I have not rode all these bikes, but my friend has a grizzy 660 and it is a blast. We rode it all weekend and got it up close to 75 mph on the highway, and the diff. locker was pretty cool. The bike is really large, and felt pretty big on some of the trails, but the auto tranny was nice. Nice bike. After reading all the posts about the prarie, I want to ride one..

the one i'D VOTE FOR WAS THE ONE THAT MOVED ME THE MOST, & WHEN I got off it I'd turn around for a last look before leaving, that's the one...same thing for a bike or boat..you need to satisfy yourself, not others..

c'master,
<< was just trying to find out what "YALL" think. (you'nses, actually, as it is plural) i am just getting some opions, im not dumb enough to go out and buy something because somebody else thinks its the best!!!!(never said you were..) Im just trying to see what the yall think.>> (well when I did this bought a quad, I had only ridden a beartracker, & found it lacking, so I called a friend of mine I had known for a long time, & asked him about a big bore quad, now bear in mind that I'm really partial to the Yammy Star line of bikes, as that is what I ride.., anyway my friend said that what is said about the prarie is true..& one needs to ride one before they buy anything else, well I did, & the yammy dealer was a little emotionally attached to the grizz on the price, & I couldn't squeeze a ride in, I needed one to put to work,..but the test ride on a little mx track behind the shop was impressive, as probally all of the ones in youe list will be..I'm happy with the prarie, but the only thing I can compare it to is top end on a traxter or quest, (rode with, not on) a beartracker, (not in the same class) and a grizz 600 (once again not in the same class) so my opinions are rather limited..
I have only rode the prarie in your list, so that is what I know, there are others here that like their sportsmans, grizz, rubicon(although really you should have the displacement be similar or it is not a fair comparison, kinda like a 426F against a XR250..)
anyway, my friend was right..Thanks MIKE...
but I still hold true to my previous post...
I'm going out to the shed for another look....
