Default Most nimble ATV

After the winter I'm getting a 700cc+ machine. I will be using this mostly for trail riding and want something sporty. Which of these monsters do you think handle the best? I'm thinking of KQ but want to hear what everyone else thinks.

I would think nimble and 700cc plus displacement are mutually exclusive. The two wheel drives will handle much lighter than a 4x4. Doesnt leave many choices, ds650 or kawi vforce.

I'm thinking KQ too. The problems I see with the Polaris Sportsman 800 is:

1. To heavy
2. Wide Seat
3. Cost
4. Shifter

eggzactly. the sportsman 800 is way too large to be considerderd nimble. nice machine but very very big.
I also would have to agree that the kq is the most nimble 700.

I would also have to say the wolverine is the most nimble 4x4, its light and i can attest to its good handling.
