IRS on a sport quad, seems funky. what do you think.

 

does seem kinda funky but i would think it would take a beating and it would ride good

 

I'd like to see how all that aluminum holds up. It looks like Polaris did its homework. You have to admit, it is surprisingly light for something with IRS, although I think they could shave a few more pounds off. If the Predator weighed 375lbs and the Outlaw weighed 415 then that would be sweet.

 

im not sure how good the outlaw is gunna be because its the first sport with irs. usually quads with first anything turn into a big mess and then get fixed in the next years model. it might be a good bike but i think there will be a couple mistakes on it.

 

the outlaw is going to have less accel more top end than the predator, i mean like .5 mph more top end but its going to have more top end

 

Not baggin on ya or anything, but it's a common mistake allot of people make. "Top end" is not measured in MPH, top speed is. Low end, mid-range, and top end are commonly refered to when talking about measurements of torque, or power throughout the RPM range...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Well considering Polaris has the best IRS out there and has been doing it for years, I would say they should do quite well with the Outlaw. And since there still useing the Pred engine and tranny in which have been very reliable, there should not be to many bugs in this one.

 

The Outlaw is suppose to have more torque then the Pred, so take off should be very close in acceleration. They are useing the close ration tranny from the TLD but they shorten the gap between 4th and 5th, so the Outlaw will be a few MPH slower on top speed.
