Outdoor Channel 153 on Dish Network, I watched an episode about a month ago and it was very good, It featured a Honda Rancher ES, a Kawaski praire and a Polaris they were 4 wheeling in california on very rocky turain, It was great PR for the Honda Rancher ES which went thru everthing, the Kaw and the polaris had trouble crossing a stream and then climbing the bank on other side, the Kaw and the Polaris could not do the bank but he Rancher went right up the bank and thru. This was the best show I've seen so far, especially beacuse I was watching it with a Polaris owner that stated before the show started that he thought the Rancher would not be able to handle such rough turain.

Thanks to all for your reply's. I have a 4x4 & my previous quad was a Suzuki 4x4 also but my heart is in sport machines. I only have a 4x4 because I need one where I ride. I love the 250R, Raptor & 400EX's & wish they would have sport quads one of these days but if this ATV thing gets bigger they just might. Maybe utilities are bigger sellers than sports, I dont know. I ride the Scrambler since it's the closest thing to a sport machine in a 4x4.

Snowshark, sorry but I'm not sure which model of Kaw & Polaris was on that episode, but I'm thinking the Kaw was a 400 praire , and the Polaris was a 500, but I'm not for sure on that, maybe someone else can comment those models on that show.

ive had satellite for awhile and i only recently noticed the outdoor channel. when I first realized that it carries atv tv and I was excited. THey do mostly utes but some times you get to see sport quads. I don't think it is that exciting but it is better than nothin. THe only problem with it is the guy talks to MUCH!! Anyway the times are: MONDAYS at 5:00 Thursdays at 9:30 am and SATURDAYS at 3:00. can't really see the one on saturday cause i am usually ridin. But monday night is usually prime time for me. Watch the one that is on this week it is preety good. He doesn't talk that much.

ESPN2 has quad MX on occationally. I saw an interview w/ Tim Farr who won the championship the year it was on. They also had the Turkey Run Cross Country race on once which I attended in Ohio. It's usually at very late hours though when no one is up. I guess it's as much as we can expect & better than nothing. I want to see an ATV network that only shows quads shows 24hr a day. Then I'll be happy & will never say there's nothing on TV. I just about wore out my 2 Chochronton Poker Run vidios I bought.
