I already stated I know the BRP is faster and a better "sport" utility.
How many infomercials do you totally believe? It is now on OLN.

While parts of this video might be subjective, I think the gap between these machines is fairly small, mostly boiling down to preference and possibly the price (B/F $1,000 cheaper then BRP or Polaris).
Again, its an informative commercial, it doesn't come straight out and say the Outlander is a much superior machine, it simply provides some pretty good visual evidence so a consumer may come to their own conclusions. The video isn't all about the drag race, pull, mud bog...it also does an excellent job of explaining some of the Outlander only unique features of this ATV. There is a great demonstration of the Viso-loc system, clearly this can't be challenged. There are also some great demonstrations of the TTI IRS on the Outlander, hard to argue anyone has a BETTER set up then this. The SST frame is a great innovation that others should consider. Nobody can question the reliability of the Rotax engines.[/q
Wonder why they didn't use a polaris to try that blocked left front wheel???Oh yes, since polaris can do the same it wouldn't make the bomb look any better>>

BFD, did you read my point at all? I stated the margin between these machines is farily small. Besides, I don't think they had to use that demonstration to make the Bomb look "better". I think the Kawi demonstration spoke for itself, much more convenient to not have to lock into 4WD just to get over a few stumps. I do believe the SP and Bomb utilize similar 4WD systems??

Yeah.....OK. I'm sure the Polaris, Kawi and Honda legal departments will have a ball with this one huh? Face the facts, the SP comes close but does not quite match up with the BRP 800. Whine, cry foul all you want, those are the facts, like it or not. They faked the drag race huh?
Why doesn't Polaris or Kawi do a challenge of their own then? Maybe they can prove BRP wrong and force them to remove that infomercial?? Highly unlikely.
Let me get this straight. A multibillion dollar corporation like BRP is gonna invest millions into a new ATV then "fix" a demonstration video to try and trick the general public? I guess its that old saying "if you can't run with the big dogs, accuse them of cheating".

Zorro, CaRider67 did say "up but under closer step motion on the DVD you can see the driver throw the sp800 handlebars to on side to run up the mud pit wall and slow it down to give the Bomb the time advantage and who knows what else was done in the other edited (light on /off) clips."
He didn't sound biased at all IMO. He is making valid points.
