thanks AK..am I making sense here?..lol..you can only go just so fast on the trails anyhow before you hit the limit of your riding capabilities and the limits of the machine..after that it doesnt matter if your turbo charged nitrous injected monstrosity has wings..it wont matter

 

andy.. have i ever rode an irs quad? I have a sportsman sitting beside my P650 in the building and when i load it down it DOES sink the rear end. and if i put a 200+lb passanger behind me, it drags comming up my drive way.

 

No S@it, Driver 200lb + 200lb passange +200lb in gear= 600 lb, im not supprized the solid rear axle does break

WTF are you trying to say?

So do the Brute and King Quad share the same frame and suspension. In the pictures I have seen they look the same. I saw in the Suzuki web site that they have double a-arm with 5 way adjustable shocks too. Just wondering, that would be good for availability of parts and aftermarket.

 

I've been looking at the pictures and specs and I'm thinking the Brute Force and King Quad share the frame, suspension and part of the drive train. The sealed wet rear brake through me over the edge on this. Different engine and plastic for sure! This would be good for aftermarket parts I would think.

 

Guys..All I know is that the BF is completely a Kawasaki designed unit. To my knowledge...there is no shared alliance on this model...

 

Good: Power, can never have too much in my book, if you don't want it, don't buy it. Looking for the 850EFI next year!
(although EFI is kind of overkill and under utilized in a 4 stroke atv I think,it be nice though)
604lbs!!!

Bad: IRS-more bad than good I think, squat-rollover...nuff said. (and oh, everybody else has it, now we do)
Hey don't the struts have a smaller turning radius???

Ugly: Boxy fenders, Grizzly front end, Polaris/AC Tank/seat transition.

 

For Daranello75- that was pretty funny.

For the guy I asked on the IRS- didn't know you had a Sportsman dude. Not in a signature so no way to know. Yeah, Sp500 tends to squat bad. You answered my question, thanks. But drags on the driveway? Thats bad. They need adjustable shocks if they don't have them already.

As far as the quads go, other than engine, they can't do a lot more with them anymore. I'm thinking I'll just keep my 660, because the 750 isn't going to be able to do anything more than outrun it. Its basically the same kind of quad with a bigger engine. But its a hell of a quad so far.

 

TO kawaiguy,
have you had the opportunity to test the KEBC or if it has any?
