I've seen a few outlanders on the trails at a distance and was impressed, so I went to the dealer the other day to take an up close and personal look - these bikes are super sweet. I crawled up under it, inside and out, and it is really nice man. The plastic racks are super nice, the amazing new frame design is awesome, the suspension is amazing, the power is killer for a 400, and the 330 is not much different. The plastic design I really like - there are many many angles and planes and corners that really set it off, but you can't make them out in the pictures. The coolest thing about this quads design is the brakes - mounted in the middle totally protected from the grit and debris that constantly plagues quads after a mud ride.

I highly recommend you go check one out if you're in the market for a utility. Keep in mind that it has 4 whell independant suspension, so yes there's some roll in the corners, but hey its a utility, its made to carry gear on the racks through bumpy rocky terrain, not powerslide like a DS!

 

Bombardier says they make some good atv's and they just might? But what happens if you need partsor the atv repaired
I used to have a bomb that is what we called it because it was DS-90 for my son. The atv looked nice but when ever i need it serviced or parts it was a major problem !! you might want to look into buying parts somewhere before you make your dessicion

 

i think the minis may be hard to get part for because they aren't actually made by bomb, they just bought them from another company outta like taiwan or somethin like that

 

Yea you won't have a problem getting parts for a DS/Traxter/Quest or Outlander. I guarantee it [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Well i have to say, i sall a outlander 400 4x4 in camo today. They do look a lot better in person than on paper. In fact i really liked the way it looked.
But!
Why did they put the battery is the worst possible place??

 

any one know if they plan to change the location of the battery in the future?

 

bump

 

Thats the only place you can fit the battery....Btw about the plastic, Even after tons of abuse i dont have any cracks yet.. The only thing youll get are scratches, but thats bound to happen.. Ive sqeezed it between trees, put it on its side, The plastics are really tough..
