Guys, I am picking up a 2012 brute force 650 tomorrow... I am trading in my 2003 polaris sportsman 500 ho and I am wondering how much performance difference I will notice between the two. I am getting out of Polaris due to the fact that I am tired of reparing a machine with only 1400 non muddin miles on it! Simply put it was time for a change and I felt like the Kawasaki was a great deal for the amount of cc's. Any input would be appreciated.

 

Big performance boost with that 650. You will be very pleasantly surprised.

 

thanks for the reply, I am picking it up in a few hours and can't wait to get it !

 

I am going to be selling my 2012 sportsman and looking hard at the BF750 - I have not had maintenance issues with mine, but looking for something lighter, more sporty, and more powerful. Good luck on the new ride!

 

How did it go picking up your new brute? I have a 2011 750 and love it. Lots of power

 

I picked ut up last Wednesday and I am very pleased with this purchase. ALthough I only got the 650 this thing will pull wheelies at the touch of the throttle. I am also very pleased with the engineering and how simple the machine is. I am getting my winch tomorrow and will be installing it tomorrow evening. We are getting ready for a family trip to Hatfield Mccoys in early July.

So far so good, great machine, great purchase!
