Yes it can! This is one of my buddies that I go riding with. He uses his 700 like a sport quad. He can wheelie this thing easy as cake and his best jump to date is 75ft. So for all you disbeleivers here are some clips. I have more if you like.

He did break a bolt on the rear A arm. He has done a ton of jumps before it broke. He is not as hard on it anymore but he put it through its paces to see how it would hold up. He WAS diehard Yamaha fan but he loves his Polaris.

Your right its not. That jump was only 45ft. I will find a better clip of the bigger jumps. Not many people can say they can do big jumps on an 800lb atv.

I can barely get the front end up on my '05 700 EFI, then again I live in alot higher altitude.....I have the stock clutch but will hopefully be changing that soon and then will see what it does...I have the front brushguard and 3000 pound warn winch on the front....
