I think your absolutely right, it should out perform the Polaris 400/500, and the warrior. This quad is most likely going to be a GREAT quad for alot of people . As long as you are talking apples to apples the Kawi is going to set the bar alot higher.

It will have to contend with the main problem of the polaris sport bikes, weight. Imagine trying to fight a 509 lb bike around all day at high speeds.

The weight isn't so bad, I had rather fight a beast around at high speed than a lightwieght quad that can't reach high speed. The need for speed overules all other problems, anyway I ride my P-650 harder than most people ride their sport quads. I agree this will not be a quad for weaker people, but since I'm not in the weaker crowd at 235 and 6'3, BRING IT ON !!!

If you want my oppinion, I love it. However, the ragazines (read Hi-torque) will hate it for the simple fact that it does have an automatic tranny on it. That and the fact that it is a bit more portly than the DS650 Baja. Please don't get me wrong, I really like it, it just may be my next quad (especially in the orange color), but the Rags are going to hate it. But then I never listened to those idiots anyway. Those things should do really well in the US and UM classes in the GNCC.

DON'T MOCK THE AUTO TRAN. THIS WAY YOU'LL SPEND LESS TIME SHIFTING AND MORE TIME LOOKING BACK TO SEE WHERE YOUR BUD'S ARE.

I think they should come out with a 4by version, nothing rails the high speed corners like a 4X4. Also if you ask a lot of people if they even use their racks they'd say no! i know i rarely do, if i need them dad or someone else has them. One complaint is the front end............don't quite know what to think right now.
