i have a kodi 450 but i'm going to move up. I ride on trails and mud. now after back surgery i'm staying away from big hills. but i want to use it for working around the house" pushing snow and moving" plus there are times I like taking the wife so I would like the 2 rider hows the 650 differ from the 800. I'm looking at the King quad 700 or one of these 650 or 800 outlander thanks

 

The kq is not offered in a two up model, i am sure that the 800 will have far more power than the other two. But i believe the kq may still be the best handling quad out there.

 

Just curious of the combined weight of you and your wife, the KQ's weight capacity is 380lbs and I wouldn't recommend much over that...but I wouldn't recommend a machine made for two riders if you are only going to take the wife along a few times a year because you'll have to deal with the extra length and weight the 2ups have when your driving on the trail. If your worried about getting injured I don't recommend the 800...it's power can flip it over backwards. More Power+ More weight= increased danger

 

the difference between the 650 and 800 beside the engines is the weight, the 650 is actually heavier than the 800...i own an 800 and this thing is incredible, it is actaully my wifes ride....we both love it..it can ride real easy and smooth but if you need it , it can scream like crazy...this wkend she climbed some stuff with no problem and felt real comfotable cause of its size and power....

we both fit on it real easy also, and it is not the 2 seater..i am not sure how 2 seater riding ever became such a big deal that you need a special lenth quad with a 2nd seat..i grew up riding double on litte atc like 90 and 110 and we did fine...if you are only riding the wife once in a while dont get a 2 seater...its to long.. squeeze her on with you there is plenty of room...

 

agreed!
