i ride and own them both. I like them both and to me the biggest difference on the cat is that it is alot less maintenance. Other than that there both great atv's. each one is better than each on certain things but nothing to major. I think anyone would be happy with either or. it kind of depends on what you want in a quad. The two reasons for me going to cat is that I wanted a manual transmission and less maintenance this is for the 500. I cant compare the big bores.

I had a 600 XCR snowmobile and i could never keep it running. My buddy has a 700 SP and has the same problem! Coincidence? Probably, and i like both brands, but like alot more things about AC. Have had Zero problems with it

well i live in roseau minnesota and we used to own polaris and like mentioned we were always tearing into them having to fix everything. we had a 6x6 and i promise when i say this that the only thing we didn't replace at least once was the tranny and when we got rid of it that was getting really weak. so from polaris i went to arctic cat and have had great luck and my parents both bought 450 honda's and we have all been very happy since alot less maintanance. i guess you could say i am extremely satisfied with cat.

I dont know about weez, but i dont have any experience with AC's sport quads, but I wouldnt for a second hesitate on recommending one of AC's utility quads! They are hard to compete with in my opinion

the dvx 400 is the same atv as the suzuki, kawasaki 400 so what ever issues they have the cat will have. As far as I know there isnt any issues with the new ones. the 03 400's had week frames.
