Good choice. If Kawasaki isn't smart enough to keep making their most successful utility ATV ever, then by all means buy the same ATV with a Suzuki decal on it.

Yep I noticed when comparing the specs of the P700 and TP700 they appeared to be the same machine.
Now been informed after waiting for two weeks, that I shouild take delivery on Friday. It's in the dealers, they have email pics (it's blue), now just waiting for the registration to be completed.

Blue is good. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Around our house blue outnumbers any other color by more than 2:1. See picture.

Good choice if I say so myself. If you have not got it yet there are some more pics on my page of Blue Twin peaks. I think you will be very happy with it. I have been with mine. I have test road several Quads this fall and wouln't trade even my old prarrie 650 for any of them. the Twinpeaks / prarrie 700 is the best Quad on the market in my opinion.

CC what's on your odo now? I'm very happy with mine, I don't want to even drive anything else anymore... At one time it didn't matter what I drove as long as I was ATVing, now only the Kawi 650 or 700 will do.

The old P650 has about 1500 miles and the STP700 has 680. The new 800 project Twin Peaks has only about 30 miles on it. still trying to work out the bugs. I think we will have it ready for this weekend to give it another try.

I feel the same way, I keep looking for somthing better but I can't even find anything even comparable. So far I have test road over the past 2 months a Rincon, King Quad, BF 750, AC V2, I even road 2 different John deers(BPR's)(500 & 650). So far I wouldn't trade the old P650 even up for any of them, much less Pay difference. The only thing that I can find that I like is the new BF650, its just a prarrie with new plastic, so nothing to be realy gained there.

Hi I took delivery today, the P700 turned out to be a TP700!
It was delivered to the car park of a local bar up it the mountains, 5 kms from my house, the last 5 kms being a bit too narrow for the dealer's van to get down.

I have never driven a ATV/QUAD before. I started up, opened up the throttle and the TP headed for a very deep drainage ditch, with several locals watching. I managed to stop the thing just in time. Then I headed off down the last narrow twisty, with steep unfenced drop on one side, 5 kms to my farm. Wow! I narrowly missed going off the road at least ten times.

Got home read the manual while having lunch, (I have never seen so many warning notices, if they omitted them the manaul would have been easier to read and a 10th of the size. Set off again with more success, cornering is improving, but I am still putting my foot on the ground when I stop,

It will mega fun when I get used to it.
