Kawasaki Ridge Limited ride through the Necedah Wildlife Refuge.

Hey everyone! New member here. Just bought my Ridge Limited in late December. Nothing challenging or fancy here; just took a ride the other day through the Necedah Wildlife Refuge. It was nice having the heated cab but I did get a little sweaty at times...

Auto car washes really test for leaks, was the small amount that shot in past the door pillar the only place?

I was wondering how well the door seals would work. I thought it held up pretty well with the high pressure car wash. That one spot by the door pillar was where the most water came in. Otherwise, maybe a few drops in other places. I wouldn't expect it to be sealed as tight as an automobile door. The first ride I took it on, it was raining pretty hard and after about a half hour there were a few drips coming in from the top of the windshield but not enough to bother me.

I have owned numerous different brands UTVs with cabs, what I saw in your video is less leakage compared than most. Like you said, it is not a car.
