Side mirror without window nets:
 If you aren't running window nets and looking for the ultimate side mirror for your Speed UTV, look no further than our Cuero Race side mirrors paired with LP4 light mounts. This dynamic combination not only offers robust and durable side mirrors but also provides an incredible 20,000 Lumens of light output, illuminating your off-road adventures like never before.
What sets this setup apart is its versatility. Mounting it in our preferred location on the A+ Pillar is a breeze, requiring the use of our 1.50" clamp option. Alternatively, if you prefer the A-Pillar location, our 1.75" clamp option ensures a secure fit. Through extensive testing, we've discovered that installing the side mirror on the A+ Pillar significantly enhances mirror visibility, making it our preferred mounting location.

The Perfect Center Mirror: 
When it comes to enhancing your Speed UTV experience, our 16" Super Deluxe Center mirror is the ultimate choice. While the Super Deluxe 11" center mirror will fit, we've chosen the 16" variant to take full advantage of the Speed's low tire mount and open rear view. With its wide field of vision, this mirror provides perfect rear visibility, elevating your off-road adventures.
For the ideal Speed UTV Center Mirror setup, pair it with our 1.75" C-clamps. This combination creates the perfect solution, ensuring your mirror stays securely in place without having to struggle with removing the roof. Drive confidently with the Super Deluxe 16" Center Mirror, designed to provide unmatched clarity and safety for your Speed UTV.

Added Storage:
 If you've chosen not to opt for the second screen in your Speed UTV, you're left with an open space on the glovebox door. We saw this as an opportunity and designed a glovebox bag to make the most of that extra space. Our glovebox bag is the perfect solution for keeping your personal belongings organized and easily accessible during your off-road adventures.

Adding Light:
When it comes to off-roading, having reliable lighting is essential. As many of you know, we're big fans of Baja Designs lights for their exceptional performance and quality. We've gone the extra mile to create a mounting solution that allows you to install the OnX6+ 50" Arc light bar on top and the OnX6+ 20" light bar on the bumper of your Speed UTV. We're also excited to introduce our new S2 chase light mount, available in 3 light or 5 light options. This addition further enhances safety, providing additional lighting options to make you more visible at night or out in the dust.

Added comfort and Visibility: 
When you take the driver's seat in your Speed El Jefe, you're met with a sense of security. You sit down into the car with plenty of head room and space between you and your passengers. However, we felt the need for a better line of sight over the front of the car. To address this, we've developed an adjustable seat riser that securely bolts to the factory location, accommodating both factory and wide-size Speed seats.
Our seat base provides an additional 2" of height over the stock configuration, ensuring superior visibility and driving comfort while maneuvering your Speed El Jefe elevating your driving experience.

 Speed Eats Whoops for lunch:

The more I drive the Speed UTV, the more I fall in love with it. Part of gaining confidence is taking it to familiar terrain in my own backyard, pushing the vehicle to its limits. The deep whoop section featured in the video is a true testament to the vehicle's capabilities. While I can't predict how long a stock car or even a race UTV would endure at 40+ mph on a 10-mile stretch like this, we bought this car to drive it, and we're thrilled to showcase it in stunning 4K at 120FPS.

 

 

The 4-Seat SXS Shootout: Putting the Top 3 4-Seat SxS Vehicles to the Test

We are always striving to be leaders in the industry and we think that this video is a game changer! We're thrilled to turn the concept of a motocross-style shootout into a reality, thanks to Coyne Powersports. Our mission was to conduct a fair comparison of the leading contenders in the 4-seat SxS market. We subjected them to a series of rigorous tests to evaluate performance and provide unbiased ratings. With four seasoned test drivers at the helm, we selected the challenging and rugged terrain of Plaster City as our proving ground.

The El Jefe Get's a New Pair of Shoes: Obor RocScraper Tires

DISCLAIMER: This video is a paid promotion, and free products were sent for review purposes. However, it's important to note that these considerations did not influence the results or feedback regarding the tires used.

Introducing the Obor RocScraper tires, available in robust 32, 35, and now 37-inch sizes. While originally designed for hardcore rock crawling, these tires have proven their versatility across a spectrum of Utah's challenging terrains. Rumor has it they last for over 2,500 miles and become even better with time as they break in. Our experience with these tires in Sand Hollow, Utah, left us thoroughly impressed, and they've earned a permanent spot on our off-roading adventures.

 

 

Speed Goes to Baja:

The Speed UTV crossed the 1,000-mile mark at the culmination of this unforgettable journey. Join us as we recount the incredible experience.

A massive shoutout to FredRZR for extending the invite to his #ProRandFriends ride. Our route featured a mix of new and iconic stops, including the renowned Horsepower Ranch.

 

 

The Speed goes to Camp RZR: Unleashing the Speed UTV

The much-anticipated desert season has made its triumphant return, and there's no place we'd rather be than Glamis. After a prolonged wait, the killer weather is a welcome sight, and we're thrilled to hit the dunes with the Speed UTV and the new Pro R. It's a stark contrast to last week's Sand Hollow adventure, but the fun factor remains sky-high.

 

 

Highs and Lows in Glamis:

In the world of off-roading, dune trips can bring unexpected trials. Wet sand added an extra layer of stress for all of the machines. The key takeaway? Our adventures remained safe and manageable, as any breakdowns happened in conveniently accessible spots.
