With the capabilities of this new XP 900 Polaris
knew a high performance electrical system would
be required, so the stator is capable of producing
an industry leading 750 watts of power at 5000
rpm and 500 watts at idle. Polaris has also redesigned
the head lights to utilize high performance low
wattage LED bulbs that feature a high and low
beam setting, which provide a more natural white
light for improved visibility after dark
Polaris also obviously made ease of maintenance
a priority on the RZR XP 900 compared to previous
RZR models. The oil level and the air filter
are easily accessible through an access panel
in the rear bed. The CVT and engine air inlets
are also located high up in the chassis and
provide good water protection. Air filtration
is provide by a large flat panel paper media
filter that has 90 percent more surface area
