Seems price and longevity is the main issues in comments, why not buy a used jeep wrangler or an old Tacoma for the same price if not cheaper? Idk these little vehicles don’t seem worth it when you can buy a used vehicle with more potential
longevity wise it’s amazing i owned one and all the parts on it can be cross referenced to a yamaha rhino i’ve used control arms, axles, shocks, and a lot more stuff and it works and it’s higher quality than the axis stuff
I recently bought a used 2021 Tractor Supply Coleman 550 Outfitter from old man retiring from farming that needed a tune up & minor maintenance, after changing a bad fuel filter and getting rid of some bad gas it finally woke up. It is surprisingly well built & optioned and can really scoot down the Road or pull in 4 Low through anything we have here in Florida. So as a Used Side by Side it was a Amazing Value and Great 4x4
A friend just bought the Axis version. The only real issues are the idle and the shifting....which from what I have read are not uncommon. But, when you pay close to 9k, there should not be that kind of problems. Nice vid.
ive not really had any idle issues, a little cold natured at first but smooths out nicely when warmed up,, but yea mine does tend to shift rough and bind up. hopefully ill post a video of adjusting the shift lever rod to correct that issue.
I used to work for a company that ordered them directly from China. We would have to uncrate them, fix oil leaks and other small issues then hoped they would run long enough to sell. Good news is we learned the issues and the fixes. If a person stays on top of those issues a person could get quite a bit of use out of one.
@@CJE2007.5 good machines, pretty tough in my opinion, just they need regular maintenance schedule. They will do good so long as you stay on top of the maintenance .
I’m not a fan of Chinese made products because China is hostile to the US but your video is awesome and you should be persistent making videos as your character could easily earn some TH-cam income making outdoor videos! Your a real American who is well spoken and we can relate to you and people are looking for real people to watch!
Thank you greatly.. Im learning as i go, what you see is what you get. I agree with you about China being hostile, they always have been,. but i cant afford the 25 grand prices on these name brand SxS, and for the most part these knock off machines perform fairly well, but they do require extra service.
I bought an Axis a year ago….use it on the farm and to hunt……600 miles 70hrs…….shift issues,clutch issues,u joint issues…..other things that are cheap made seats doors cv joints……waiting on a wet clutch kit and tuneup parts now……..IDK….it’s mine so I’ll throw money at it till I’m tire I guess.✌️
Hell you did a good job on the review very thorough thanks and yes you did get a good deal on it cause you probably gonna need the extra money to put back into the machine. Seems like doesn’t matter which one you buy. They all have issues I’m looking at the Massimo 550 or 750
its almost 4 years of running and working it hard, and no mechanical issues of any kind. well, the horn doesnt work, lol. A friend of mine has one older, a couple years older i think and he stays in woods with his. as far as i know he had to replace the drive line, thats the only issue he has had.
I just can’t understand why people leave those bars on the seats. I bought one two weeks ago and as soon as I backed it off the trailer I walked in my shop, grabbed a Phillips head screw driver and removed the four screws to get rid of the crack plunging bars!
Great review! Just stumbled upon your channel. We are thinking about getting one of these. Even more so now. What state are you in? The reason I ask is that your beautiful land looks a lot like ours. Thank you for doing this review.
i live in Kentucky. The eastern part with the hills. i will be posting a new video tonight with much of my land on video during the huge snowfall we just had. very beautiful.
Al the specs Ive seen is two wheel drive / and 4 wheel drive with lockers but no high n low range. Plus reverse. Duh. That was onething I didnt like. We live in the mountains and every rig we have is 4x4 with high n low range.
They are most certainly not anywhere near the quality of a Yamaha rhino lol. There’s a reason why they’re cheaper to buy, but they’re not terrible, but they’re just not the quality of Yamaha. Everything will wear out much much faster than on a Yamaha Rhino but the parts are really cheap for these things and readily available on Amazon or eBay so if you can do your own fixing it’s probably worth it but if not, you’re better off just go and spend the money on a good brand name like Yamaha. One thing nobody factors in is the fact that you still have to sell the machine down the road at some point so you’re never going to get as much as he would for a good brand-name unit. Running good quality oils and changing the fluids lots and just keeping up on the maintenance of it like valve adjustment. Some things like that goes a long way. You don’t need high octane fuel because of the fuel injectors they want you to run high octane fuel because those fuels usually don’t have ethanol in them. It’s the ethanol that destroys everything in these fuel systems. I have an older model and it’s the 700. There’s hardly anything that I haven’t changed on it. Lol but I love driving the thing.
Well, my neighbor has a Rhino and ive rode in it quite a bit, i prefer my Hisun over his Rhino. His Rhino rides like a 1800s buck board. He rode in mine and was amazed at the difference in ride quality.
You shoulda just gone with Nilite. They're indestructable. We've got the big 52" ones on top of our truck cabs ( where they belong for your best spread of light). And you wont hit things.
my rear pod lights are Niilight, but the front 18 inch light is a brand i never heard of before, got it for cheap, but so far its done great. i do have a 40 inch Niilight light bar i got super cheap on a clearance sale, im thinking of mounting it across the front roof line. its a beast of a light bar,lol
Well, they aint no speed demon, but they are utility vehicles and not really meant to be fast. I think max speed is around 45mph in high gear, I have had mine to 40mph.
I havent changed my oil yet, will be doing that soon, and will post a video when i do. from what i understand the oil filter is a bit tricky to remove, but there are after market filters with a nut on the end to fit a socket and ratchet to make removal and installation much easier. I am going to check on that.
Seems price and longevity is the main issues in comments, why not buy a used jeep wrangler or an old Tacoma for the same price if not cheaper? Idk these little vehicles don’t seem worth it when you can buy a used vehicle with more potential
i had it almost 5 years now, and no issues so far, and i do run it hard.
longevity wise it’s amazing i owned one and all the parts on it can be cross referenced to a yamaha rhino i’ve used control arms, axles, shocks, and a lot more stuff and it works and it’s higher quality than the axis stuff
This is definitely on the list this year.. it’s perfect for me. Thanks for the vid
Your welcome. great machines for the $$$

for the $$$ they cant be beat. one piece of advice is to always try and run 91 octane fuel in it. the engines are tuned for 91 octane

yea, i found that out real quick, they require extra attention
What kind of extra attention. Are they money pits or they okay. Im looking at a 2010 hisun 700 SxS later this evening.

Yeah… think about where the parts for the other models come from… you choose 87% chinese… these are 99.9% chinese…. Big whoop

Which model did you get? I just bought a axis X550 from Lowe’s
@@jonphillips1234 2022 500 4x4…..
u can use parts from a
Yamaha rhino and it will be better than the axis quality i own the same model you have i use yamaha parts
@@nkeppy123 your right..thanks!
Very informative !thanks brother. 👍🏼
Thany you
Bro if you run some Seafoam in every tank of gas will GREATLY help your machine.
I have the Hisun 550 it’s an absolute beast one thing I will say is they are super loud wish they would make somet8ng to quiet them a little
Look up The Silencer muffler.They really make things much quieter.
Awesome will for sure look it up it is very loud but it’s a great machine
Yeah, it's a noisey little machine for sure.

Hello can you please make a video of the different RK Performance utv models that are available at Rural King?
I just can’t understand why people leave those bars on the seats. I bought one two weeks ago and as soon as I backed it off the trailer I walked in my shop, grabbed a Phillips head screw driver and removed the four screws to get rid of the crack plunging bars!
yea, they are annoying, i havent removed mine yet, but probably will.
Perfect, thanks!
How close is nearest hinson dealer and what about warranty
Great review! Just stumbled upon your channel. We are thinking about getting one of these. Even more so now. What state are you in? The reason I ask is that your beautiful land looks a lot like ours. Thank you for doing this review.
i live in Kentucky. The eastern part with the hills. i will be posting a new video tonight with much of my land on video during the huge snowfall we just had. very beautiful.
I just bought one and so far so good 😊
Hope you have good luck with it. it seems alot of people are having issues that i have never had with mine.
@@woodz_walker oh well 77 miles it dropped the rear end let's see what the warranty will do
Good rundown of the msu500.
Do you have a link to mikey channel that you mentioned?
just search for Mike Vance. His name is also his youtube name.
Al the specs Ive seen is two wheel drive / and 4 wheel drive with lockers but no high n low range. Plus reverse. Duh. That was onething I didnt like. We live in the mountains and every rig we have is 4x4 with high n low range.
That camo on those will turn purple ish over time in the sun.
it came with the camo wrap
Great video. Good luck with your Utv. Nice price.
Thanks 👍

I just see bears here, lol

jesus bro, the octane is because of compression, not the friggin fuel injector.
yea man, ur a genius. low octane kills injectors. now you know.
@@woodz_walker how, explain it please.
This thing looks almost identical to the 2013 CF MOTO U600 rancher i just got.
yea, they are all pretty similar.
Every video I watch it seems kind of slow. Is it really slow?
Well, they aint no speed demon, but they are utility vehicles and not really meant to be fast. I think max speed is around 45mph in high gear, I have had mine to 40mph.
Hello. Are you interested in testing products? We would like to invite you to test the rear soft windshield for your Hisun 500.
Good Job on the Video
Thank you much
How do you change the oil filter ? Very hard too get at, any idea?
Love my Hisun 500

New sub. Thanks for sharing
Ya shoulda put that light bar where ut goes on the top and it will light the whole area. Dandahermit
i have a 40 inch light bar i got on clearance sale, dirt cheap. im debating on if i will mount it on front roof.
The machines are great. The company stinks and so does the warrantu.
That's a big thumbs up it is a JUNK machine and you can't get parts.
@@fintenhaneyYamaha Rhino parts dude ?
They're all made in the same chinee takee outee factory. Just pick what you like that costs what you can afford. It's all the same.
pretty decent machines for the money. but, they do require serviced quite often tho, more so than the name brands.
Very good video.
thank you
Everything mechanical will break and need repair. Good luck.
so far, so good..i run it fairly hard and use it for towing and hauling, no issues yet and its 4 years old.
I put an exhaust silencer on mine and it really helped with the loudness.
th-cam.com/video/r5ebn5lHB3E/w-d-xo.html
they are a bit loud, im thinking about a silencer in the future.
Worst video ever
lol, why thank ya, glad you didnt enjoy it, and coming from some one with ZERO videos.
