Default Sport/ute or sport

Hi I am going to buy a new quad in the next month or so and I am wonder ing what to get, sport or sport/utility I have quite a bit of riding experience on all different kind of quads. I ride mostly in wide open fields trails hills sonme snow a just a tiny bit of mud. I am a bigger guy 6'3'' 185 lbs. If I get utility it will be an Bombardier Outlander 400 4x4 . If I get a sport quad it will be a KFX 400. The outlander has a nicer ride and 4x4 and it might be better for just cruising around but I like to ride fast so I am leaning toward the Kawi. Also I don't thimk there is alot of hopup parts for the outlander. I would appriciate your input. Thanks

If traction is not an issue, you are going to have way more fun on the KFX. Saskatchewan is dry, open country, so unless you have to deal with big snow, you might get by with the sport bike.

haven't rode the bomb, but own a z and let me tell you, it is a great bike, i had a warrior before the z. the z is the same as the kfx,(just in case u didn't know). i am looking forward to some snow to ride in this winter. if you want to go fast and have some fun this would be a good choice. if you can, test ride one and see that it fits you good. hope this helped you out, good luck
later sparx

i wouldnt get a s/u cause they dont really have that much sport in them cause they are all heavy, have racks, and like the wolverine are full time 4x4. It depends if ur going to do mostly recreational riding then get a sport but if u have work to do or hunt or somethin then get a utility.
