Default Anyone Ridden an '09 Outlaw 525 IRS?

How do the IRS sport quads ride compared to a utility 4x4 with IRS? I've never had a chance to ride a IRS sport quad but it seems like the kind of quad I'd like. Polaris has my money when they make a Polaris Outlaw 525 IRS 4x4 (fully manual still).

From what little experience I'v had with them they are pretty nice machines thoe you they still cant be compared to utility as they still ride stiff in comparison. But still softer than a SRA. There biggest advantage is the ground clearance they have.

Don't forget you also have the Honda EFI 700XX that is also a IRS sport fully manual.

Looking for a trail quad with some ***** eh? Yeah they are ok. If you want something good for tracks(jumping) go with the 450. The IRS will pogo you and can be dangerous. Looking for trails, the IRS 525 would be fine.

But I have heard bad things about the IRS and if you jump and land on the back right, it will pogo you up and can flip very easily(so I've heard coming directly from the salesman when my buddy went in and picked up the Outlaw 450).

Never heard anything else though.

Actually dirt wheels(my other Bible) expects the honda xx,raptor 700,and outlaw to go 4x4 but just think of the weight issues.

That will be the day sales of those quads will drop tremendously..... that is of course if they are ONLY available in 4x4..... Would be a very dumb mistake.

Dirt Wheels speculates a lot, though I do like the mag! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
