When it comes to powersliding, I wanted to point out something I thought worth mentioning in that the King comes with tires that are almost like race slicks from the factory and in a day and age where aftermarket tires and wheels are becoming the norm, I would not count on a king power sliding like a prairie with anything but the slicks it comes with. that said both are good machine but I prefer the way an SRA handels and the only IRS that I would say is even close is the Outy 650/800's.

 

I will agree the King tires suck. But I will say the Outty does not even come close to handling as good as the King. The Outty is very tippy in the hard stuff

 

I guess I have not been in the same kind of hard stough, I thought it felt well planted to me, my old polaris 800 felt tippy but the Outy has always felt stable and surefooted. I think it reminds me allot of my Prairies. The kings ride nice but I don't get the handeling thing you are talking about. The kings we have just seem ok, I could see where some aftermarket tires and rims would change it a bit but stock vs stock I just don't see what you are talking about.

 

My too cousins have a KQ stock, and a BF750 with HMF. The brute takes him of the line but the KQ catches and passes him everytime. Not saying that happens in all cases but in these two bikes it does. Now top end speed isnt everything, youve gotta weigh in the pros and cons of each, Cousin with BF750 after riding the KQ wishes he would have bought one instead of the 750BF. I think I would lean more toward a BF650i than the prairie or the 750BF, the IRS is supposed to be a little better handling than the 750 model, and youve still got really good power. For me it would be between the KQ700 and BF650i. I rode my cousins KQ700 and it feels alot like a SRA, it slides around and handles more like a SRA than the BF750. Of course i havnt ridden the BF650i, but if I were you Ide got out and ride the KQ700, BF650i, and the Prairi 700, and see what you like, I think you might change youre mind about the Prairi700, or maybe not!

 

Finaly somebody that has seen a King beat a Brute. Mine would beat my Brute and when I tell people that they just think YEAH SHURE IT DOES I know it a short race the Brute will win but anything over 100 feet and the King will be the winner I have heard that the 650 bf handles better than the 750 bf

 

I've also been really leaning toward the BRP 650. I can work a deal on one that would be very close to what I would pay for a P700 so I think I am definatly leaning toward the Bomb. now. What you guys think?

 

I ride the rubicon and sierra trek alot. The Outty likes to three wheel alot when going down hill on the rocks.Dont get me wrong I realy like it,but the King is way better for this type of riding.The clutch on the King is the smoothest engaging I have ever felt.I have owned a Grizzly,Polaris,Brute 750,Outty 800,and a King 700. Also the King takes less rider input to ride so at the end of the day your not as tired.
