6 ft. is getting pretty darn wide for a UTV!

I am definitely concerned about width on the Teryx. Thinking that a +3" - +4" would be good for sport/recreation use. But you'll probably need another kit for racers (assuming the power issue can get sorted out).

So Kawasaki talks about how their front end is designed like the KFX450R with the narrow frame up front for better geometry/travel. I took a look, and I don't really see much, if any difference. Do you?

a 6" kit with 12x7 5+2 wheels and 25x10x12 tires would be about 73-74" wide outside edge to outside edge.

well we all know more travel means extension. I think the $$$ issue also plays here and just like Johnny said,trailer fit is an issue. If building a lt rail its one thing to buy another trailer, but for a dam utv to have to sell even most enclosed trailers is a big step. i say just like the Rhino 3 and 6 to allow for all $$$ aspects and choices.

Im with everyone else. Build a +3 and a +6. That would be the way to go. A Teryx with a +6 kit is gonna be sick as hell!

I say a 4" and a 6", I think it will still fit in most Toyhaulers I need to measure mine again when I get home. I did get lucky the Kawi is 75" tall and my bottom bunk is 76" Thank goodness for the Dovetail
