Browsing the internet looking at utvs and came across this brand. BMX. Never heard of it before but seemed like it was pretty neat. Liked all the options on it, but I just kinda wonder why it is so much cheaper than all the other name brand utvs like polaris, yamaha, and kawasaki. Heres a pic of it  and the web link: http://www.bmxpowersports.com/store/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=BPS&Category_Code=UTVSAlso when i tried to click on their warranty info and contact info an error came up and wouldn't let me view these pages. That kinda bothered me too. Has anyone seen or heard anything about these utvs good or bad?

They are really not that much cheaper when you compare what you are getting. Alot of the models in the link you posted are 2wd and have only 300cc motors.
My biggest concern with off brand any thing is there aren't near as many dealers which can make it tricky when you need parts or service.

I am speaking from experience! Stay away from all knock off brands.

Here at the school, the grounds/maintenance department bought 3 single cabs last year. They all have about 650 hours on the clock and have yet to have any issues. 300 cc 2 wheel drive and just use them to run around campus all day. These all came with a winch, electric dump bed, windshield with wiper and rear 2 inch reciever hitch. Also have brake lights, blinkers and external mirrors for street use. Cheap built and about as uncomfortable as you can imagine, but have yet to have any issues with them. I don't think they would last being used and hunted out of much but might be ok cruising around the farm.

Speaking from experience...stay away from anything thats not common. I bought a Qlink from Steel Horse, in Lufkin Texas and it was total HELL!! They gave us a great sales pitch and garunteed the thing for a year. After 22 trips to their shop we finally won our Lemon Law that we filed with the state. The owner of the company himself, after all the fighting back and forth said "You get what You pay for!!!" . Let me remind you that this was the same man that sold us the POS unit! If they do not have a company name that is a reputable company....DONT BUY IT!!! We are proud owners of a new 400 Can-Am, Outlander and a Prarie 360, Kawasaki, bought from Lufkin Power Sport. Knock on wood!!! they have never let us down and have never been in the shop!! They stand up to their name, one we see everyday!! Great unit, great company and we didnt need a sales pitch...they sold themselves!!!!
