $1029 delivered to AK for the WE front shocks. The rears would be the same. A little cheaper, but I'm not replacing the levelers yet.

That's the price plus tax. Out of state guys pay the price that's listed no other fees. That's in Mississippi

"I think I'll keep mine" just about sums it up. I would rather have my model than this LE one, if nothing else to keep my drive train. I'm sure for the price difference I could buy the shocks for mine. Ugly wheels as usual that I'd hate to have to pay extra for... and i'd be out there spraying the a-arms with black rustoleum lol. There are pros and cons to both Polaris and Honda, but I'll tell ya right now if I wasn't so freaking brand loyal I'd already own one of those generals.

I really just don't get why it is so hard for one of the brands to just look at what's out there and piece together the best of the best and make a truly good machine without any sacrifices. For example on ours the sacrifice for having the best drive train on the market is this crappy clutch design that doesn't let the engine get up in the power when in the thick mud or on a steep hill. Can't they just put like a more traditional automotive style torque convertor deal in it?

I am guessing they made the new dash more air tight.
I wonder what they did to address the air intake to make it more water resistant?

It will be interesting to compare the intake to see if they acknowledged the problem!

The 2016 model has the best differential. Lock means lock!! I have those same cup holders in all my 4 doors from Honda off of Ebay.

I agree. I like "lock means lock" that was my favorite thing when I went to the 700

In that case the base MSRP on these LE models must be 20-22k, right? Maybe more?

Honestly, who would pay that over a RZR or Maverick with those options?

I doubt it but let's hope. It'd sure be nice if someone didn't have to f*** with that off the bat

I guess I'm blind. I got the deluxe model and my headlights look just like the 17 model. Am I wrong??

I still haven't fixed the dust issue from the dash. Just sucking it up... lol
