well if you want to slide like a sport dont get a quad with IRS

 

Prairie 700!! True, if you like power sliding, IRS isn't for you. We race the Prairie (ours is a 650) and it's a BEAST!!!!! The prairie won the 12-hour race for the last two years. My husband's team rode a new 700 in the race this year and it had NO problems! Ours has 1000 miles on it, has had nothing wrong with it, has incredible power, and is awesome for racing or riding fast if you choose to. Top speed on ours is 65mph, it wheelies in high or low gear, it takes a LOT of abuse, the suspension is great! You can look at my photo page and see that the suspension is great, or we wouldn't be able to clear that huge table top. The only thing we've done to it is put the clutch spring in and different tires on it (all listed in signature). I would have a hard time believing you wouldn't be happy with it.

Good luck with shopping around, though, try to ride them all if you can.

 

I have a Rincon. Great machine, great handling, great suspension, plenty of power, and great fuel economy. A really comfortable ride on the trails. Sucks to have no engine braking for crawling along though. It's not fun going down steep trails where you really need to crawl along, you are all over the brakes. I think it is very unsafe, even if you are a good experienced rider. For riding normal trails and logging roads, the engine breaking is really good. I really like having the ESP. You can either ride it in automatic so no shifting, or put it in ESP and change gears if you need to. ESP work really well. If you don't need serious engine braking, the Rinny is a great trail machine. Unfortunately, I need it. If I could trade mine in, I would do it in a minute for the Rubicon or the Vinson.

Good Luck
