Are there any problems / complaints with the KQ? Haven’t heard much about the KQ, so I don’t if that’s a good or bad thing.

Just put a twin air filter on it before you ride with the junk filter that comes on it

I also would buy the KQ before any of the other chioces. I rode my KQ for a year and I'd still own it if BRP did'nt come out with such a great 2-seater Max 800. Except for the 0-9 mph lag,the KQ will leave a smile on your face that you wont forget for a long time.

The Polaris ATVs are very heavy and this extra weight can hamper you on a long trailride if its a slow and technicle trail. Other than that, the Polaris is a good choice too. Just too many things I dont like about the BF. I also like the 660 Grizz but would never select it over the KQ.

Why not AC? They have the best utility quads as far as the Speed Rack accessories, which can quickley attatch anything, and thats not exaggerating. And they have a two inch reciever for trailering, best ground clearance, and only true front and rear IRS. But if not, then i would go with the KQ as my next choice.

How does the KQ and the Grizzly compare? Does anyone know how these two will do on gas, what would be the average mpg?

KQ is more nimble in tighter spaces,steers easier and has a range of about 90-100 miles of trail riding. The Grizz is larger and has a little better ride to it. It also has a range of about 90-100 miles on a tank of gas,depending on speeds and type of terrain.

Basically the KQ is a grizz with 35cc more and efi. Only other diff are the grizz has more ground clearance and suspension travel. They are priced about about the same. I have driven them both and they ride and drive very similar. The grizz has a little more lowend grunt, but mid and top goes to the KQ. I would buy the KQ between the two.

carburetors are time tested, what improvements does EFI bring? Are there any drawbacks? Have thy been around (on quads ) long enough to be deemed reliable? Thanks for all the good advice.
