Sure dragging is a blast, but the majority of the time I've got my brute in a hole. Are you going to do 65 in the woods? Nope prob not. The only thing that matters is customer satisfaction. If you like your wheeler than good for you, me, I love mine! The only prob I have heard of with the 800 bombs is that visco lock front diff. It's said that bigger tires mess it up. Now me, I like to lock in my front diff and not have the wheeler decide when it is to lock in. But that might just be me.

 

hahaha, I know that my wheeler is enough machine for me.

 

I was able to ride today. The bf 650i beat a 650 bomb and a 650 John deer and took a 700 suzuki. This is just across field roads. Be nice to see an actual test set up by experts. This was just for fun not really a true test because I am not a expert.

 

atta boy, Naab. i can hear the shreiks of agony from here. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

but anyhow, i kinda thought this would happen. is your machine still stock?

monty

 

If stock just means out of the store and nothing done special to it, than yes. It is just fun to ride and have fun.

 

So the outty 650 isnt the fastest 650 made. Now we will have to see waht someone else does that will outrun an 800 outty.

 

I just can't help myself. But I went down to the dealer a week or so ago. I looked the bomb 800 over real good. Because I read some where in hear about their frames being dented and bent. I was in awe when I looked under it. I was even more baffeled when I flicked it and it sounded like it was only 1/16" thick. I can't beleive they made that frame that way. I am not bashing BRP. But if I owned one I would be fabricating something to that thing to protect it from getting dented or bending. If I rode one before I noticed that the frame was like that, I would have done bent it. Not saying that I am the hardest person in the world on utes. But I ride one like a sport quad. WFO and don't slow down for log's and rock's. Jump and wheelie mine into log's and such. If I done the things that I have done to all my previous ute's. I have to believe that I would crush that crappy little frame, BRP put under that thing. Again I am not bashing BRP. I was thinking of trading. Or I would not have went to look at one. Oh, back to the subject. So if you race the BRP through a tough obstacle course it might win. If you don't crush the frame.

 

Thats another reason the renegade shedded so much weight, with cheap frame work.

 

There frame work certainly isnt cheap. The Outlanders are the most technologically advanced ATV out there. But as goes with higher tech it tends to break easier.
