please help I thought i was getting the p700 but if i can find a good deal on a brute i might get one. I know all the differences i just need some opinions I ride some water/mud some rough trails and open trails and woods. Any help thanked

 

Thought you were settled on a machine...

They are really two different animals. Both have awesome power so all you need to concentrate on is the ride and how well it fits your needs. Do you want IRS or SRA?

Good choice and good luck on finding a P700. Not that many still around. My dealer ordered 2 and is still waiting. He has 3 750 BF's that are still there, Two still in crates.

 

I wouldn't think it would be hard to find a 700 anywhere. Maybe your location is starved out for quads at the moment. Its not like its a brand new model that just came out and is hard to find.

As far as the BF or P700, you probably should ride these as much as possible and jack around with them until you are for sure with what you want. You were comparing the 700 to a Grizzly not long ago, another IRS machine. You chose the Prairie over that. Now you are comparing it to a BF. Need to just figure out what all you are wanting out of a quad and go from there. The IRS is nice, but the P700 will cost you less than the BF and seems to be what you are really after anyway.

As far as availablity, if you couldn't find a P700, you could just a soon get a Twin Peaks. Same quad unless you don't want to see the word "SUZUKI" slapped on the side of it. Same machine entirely.

 

Andy p700's are scarce in my neck of the woods. Dealer ordered back in Aug for 2 p-700's and 19 Bf's and has yet to get a p-700 in.
I spoke with him yesterday about it.
I'm sure there are some 2004's still out there but not many and even fewer 2005's.
By the way I'm not looking it was B200.

 

Sounds like you are having trouble deciding what you want, because you were asking about a Prairie vs a Grizzly before, and now you're asking about a Prairie vs a Brute Force. If you want good handling the Prairie is the best, and the Brute Force is the worst. If you want good suspension the Grizzly is the best, and the Prairie is the worst. If you want power the Prairie and Brute Force are pretty much even, and the Grizzly is a distant third. So go ride them at your local dealers, and buy the one you like the best.

The Prairie is about impossible to find around here, ... our local dealer has a dozen Brute Forces and not one single Prairie.

no body has p700 in stock cause they stopped producion on everything to make the brute forces.

 

The Grizzly doesn't have a better suspension than the Prairie. It might be a bit smoother, but at high trail speeds it is not good.
Guess it depends on what you're looking for.
OuterLimit...that is a sweet Green Priairie BTW. I was eye-balling that one myself. We'll be building a new home here in a month or so, so my ATVing will be non existant for quite sometime. Shoulda just bought my Prairie from me.
