I have 35" inseam and I ride with a prosthetic left leg. I really want a Talon. Has anyone cut out the dead pedal or otherwise modified one for more leg room?
I have raised my Drivers seat 2" and back a little. That helped with leg room & also raised line of sight when looking thru Superatv Flip Windshield. I used 1.5" x 2" x 1/8" Aluminum Tubing

36" inseam here too. I raised my driver seat 1.25 inches and moved it back 1.25 inches and it made a big difference. Modifying the dead pedal would entail pushing it out into the wheel well. I think it would work on an R to an extent but probably limit the tire size due to clearance issue when turning left. Probably not work on an X, the tire is already a few inches further back and moving the dead pedal would decrease that clearance (inch for inch because the top of the dead pedal is flush with this inside of the wheel well)...
R Clearance. The short arrows show what would happen if you pushed the dead pedal out...
And the X is a little closer to begin with so not much to play with...
My main issue is the prosthetic is bent at a 90* angle and the silicone liner and the sleeve that rolls up my leg and over the knee almost to my crotch to hold the leg on also put pressure on my kneecap. The kneecap eventually becomes a "hot spot" and I have to take it off. In my car I have room to extend my leg to the right of the dead pedal and straighten it out a bit to relieve some of the pressure. If I could move the brake pedal to the right a bit and allow me to stretch my leg out and not use the dead pedal, it would work better. The only ones that give me room to not use the dead pedal that I have found are a couple of current Can Ams and I would rather buy the Honda.
Thank you for your thoughts and illustration. Could you post pics of how you modded the seat?
Now that all the details have dropped on both models (which aren't far off from eachother) what is your level of fun factor directing you to, the 1000R or 1000X? Starting this thread off, after watching initial reviews the 1000x look good enough to me, and upfitting is possible if it comes down...
Anyone have issues when driving at speeds between 8-20mph; not very smooth at speeds between 8-15; tried going to low, but too high for low and its was much more jumpy. I went to paddle shifters but still had some jumping back and forth in that range, any insight on how to make it a little more...
Has anyone gone from a rzr xp1000 to a talon r? I would like to here some real world testimony about the pros and cons of both. I currently have a xp1000 and thinking about getting a talon r.
How does the ride compare, turning radius and front diff?
Thanks
So we took our shiny new blue Talon X out for the second time this weekend. It now has about 240 miles on the odometer. Below are my impressions... keeping in mind I come from a SXS history of a 2012 RZR 900 XP and currently a 2018 RZR 900 Trail along with the 2019 Talon X.
First off, I really...
