They are touting that the polaris 600 is a more limber machine than the 700. It stills weighs 740 lbs dry. When are they going to find out that even the majority of polaris fans hate driving a tank? The polaris tech's need to ride the p650 so they will know what a good machine should feal like.

Well that should stir up some $---

 

Most of us Polaris riders are strong enough to hndle a tank so we don't need to complain. Prarie a better machine? Im sick of hearing all the 650 owners bragging about how great and sporty thier UTILITY machine is. The inly thing the prarie is better for is racing is a straite line. My brother in law is the same way about praising his prarie, but I love it when I turn around and see hes not behind me because he is stuck trying to come up the hill hung up on rocks and my tank winches him out.

 

This is going to be really entertaining. LOL

 

I am not the kind of guy to put down any brand of ATV but if the Polaris ATv's are such tanks then why in our area at ATV challenge events to the Polaris 700's and 500's consistantly finish ahead of the 650 Prarie.

Remeber.....don't throw stones from a glass house.

 

Let's face it, you'd be lying to yourself if you said you wouldn't rather have your polaris be 100 pounds lighter! Or to be more exact; 140 - 180 pounds lighter depending on the sp 600 or sp 700.

 

If it means keeping my ground clearence and the awesome ride of the IRS...I will gladely keep the extra weight....... Have you ever driven a Sportsman???? No doubt about it the 650 prarie has an awesome engine... but thats not the only reason i by a machine..... I ran Kawasaki years ago, have run Suzuki's also......Kawasaki has come along way since those days, but so has all machines.

Yep things were a little dull, good way to stir up the pole owners. Hay you! young man, drag those car tires over here and see if we can heat up this fire. And if you think pole owners are sensative , mention a dislike for the rincon.
Yep you would never catch mrs. harveys little boy raymond being brand loyel, i study them and them go out and buy the best quad at the best price. But i could be wrong, i have been wrong before.

 

Hey guys, you misunderstood, if the Pararie 650 came with IRS I would definately consider it, like i said the power of the 650 is awesome...but i look for the whole package. 4 years ago we use to laugh the Polaris guys out of meetings, but now I am 1....times change and only time will tell who develops what next......

Keep the rubber side down...........

 

I absolutely love my p650, and it handles and rides wonderfully, but I do have a slight hint of jealousy when I think about the 11 to 12 inches of ground clearance that other machines have. As soon as I get on it and start to drive, however, I get a big grin on my face and forget about the clearance issue. My opinion is, I would love to have my 650 and a polaris 600 twin, and a grizzly--they are all great I am sure.
