i would take a 350lb Yami YFZ450 over a 439lb Outlaw. a lot more fun throwing around only 350 pounds!

Yami makes a nice quad but the outlaw keeps the drivechain and sprocket up in the frame and out of the mud....IRS would be better with the stump filled hills I travel on.....4x4 is nice but a good 2wd(recon, even z400) will amaze you in what mud they can go thru
i think the extra 90 pounds (350 vs 439) would be a lot of extra baggage to be carrying around on a sport quad. maybe if it was a Ute comparrison i would feel differently. i do understand your IRS argument though. well made.

FYI the new Outlaw will only weigh 395 lbs vs the 396lb raptor and the 350 lb yfz.....until the preditor 450 comes along @ 361 lbs......

The price is high, but if you want to have a aggressive quad to stay with your sport buddies, but then hit the mud holes, this quad will be the answer. Yes the $9299 msrp is over $3000 more then the Scrambler, but it would take much more then that to answer the call. The Renagade has 62hp while the Scrambler has 36hp. How much money would it cost to get 62hp out of a 500? I can't wait to try one.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Also with this quad, you don't have to do a thing to it once you get it. It has the power, the suspension, the tires, the ground clearance, and a nice 3 year warrenty. A 3 year warrenty is about $400-$500 for any other make, so the MSRP would be around $8799-$8899.

Why not just wait for the outlaw 525, 7200.00 compared to 9400.00, I would bet the 525 will be a better machine and faster.

people dont want to wait because the renegade is a 4x4 rather the outlaw being 2x4. its just stuck in peoples minds that 4x4 ultimately means more traction (which is true, but people dont realize what 2x4 can do) of course i cant really say anything about all this because i drive a Jeep [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] i do have a predator though [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

The Outlaw is supposed to have 61 horsepower.....and be 200 lbs lighter than the renegade.....I would prefer the Outlaw.

If you have the 400 Scrambler then yes you can get more then 62hp out of the motor an get shocks for $3000 an be light then stock when done. An yes I do know they do not make a 400 scrambler anymore but there still out there.
