can-am800 vs sportsman800
#91
Read some of the posts on other forums about outfitters who are trading out their old quads and gettin some Ouites in the mix. It seems like after just a little while, the first quads chosen to ride are allways the Outies. The exception that I will grant is that if you are in moderate technical conditions the Polaris may have a better ride but it is nowhere near as fun to ride.

It's not even a contest if you put a #150 bag of sand on the Outlander. You sure are expending a LOT of time and energy trying to prove a point that seems more like arguing whether granny smith or red delicious is a better apple.
Ummmmm..are your trailblazers 4WD?
Whats interesting here is you see a few people who have switched from Polaris to Can Am and swear they'd never go back but I wonder how many Can Am riders have switched to Polaris and claimed the same?

Now as to the 4WD drive system. I have yet to hear any technical argument from you either for or against any system. Must be you are too busy picking apples.

I'd prefer to bang my head against the wall because thats pretty much about what you are doing.
Ummmmmm.....again, are your Trailblazers 4WD? Are you speaking from ownership experience riding both machines for many hours over the same terrain?
The Polaris DVD is bullspit and even most guys on the Polaris forum will tell you that. The BRP video is done with professional drives and with independently verified results and this is clearly stated in the presentation.
The SP800 is a fat slob coming in at nearly 800 LBS, thats just plain absurd. Is that technical enough for you?
Do you or have you owned an SP800? Do you have a LOT of seat time in both the Outlander 800 and SP800? Oh, what the heck, how about the 650/700 classes?

raidermike67.. you are taking this thread way too seriously. I happen to think both quads are very good quads. However, I believe the Polaris 4WD system is superior. Dang I haven't even hit all four of my points yet, only the first one. I see this is going to be a looooooooong thread.
