I have some buddies that were looking at the a/c 650. They both said that in the corners the front end would push pretty bad. I like the grizzly but have never rode the 650 a/c. Also, the grizz is a 660.

If you can, ride them both and let us now which one you go with.

The Arctic Cat is also the Kawasaki Engine so maybe check on the kawasaki specs as well .I know that thru experience the Kawasaki or (Arctic Cat )has an excellent engine braking system. This thing will go down a very steep hill without using much brakes at all. The power on both are excellent.. They both have pros and cons .... You have a tough decision to make.... Let us know how ya did.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Grizzlys are junk, I have a friend who had to replace every CV axel in it. He traded it for a Rincon. I was a Grizzley get stuck in a mud hole up north and fried a belt trying to get out. I know three or four people with arctic cats but no one with a cat 650. The guys with the cats like them and don't have too many problems compared to the guys with the Polaris's. If you want a trouble free machine get a Rincon or Jap machine without a belt tranny.

I don't know much about the AC? But the Gizz. is a great atv! I have worked it hauling logs, and deep mudding it, never a problem! You made a good choice! Happy trails!
