Polaris delivered many factory 525 Outlaws for the GNCC race today. Even Dirtwheels editor Cain Smead will be racing one for a review. Here's what was said at ATVriders.

Polaris has delivered several brand new Outlaw 525 machines with the high performance KTM engines, and these beast have some major get up and go, and with a 30 pound diet with the new engine, expect to see a few of these near the front of the pack in the morning especially with Cain Smead and John Gallagher behind the handlebars.

John Gallagher Sr with be representing ATVRiders.com on the Outlaw 525, and I had an oppurtunity to ride the all new Outlaw today, and it was a blast to ride through the woods. Not only does it have plenty of power, it appears Polaris has narrowed up the front end for 2007 because I seemed to be able to dice my way through the trees which ease, but I will check on the specs tomorrow to verify my speculation. The extra ground clearance of the Polaris Outlaw at the Ironman will provide a huge advantage because this track normally ruts up fairly quick and has some rock gardens as well along the creek bed.

So looking at this, they should be in showrooms very soon.

 

Good morning ge4x4 Hey I was talking to my polaris dealer yesterday about the 525 outlaw and he said that polaris is only making a limited production of these units and that each dealer is only to recieve one machine and they would not see it until around january does this mean that who ever wants one will not be able to get one if they ever wanted one? do you know anything of this? is this true?.................................thanks

 

This is one machine I'd like to get a bit of seat time on .. not sure how the irs will handle, but I know I can powerslide my beast of a sporstman on loose gravel .. really hate for it to hook up though ... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

Thanks for the heads up on that Bill .. hard to keep in mind when you're having so much fun, unfortunately ...

Have you ever done donuts in AWD mode on your beast? I've done it on mud flats near where I live ... maaaan .. what a rush!! It's almost like being on a spindle .. just goes round and round and round .. after 5 rotations I had to stop because I was getting too dizzy to hang on ..
