    the way things are going right now, people can't even get 2022 models, so Lord only knows. I'll reply if I hear anything.

    I still haven't heard anything about new models, I haven't forgotten about it though

    I know this forum isn't so active anymore, most people have gone to facebook. James is going to get this site migrated to another host, maybe that will help .

    James is slammed with work, Rmax sheaves as well as Kawasaki krx and teryx sheaves are selling as fast or faster than he can get the parts and get them milled.

    Looks like I'm picking up an X2 850 soon, hate to part with the Rhino, there's a lot of blood and sweat put into that machine and she's been a good one but don't need 2 sxs's. Going to look at a 2021 X2 in the silver color scheme, about 560 miles and looks to be well taken care of too.

    if you haven't driven an X2, they are the closest thing to a Rhino that Yamaha has made. small size, dump bed, but with a smooth, quiet engine and cvt. I love mine. Of course, I have JBS Eibach suspension springs and JBS clutch which make it ride and perform way better than stock. But even stock they are nice.

    That's why I'm going with the X2, unfortunately for me the guy sold the machine last night so the search continues. I'd buy a new one but there are none up here in Alaska.

    I contacted my dealer a couple of weeks ago about the new X2 they supposedly ordered for me and they told me they haven’t ordered it yet, said Yamaha told them to wait until February, wish they would have told me ahead of time but they didn’t. So I found a 2022 X2 XTR that came with a windshield, chains and a snow plow, machine only had 50 miles on it so it is basically brand new. Pretty stoked and I saved myself $3500 over buying a brand new 2023. I’ve already added a 32” light bar and will eventually add a rear window, side curtains, and brush guard if I can find one that will fit this machine.

    post some photos if you get a chance. I see rmax for sale all the time but rarely see x2 or x4 for sale. sounds like you got a steal
