Looking for advice and comparisons on the referenced ATV's. It will be used for rough terrain trail riding and discing/planting of food plots. Advantages and disadvantages please! Anything else that I should consider? If so, why?

 

The rincon is a trail quad, the Sportsman is a workaholic and mudder. The grizzly is kind of a compromise.

All have irs. The sp is much heavier than the other two. Good for work, not as good for trails. The rincon is underpowered comparitively, the suspension is very soft, but it does have a mechanical trans, even if it is a torque converter. The belt drives on the others are good and hold up well. The grizzly has a tendency to overheat every now and then under heavy loads at low speeds.

The sp will be the best work machine of the group, and still do very good on the trails. The grizz would also be a good choice, but you may have to look into aftermarket cooling solutions. I would omit the rincon, unless you plan on doing mostly trail riding. If work is your primary concern then get the polaris.

 

It will add some to that. The Rincon lacks a low gear which makes it not as much of a work machine as the others. Also, the SP700 is available with EFI which is a very nice feature.

 

It's sounding more and more like the SP 700 is the best choice. And yes, I would most definatly opt for the EFI. Forgot to mention that in the subject line. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Is $6,250 a decent price on a new SP 700 EFI?

 

Sounds like a good price to me.
