Minneapolis, Oct 20, 2010– A RANGER RZR 4, piloted by Polaris Regional Sales Manager Matt Parks, took first place both days and first overall, in the Pro UTV Class, at the Best In The Desert, Blue Water Desert Challenge this past weekend, in Parker, Arizona. 

The Holz-built RANGER RZR 4, nicknamed the “Baja Bobsled,” worked flawlessly and was victorious over 18 other UTVs, one of the largest UTV entries in premier desert racing in some time. Parks and co-pilot Polaris District Sales Manager Bryce Wernsman endured limited visibility from dust and unbelievably deep silt areas on the track that the RANGER RZR 4 hammered through with no problem. 

“This was our first race for the newly-built race RANGER RZR 4,” said Parks. “The car ran great both days and it was really fast, particularly in the rough. It was a great weekend and a fantastic outcome.” 

The race RANGER RZR 4 was made possible by Walker Evans Racing, Holz Racing Products, Maxxis Tires (zero flats), Mastercraft Safety, Kroyer Racing Engines, Utendorfer Graphics, Muzzys, PURE Polaris Lubricants, the WWCBG, and was supported by the Baja Bobsled Chase Team (Bill Abshier of Valley Cycle Motorsports, Jason Spiess, Todd Douglass, and Danny Flowers).

Golf Cart? Jeep? GSXR? What is it?

Kirk Frith decided that he couldn't just have a golf cart. He couldn't just have a Jeep. And, he couldn't just have a GSXR. So Kirk, being the genius he is, put all three together.

Kirk designed the rear swing arm that carries the engine and articulates in all directions with a watts link and Johnny joint link system. He's using a Ezgo TRX transaxle rear end with reverse. Not only that, but the cart.... er... Jeep... er.... Yeah... Will have independent front suspension, a 6 speed clutch on the floor with a center console shifter all packed in to a Ali aluminum Jeep style body.

Kirk, you better send a video of this thing when it's done!

Family Fabrication - The Punisher

This machine was featured in the July 2010 issue of Dirt Wheels magazine. The Punisher, (appropriate name), was a family affair. John Lawson & son did all of the fabrication work, while his wife Julie did the polishing and bead blasting. (Cool wife!)

This Sportsman 700 was salvaged from a fire. The frame was toasted, no pun intended. As you can see, this family took the time, (along with a few friends), to build such a unique machine. One of the most unique features of this Sportsman, is that it has 4-wheel turning. John made his own spindles for the rears wheels to mount to so that they could turn in the opposite direction of the front wheels. John basically re-engineered the front & rear suspension and drivetrain.

The Lawson family would like to thank our very own Parts Pit Stop leader, Heather. John said, "Heather from Parts Pit Stop is awesome! She was always there helping my wife get the parts we needed!"

We're happy to have been able to help the Lawson's build the Punisher. If you need help building your unique machine, you can visit us at Parts Pit Stop or call us at 866-601-3827.

Fall is here, how about a hoody?

The lifestyle of a motocrosser, snowmobiler, or motorcyclist is one of travel. Road trips are the norm and their many journeys land them in some of the most unique locations on the globe. It’s tough to beat a good road trip with friends and fellow riders. The sites and sounds of the road leave lasting impressions that stay with a rider long after the weekend. Most riders will tell you that more often than not, the best part of the weekend was the time on the road.


Check out our comfortable casual wear in our eBay Store. We've just added a bunch of hoodies and jackets to keep you warm through the fall & winter.

For 2010, Michelin is unveiling the lightest sport motorcycle tire in its category*, the all-new MICHELIN® Power Pure™ tire.

Five years ago, Michelin introduced tires that used different rubber compounds for the crown and the shoulders. This marked the beginning of Two-Compound Technology, which ultimately defined the industry standard for both hypersport and sport touring tires. 

Twenty-one years before launching this revolutionary Two-Compound Technology, Michelin created a sensation with its first radial motorcycle tire. The technology was first used in 1984 for racing – in the GP-500 class – then extended to Michelin’s street tire lineup in 1987.

Descended directly from these revolutionary tires, new MICHELIN Power Pure tires chart a new direction in motorcycle tire design. What’s more, they open new paths in the area of motorcycle handling. How is this possible? MICHELIN Power Pure tires weigh significantly less than their competitors, providing a noticeable benefit to a motorcycle's handling, with outstanding responsiveness and exceptional riding pleasure.

The tires also deliver key benefits in terms of grip and long tread life. Enhanced grip comes from second-generation MICHELIN Two-Compound Technology (2CT), developed specifically for MICHELIN Power Pure tires. The soft layer of rubber on the tire’s shoulders has been extended to provide excellent traction when the bike begins to lean. Long tread life is the hallmark of all MICHELIN tires. MICHELIN Power Pure tires owe their longevity to the thickness of the tread rubber.

Less overall weight but with the same amount of rubber is the result of MICHELIN Light Tire Technology (LTT). Michelin’s latest sport motorcycle tire is a good illustration of Michelin’s strategy, which is never to sacrifice one performance feature for another. This means improving performance in several different areas simultaneously.

Available now at motorcycle dealers, MICHELIN Power Pure tires weigh 2 pounds less per pair than their rivals' comparable tires*, and are the lightest two-compound tires ever approved for road use. The front and rear tires come in two and four different sizes, respectively, to fit a broad range of sportbikes.

Dunlop Sportmax Q2 Wins Tire Comparison

The editors of Ultimate Motorcycling magazine recently assembled the best high-performance sportbike tires in the business for an on-track comparison test, and the Dunlop Sportmax Q2 emerged as the clear winner. Pitted against the Bridgestone Battlax BT-016, Michelin Power Pure and Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa on the demanding, high-speed Willow Springs Raceway, the Sportmax Q2 easily carried the day. The comparison test conclusion said in part, "The Dunlop Sportmax Q2 maintained its line through corners, turned most predictably, handled bumps well, and gave good feedback in all situations. Additionally, the Q2s showed the least wear at the end of the day. The Q2 was a little faster than its closest competitor, an undeniably important statistic for performance tires, but most importantly it was the tire that gave the testers the most confidence. By both subjective and objective standards, the Dunlop Sportmax Q2 is our clear winner." Read the complete article here.
