Default 2005 Polaris Sportsman 400 or Suzuki Eiger 400?

I'm looking at either a 2005 Polaris Sportsman 400 auto, or 2005 Suzuki Eiger 400 auto. I will be using it to ride trails and plow my driveway. Any help would be greatly appreciated...thx

Well the sportsman is 425 cc and the eiger is 376cc. The sportsman has a greater rack and towing capacity also. Pricewise I bet the sportsman is about a grand more. The eiger you can get the 5 speed or the auto. I like the looks of the polaris better myself. Anyway, happy shopping.

Check out this web site www.atvtv.com they have their review of those quads and rate them. This might help your decision.

IMO the Eiger is a better all around quad than the Polaris. The Sportsman may have a few more CCs but it also weighs a lot more so it kind of balances out. Best thing to do is give them both a test ride. Both are good quads.
