Default KAWASAKI KFX-700

My father is going to start riding with me so we can spend more time together, hes 6'2 and 205 lbs.

He needs a strong yet big enough quad, but since ill ride it also it has to be fast to

heres the 2 weve narrowed it down to


1.Kawasaki V-Force 700 or
2. Yamaha Grizzly 660


we will be doing trails maybe little bit of mud and i will be doing heel clickers and weelies[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]!

peace,

7QS7

To me those are totaly different quads. What kind of riding are you going to do? Will you need 4x4?

If he wants a fast 4x4, Go with the Brute force 650.I dont know your price range, but the price is around a grizzly so I think the Brute force 650 will be good.

If your only looking at those two quads, get the grizzly. But look into other brands.

I would choose the KFX700 if you plan to ride both in the sand and in the mountains. I can take mine up in the mountains with my wife's Praire and can go almost anywhere she goes. I tend to only have trouble with the deep mud holes and in very sloppy muddy conditions and rock climbing, all of which a 4x4 would work better in. Otherwise I would get a Prairie 700 or a Brute Force 750. My wifes Prairie had quicker accelleration than the Grizzly and felt much more stable to me when we tried them out. Honestly though, all those bike's would make a fine selection.

I agree with Vtwinman, the Prairie 700 would be a great choice. I also wanted a sport quad but also a 4x4 option. The Prairie 700 is similar to the KFX700 but given you an AWD option. It wheelies, got great acceleration, does beautiful donuts with its straight rear axles and it is also available in the Team Green color for 2005 (to celebrate it success in racing events. It has won every years stock and unlimited utility Championship since its introduction in 2001, and that says a lot).

No doubt about it, the V is the only one to chose!
