For riding fast, riding slow, handling, and all out toughness, there are much better choices out there; there isn't a single ATV that excels at everything. It all depends on what you wish to do with your machine.

I think it comes down to feel and preferences. I drove a King Quad and had considered it. I thought it was an awesome quad, and it is.
I prefer the "feel" of the sportsman over the King quad. To me the King quad would have been a great replacement for my prairie 650 if I wanted irs and sport-like handling. I think the King quad is the king in that department.
However, I'm not looking for sportiness, if I was I'd choose the king quad right now.
I just like how the sportsman drives, and I think it's plenty sporty for me. It's all about feel and preferences. I really want the on demand 4x4, and other features of the sportsman. I don't like the 2 wheel ebs though.
So, in summary, both are awesome, it's just depends what you want and like.

I look at the differences between my KQ and 700 Sportsman like this:
If they were both trucks the KQ would be a Toyota Tacoma and the Polaris would be a Ford Superduty diesel. If I rode with mostly sport riders I would take the KQ. For other uses and hunting it is the Sportsman. I really don't think either quad will handicap anyone. Just get out and ride something!
