Default Brute force vs. Prarie 700

I guess he means a drag race. Will it outmud the BF? Does it ride as good? Sure it will beat it in a few categories, but it will probably lose in a few others. Its about impossible to make the ideal quad, because you will always have to sacrifice one thing for another.

Default Brute force vs. Prarie 700

I just bought my 750, I live in Tampa, FL. After 5 hrs on the engine it seems to be breaking in but I am not able get the quad to do a wheelie. It almost gets there but not quite. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Steve

Check the CVT belt tension. On the Prairies, it seems to pull wheelies from a dead stop much easier if the belt is tight (within spec). A loose belt seems to make it harder to pull wheelies. Also, you should try to get the Dyna cdi or any module to eliminate the retarded timing at take-off and also get better tires than stock (more traction usually means you can pull wheelies instead of just spinning your tires).

I Guess you guys herd that pooolaris did come out with a fake 800, at least in my book a 760 is just that a 760. I could go along with a 5 to 15 cc fudge factor but not 40 cc's. I Guess Yamaha can go ahead and start calling the Raptor, Rhino, and Grizzly's the all new 700's and averyone will rush out to get them.

I think by the end of the year the V-force and the P700 will enherit the BF's engine just like when the P650 got the V-force engine. I have always herd it was cheaper to build the engines the same vs a few 650s a few 700s and a few 750's. That just makes sense to me that as soon as the new of the BF weres off they will want to fire up the public intrest by releasing a 750 V-force and later yet get a final PR bounce from the Prarrie 750 to close out the year as an early release 2005. I know that would be my marketing statagy for the Year. You know they wont drop the SRA big bore quad it is what has made them a real , real force in the current ATV market and you can bet Kawi knows there are a lot of us riders that like a little more sport in there sport utility ATV"s than an IRS quad can give.
If you can't slide the a$$ end around with a little blipp of the throdle I don't want it. I love to through my STP700 and P650 around on the trails and at the dunes, IRS Quads are just borring to ride. on a 1 or 2 hour trip in places you ride all the time. I like a Quad that can play and play hard. I like an IRS quad only for the real senic all day rides were I not riding just to have fun but riding to get somewhere like in colorado.

cc1999,

I agree with you 100% about sliding the rear end around. Like you, I also like the sportier ride and also like the power down low for hill climbs and to lift the front end up every now and then..[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

My intentions where to purchase a Prairie 700 this upcoming fall, but I would wait for the 750 if they should ever develop one in the very near future...
