Theyre perfect for rough, rocky desert terrain where theRANGER RZR S 800 thrives. Coupled with the new Sachs shocks that have a 2-inch bore providing greater cooling capacity and improved fade resistance for a smoother, more agile ride, the 2011 RANGER RZR S 800 will continue to be the choice of performance-minded, off-road enthusiasts.

2009 Polaris RANGER RZR Line Up
The Most Complete Razor Sharp Performance Line Up
Introduced in 2008, theRANGER RZR took the side-by-side industry by storm as the fastest-accelerating and only trail-capable side-by-side on the market. Built for play first and work second, the RANGER RZR became the most sought-after machine for 2008. For 2009, along with improving the current RANGER RZR, the line up gets even better with the introduction of the new RANGER RZR S.
Our RANGER RZR line up for 2009 appeals to the various types of recreational riders, said Matt Homan, GM of the Polaris Side-by-Side Division. The RANGER RZR offers the only trail capable 50-inch width, perfect for trail riders, hunters and sport riders. The new RANGER RZR S has a top speed of 63 MPH, 60-inch width, long travel suspension and premium performance features on a stock model making it the ultimate, sport side-by-side.
The new RANGER RZR S delivers unmatched performance using an 800 H.O. EFI Polaris twin engine that churns out 55 HP and a 63 MPH top speed for the serious adrenaline junkie.
To complement the screaming speed, the RANGER RZR S features Polaris exclusive, long travel suspension kit that widens the vehicle to 60-inches for aggressive corning and power slides. High performance features such as twelve inches of long-travel suspension, Chrome-Moly upper front A-arms and adjustable Fox® performance shocks with Podium reservoirs not only ensures an awesome ride but is unmatched by the competition.
Along with awesome performance, RANGER RZR S features aggressive styling including custom Turbo Silver paint with race-inspired graphics, fender flairs, a Stealth Black cab with extended cab frame supports and 26-inch Maxxis Big-Horn tires with 12 inch, eight-spoke aluminum rims for an ultra-aggressive look.
With a top speed of 55 MPH the RANGER RZR is still the fastest accelerating side-by-side on the market and the only one with a trail-capable 50-inch width and lowest center of gravity. While RANGER RZR S is built specifically for the sport market who demand long-travel suspensions and aftermarket parts, RANGER RZR is a recreational machine built for the big bore trail rider, hunters and sport side-by-side enthusiasts who need trail capability that only the 50-inch RANGER RZR can provide. With a cargo bed rated for 300 lbs with 12 tie-down points, 1500 lb. towing capacity, under-hood storage and a wide variety of PURE Polaris accessories including a winch, plow mount, cabs and Lock & Ride cargo systems, RANGER RZR is a versatile side-by-side that plays first, works second.
For 2009, RANGER RZR and RANGER RZR S have improved, low-speed drivability due to the inclusion of a heel pocket which allows more controlled operation of the gas pedal. Operators also will find improved transmission shifting, a more durable shoulder bolster, reduced exhaust noise and covered, under-seat storage.
The RZR Sport has a rear anti-sway bar like the normal RZR, but no front anti-sway bar.
Unfortunately, the engine many had hoped would end up in the RZR only made it into the 2009 Sportsman ATV. The 850c twin EFI churns out 70 horsepower. Maybe an early release 2010 RZR?

Air Intake Fix – Looks like the throttle body now has a lip to help keep the boot on. The boot that connects the filter housing to the throttle body has a few bellows that help with flex, and the filter is much larger.
