GF(Polaris)
I once drag raced a sport 400 and yes on the straighaways he blew me away. (BTW I ride a 99 Blaster, FMF System)
Well we were in a field about 200x300 yards, we all started doing laps around the thing, me the 400 polaris, a 250 yamaha dirtbike, and a 125 kawa dirtbike. On every corner I would overtake the polaris and gain a good lead over him and be folowing the dirtbikes (kinda close). Then when we would get to the next turn the polaris would be behind me but as soon as we took the corners I would pull a huge lead.
The kid was a good rider but I could do more in the corners, come in fast, no brake, downshift, slide/lean, gun it, up shift, take off and soon he would be behind me when we were about to take the next turn but could not take it as well.

 

ATVBLO: I have TAG bars on my quad.

 

i really think that polarises are underated but they arent up to the handeling of the 400ex. now if honda would stop being a bunch of weenies and put a real engine in a quad...

 

I agree, Polaris never made a race ready quad, and they'll probably never make a quad that handles as well as a 300 or a 400EX. I'm sure a company as big as Honda has something in the works to compete with the Raptor and the DS. They're gonna have to to stay #1 in sales. Also, people are stuck with the mindset of the old Polarises, which did have a reliability problem years ago. I think they are built as well as any other machine now. They aren't #2 because no-one likes them.
