o.k. you have a little old lady, an honest politician, the easter bunny, santa claus, and a sp700 all starting at the same time from the same place, racing towards the finish line..................who would win? the little old lady of course........the rest are figments of your imagination, they just don't exist.

Yea the SP700 is better then the K650... when pigs fly!!! The 650 is coming, while no one knows when or if the SP700 will be made. People should save the slams until both wheelers are released!

The 700SP WILL not arrive til Spring. Mass production has not began. I'm sure more info on the 700 will leak out soon. The 700SP is not a rumor. Ride'em hard Polcat

ok, i went to another dealer in a different town and they corrected the previous stats. you are right. the kaw is switchable. Still like having 700 over having 650 to

and one more thing, when i said it had to ride well, what i meant was that it would be a requirement. Something weighing above 670 pounds may break something if it bottoms! LOL! peace.

Xplor,

This might be a first on these forums. As you said it Pre production bashing.

Look at all the Raptor bashing that went on, at least the DS-650 & 400ex were in production

SnowShark-go back and look at the bashing of the pre-released Rubicon transmission. It was not supposed to last a week and have to be totally replaced at massive costs several times a year. It has also been bashed for its horsepower rating, but with about 1/2 of the rating of a competitor it can out run it, or run evenly, and apparently has the HP, torque and driveline strength to turn the biggest 28" mud tire on the market. Most of those posts have disappeared. It happens to all new releases. Whether warranted or not, new things are threatening to some. Just have to do what you want and roll on.

I've got to agree with TxDoc2 on this one. The Rubicon was bashed like there was no tomorrow before it came out.

325boss, I first thought you felt so threatened by the fact Kawasaki is releasing the 650 that you knowingly published false and misleading information about the new quad (incorrectly claiming it had full-time four-wheel drive; limited-slip differential; excessive weight, etc.).

I now understand you were genuinely mistaken and ignorant of the true facts. I appreciate your clarification.

Now, please tell us once more why the SP700 is better, and your source of information (like the SP700's suspension travel and type).

Diogenes

But guys...on the other hand most Honda enthusiasts said it was the next best thing since sliced bread, even before it was out!

There's two sides to every story. Thats what makes these forums so exciting! Try talking about all this ATV mumbo-jumbo with non-riding friends, they would not comprehend anything...or even be the least bit interested.

Keep it up...it's all in good fun!
