which shows how much power it has, it can hang with a BF and it weighs 165 more. plus the 800 comes with a hitch and the weight helps it be a UTILITY. which is what its made for.

Um it doesnt really hang with the BF, it is actually like a 760cc motor. a byou 250 can hang with a 750 on the trails i ride on. But the 800 cant cuase it is so heavy. and forget top speed. Not a chance.

I'll second that, I severly doubt a Polaris 800 EFI can hang with a Brute Force, unfortunatly, I can't tell you this for fact because I have yet to see or race a Polaris 800. I think they are just a myth, and nobody really has one lol.

I would be torn between the BF and the KQ. One of the reasons I like the KQ so much is that it has EFI. Yeah, so does the Polaris, but been there, done that. I have a Prairie, so I'm not sure about the 4x4 engagement of the BF. The KQ is instant engagement and has that locking differential. I also love the styling of the KQ. I kept hearing that BF would come out with an EFI, but until they do, I'd be torn. My only complaint about the Prairie is that it doesn't have instant engagement into 4x4, or the ability to engage into 4x4 from a dead stop. If BF was to come out with an EFI, it would be the easy choice.

the BF 4wd doesnt kick in until you move a few feet, I would hope if you were stuck, engaged it, and spun the rear wheels a bit slowly it would kick in? that EFI sure was nice!!!!! I have had a lot of other carbed quads, but this is the first one that ran like crap off the showroom floor. When I was test riding it, I figured it was just cold, WRONG!
