Overall, I am disappointed with the polaris 07 lineup. Yes, the Outlaw with the KTM engine is going to haul a$$, but yet once again the scrambler gets bold new graphics. I hope the Pred eventually gets one of the KTM powerplants(450 or 510). I also noticed Polaris dropped the Magnum 330 for this year, but yet they don't have a replacement mid size atv with a solid rear axle. I guess the market is moving towards the IRS party. I wish Polaris would actually inform as to what exactly is "active descent control." Is is just 4 wheel engine braking or something more advanced? I feel they are charging way too much for the deluxe models. They have made some small changes but what about the reliability of the SP500efi, phoenix, and Hawkeye. I wish polaris would also address the cheap boots they use on the sportsmans. They have made some small changes to their lineup, but Polaris still needs a lot work in order to catch Honda in atv sales.

Here's some pics guys. I didn't have a real camera, just a little digital in my pocket so forgive the quality.

Not very comfortable, but in all fairness that's not what it's built for. Well, let me repharase that... It's a lot smoother than the Predator or Raptor, etc, but it's nothing like a Sportsman. If it was, it would bottom out like crazy.

an outlaw with irs with a ktm 525 motor in it sound all wrong to me,more weight,less sporty and a waste
of handling,my 2 cents...
you realize how light and powerful KTM motors are? less weight and more sporty is for sure. the KTM 525 motor makes enough power to annihilate any 450 to 700cc motor in the quad market..... unless polaris fudges it up and detunes the motor like all dirtbike motors seem to be when they go to 4 wheels.

The 07 Outlaw is the same weight as the 06 439 lbs. the 07 525 Outlaw is 395 lbs the difference is the engine the Polaris 500 is a very heavy engine.
