I too also prefer the brute styling and my p 650 has plenty of power. did they give you a plow for the brute ???Kawi was running a $69 deal

they wont do that yet, Unless there is a brand new promotion out. I tried to do that and they would not do it cause the BF was too new and cam out in the middle of the promotion. They said they didnt even have the plow mounts out yet. But it uses the p650 plow mounts and winch mounting plate, so you dont have to wait for the aftermarket ones to come out. I was pissed.
If it uses the P650 mounts than they have been availible for a very long time... I am pretty sure it uses the P700 hardware anyway though, which is also availible.

You should not need anything new for this machine that wasnt already offered on either the P650 or P700 aside from the plastic.

I was a day late for the $69 promotion anyways. It ended on the 31st of December. I was p*ssed. I might have gotten the P700 if it didn't. I also could have saved close to $200 if I drove 1 1/2 hours south but didn't think it was worth it.

I did get a plow anyways (of course). I got the 50" Moose since 60" would be too wide for some of the sidewalks around here. We might get hammered (with snow[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]) Wed. night, so hopefully I'll have it ready by then.

Thanks again everyone. I'm pumped and can't wait to feel that V-twin power!!! Brute Force...is that not one of if not the most bad a** names ever for a quad? You really cannot get more crude and barbaric than that.

brute n
1. An animal; a beast
2. A brutal, crude, insensitive person
adj.
1. Of or relating to beasts; animal: “None of the brute creation requires more than food and shelter” (Henry David Thoreau).
2. Characteristic of a brute, especially:
a. Entirely physical: brute force.
b. Lacking or showing a lack of reason or intelligence: a brute impulse.
c. Savage; cruel: brute coercion.
d. Unremittingly severe: was driven to steal food through brute necessity.

Good Choice. I bet that the BF650 will be no slower than a P700 on the trials.

I love my P700, but The 650 would be my second choice. It does have a nice look too.

correct, but just cuase it will fit it still doesnt say BF650 on it so they didnt include it. Shoot the dealership could nto even figure out what i did on the plow mounts.

IT uses the 700 hardware also.

Nice choice, I am looking at the BF myself.
I now have a vinson auto that I paid 5200 otd for last year, that was brand new.

I need a little more power, cant have enough lol.

But like everyone said, The vinson is great on the trails and is probably the best 500cc class atv out there.
