That a shame that you have to pay out the ass for something that you have to modify just to feel safe to ride in.a lot of people are getting hurt in these in roll overs,especially front rolls.and the arctic cat wildcat I would not leave the house before I redone the top on that thing,it's even worst IMO.hope they start looking at these sxs tops now like we did after bill rolled his buggy.

for the record that handsome fella in the pic is not me, as a matter of fact i don't know who he is but he was kind enough to drive my truck, trailer and buggy home (1hr 45min) and leave it in my driveway. i never did get to thank him.
that pic sure got me to rethink and rebuild my cage!!!!!!!

Flipped back and landed on the front hoop from what I heard. Lot of weight in a 4 seater.

end over end roll.....front end went straight up and over.
the berrian 4105 frame really is a sand car frame in my opinion. i'm sure the weight factor had a lot to do with it also

No dought the stock SxS Roll cages suck. The best one I have seen so far is on the Commander and even it is a two piece bolt together design. At least it has some triangulation and is 2" tubing. :roll:
