Still the best choice for handeling and power. The new BF750i is a little bit faster but lacks the handeling. If you are wanting a do it all quad thats 4 wheel drive but handles like a like sport quad (in comparision to the other 4X4 choices) Those three are it. The BF650 will save you a few bucks and except in a drag race will feal about the same as the others and can be just as fast with a mod or two. The P700 took 2nd in the current ATV action shootout, It was still faster than the king but lost do to lack of the inovative feature of EFI. Those three have one more awards and shootouts in the big bore ute catagory than any of them on the market. If you like to powersliding and playing around on a quad the 3 you listed are it. IRS quads are a pain to through around and play on. The prairies/BF650/STP700 are realy still the best all around overall quads that I have ever owned or rode. I sugest you test ride the quads you are interested in then make your choice based on your needs and wants from an ATV. The Prairie chassis just provides a great compromise not found on the others a decent ride quality without the tippyness you get with IRS quads that SRA chassis is what also allows them to be played with like a sport quad. There are realy the most fun to ride quads I have ever had.
I hope this helps. I am not your brand loyialist as you can see there are 5 different brands in my garage right now and there are reasons I chose each brand for each application.
I hope you find the right one for your needs and go have a blast!!!!!!!!!!

They are all the same machine. I went with the Brute Force 650. It has all the updated and refined components of the Praire/stp 700 plus a few exclusives. I definitely like the newer, tougher plasic and the more aggressive look that the Brute Force has to offer and mine runs all day with the Prairies.
This is what Mike Walker(aka newbeatle) had to say about the 650.....
I just looked my 1st one over really good, today, at the dealership ... IMO, that is likely the best layed out Kawi to date... I like the fact that it still has inner fenders, the radiator design & placement are the best so far, the front shock towers have a support under the plastic, that would allow removing the front rack, with out weakening the shock towers... it has the 700 clutches & belt... it doesn't have the worthless 700 Brute storage compartments, & retains everything I liked in the back end of the Prairies...this thing IMO, is much more conductive to competition, of all kinds, than even the 700 Prairie... If I were buying a quad right now, the 650 Brute would be the machine, & since I plan on buying one, in late summer ( for momma ), & to compete in the 12 hours race, this will be it, unless Kawi really steps up to the plate for the early '06's... IMO, it's nearly perfect... well it could have a dual A Arm front suspension, instead of the struts, but a set of Works struts would finish off the project, with all the money I'd save over the sticker of any '06 they might come out with...
