This Thing is unreal! almost dangerous, power to spare. I picked it up today, at perkins tire in mississippi 8194 out the door with the winch a warn 2.5 I have not put the winch on yet I will do it tonight. All I can say is this thing will flat out stand up if you give it the gas. from a roll anywhere from 0 to about 20 you give it the gas the front comes off the ground. I have not had a chance to get it in the mud yet. The suspension is like night and day from my 500 as well as my buddy's 03 700 which rides great. It rides very plush the front as well as the back is much softer it will swing the back out like a sports quad. I could not be happier with this thing I will post later how it does on a hard ride through mud

I'd like to know the results of that race. I'm sure many others would too.

congrats on the new quad. did you happen to test out the new 05' 700EFI or did you just opt for the biggest of the sportsman line to get it over with. I love the new features of the 05's and love the dual exhaust on the 800 model but don't know if the extra $1000 is worth going from the 700 to the 800. when I got my quads I looked at it like this, well you start at the 400 then say to yourself well for not much more you can get the 500 and for not much more than that you can get the 600 then the 700. from the 700 to the 700EFI is only like $200-300 difference. but god a grand is alot of money and a huge difference.

silver in the business I am in I look at everything in memberships I looked at as I just talk to 10 more people I can get the 800. AS for a comparison my bud has a 03 700 and after riding mine he is bringing it in to trade. You can not even compare the 2. I expected it to be just a little more powerful yet it is like night and day, the power difference. The ride is not even close on the 04s to the 05 as well.

What do you mean exactly? I'm interested in your impression of the ride differences.

Thanks.
