I really like my 2015 Uforce 800 but it is really loud, is there anything that will quiet it down? I already put a sound and heat resistant mat on the underside of the plastic console. Any input will be appreciated.

What type of noise? General noise maybe more sound deader between you and the engine. For exhaust noise there are silencer options.

Seems like it is coming from the engine, it is a lot louder than a friend's Polaris Ranger, I know the Polaris engine is more towards the back but the sound is pretty loud, I don't wear a helmet , that would help if I did but don't like to. Where else could I add the sound deadening mat?

Oh, well my Z8 makes all kinds of noises so I found it better to wear a helmet that does cover the ears and not use my silencer. Look to see where the entire panel behind the seats is without deadener and put it in. Not familiar with how the Us are put together there. Also look for things like the heat shroud touching the exhaust or springs. Valves set too loose also makes a lot of noise. Also a better oil makes the noisy transmissions a little quieter. That was one notation that helped sell me on the Castrol Power-1 was people reported quieter and better shifting transmissions...which these sure need.

Will try the Castrol. There seems to be a "chattering" noise, do you think that could be the valves?

Couldn't tell you. Just have to check them. I needed to adjust mine at 300 miles. All were loose enough to make noise except one..
