REDLINE PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS INTRODUCES RIOT
SIDE X SIDE AND REVOLT XL SPORT TERRAIN VEHICLES
JULY 30, 2008—Winchester Bay, Ore.—Redline Performance Products today unveiled its new RIOT side x side
and REVOLT XL Sport Terrain Vehicles at DuneFest in Winchester Bay, Ore. The RIOT (referred to as the TS750
during its prototype/testing phase) is the second vehicle in the company’s line of “Sport Terrain Vehicles”—high
performance vehicles designed to handle all terrains.
The RIOT
The Redline RIOT comes equipped with a 749cc, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, 4-cycle, 72 hp engine. This
Weber engine, combined with a CVT and proprietary Redline-engineered gearbox, provides rapid acceleration, with
a top speed of 65 mph. A front suspension with 18” of true travel and a rear suspension with 16.5” of true travel
allows for superb handling and control on any terrain.
The RIOT weighs 1,120 pounds and carries two riders.
RIOT standard safety features include a 5-point harness system, wrist restraints, a quick release steering
wheel, and a tubular space frame, so drivers can safely test their skills while pushing the limits of the machine and
terrain.
“Drivers looking for high performance and safety can either buy a typical UTV and spend a small fortune
on aftermarket upgrades, or they can buy a RIOT and get it all—right out of the box,” said Damon Flippo, West
Coast Sales and Promotion Director for Redline. “And the RIOT comes with a six-month factory warranty.”
The Redline RIOT retails for $17,499 to $19,999 (depending on options) at Redline Authorized Dealers.
The REVOLT XL
Also introduced at DuneFest was the REVOLT XL, a longer version of the single-seat REVOLT.
“Our dealers and customers told us they loved the performance of the REVOLT,” said Steven Campbell,
general manager of Redline, “But they wanted that same all-terrain performance with more legroom and easier
access, which is what they will get with the REVOLT XL.”
Like the REVOLT single-seater and RIOT side x side, the REVOLT XL comes equipped with safety
features including 5-point harness system, wrist restraints, quick-release steering wheel and tubular space frame. It
has a 749cc, fuel-injected, 4-cycle, 72 hp engine that will reach speeds of 60-70 MPH. With a front suspension
having 17” of true travel and a rear suspension with 16.5” of true travel, both the REVOLT and REVOLT XL are
able to handle the bumps and land the big air with ease. The REVOLT XL weights 825 pounds, and retails for
$14,999.
