DSAPP,
I will be perfectly honest with you, my 700 flies better, lands better, and feels more stable in the air than my 400 does. As far as High Speed Handling goes, it's NO Contest, 700 all the way. I have been very consistent in my proclaiming the 700 to be the Best Trail Quad I have ever ridden. The 400 is no slouch, but it just can't compare. The 700 does this regardless of the additional weight it carries. The 700 does not behave like a 540lb quad. It's hard to explain unless you have ridden one. Those who have, already know that what I am saying is true.
With that said, I will say (and have said) that I prefer my 400 in the sand. I like the way my 400 seems to get on top of the sand quicker. I know that my 700 will still beat my 400 in the sand, it's just a seat of the pants feeling. That is just my personal opinion.

I certainly wouldn't want to try anything daring in the air with a V-Force...

There is a Thread somewhere in this Forum with some shots of a Pro Rider catching MAJOR AIR. If you can't find it, PM me with your e-mail address and I will send the shots to you.

I would consider someone who has NO knowledge of what they are talking about to be "Ignorant".
The issue was the weight of the KFX700, NOT ALL Quads. The FACTS are from those of us who own and have had seat time on the 700 is that the weight is Not an issue. The weight is not something that is noticeable or of concern, for any number of different reasons, Power, Suspension, Handling Characteristics and so on.

The more you guys talk about this bike the more i want to try it. Its still very hard to believe. Just imagine if the bike were a manual, and chain drive. If it handles great now, how would it handle with 100 less lbs? I never like jumping my raptor because of its weight. I moved to a 400ex and like it a ton better. Doesnt matter that it has less power.

THe weight of the V-Force is not an issue or problem with me.It handles so well and turns on a dime and can give you 9 cents change.Has no lag what so ever and has a lot of torque and power to it. This is just stock, wait until the aftermarket kicks in and there will be lots of power products and light weight A-arms and stuff of the sort.That is when the masses will be in aww over this quad.
In my opinion the KFX 700 V-Force is the best highperformance quad EVER.

Someone must not have told this guy that the KFX700 is too Heavy, and that it can't do this.
