have to admit those 800's are damn fast for sure as it ate my buddys bf750 w/ ease. not to sure how he would do behind me in the woods as their was a bombie 650 behind me holding him up from catching me on our extremly short ride before his buddys other bombie broke the steering post right in half sending him full throttle in the woods. not pretty but hes still walking(limping)and talking. but he told me to take it for a ride but i declined. nice 9400.00 pretty heavty price tag.

 

I'd just like to try a SP700 or 800.

 

if you do sheep, you wont want to go back to the 500 lol.

 

What size was the Can-Am that broke the steering post?
Was he hard on the quad.........I mean pushing the limit of what it can do every ride?
..................Caper...................

 

i just met the guy. he came up w/ one of my co-works although i do beleave there hard on them. its one of those you can step thru instead of swinging your leg over. they always used it as the tow vechicle before now. lol.

 

How does it compare to a modded 400 4x4 Scrambler?
I (being the tight wade I am ) cant see that kind of cash for a toy.

 

hes had it up too 73 mpg and still hasnt opened it up yet. like i said he passed my buds brute force 750 no problem. i guess i'll stick to my heavy under powered 800 lol.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

I just saw that they also came out with a Renegade 500 in addition to the 800. They are definetly aiming at Polaris in my mind.

 

The 500 will be the same weight as the 800renegade, which sux.

 

June Atv rider magazine has the top speed listed as 63.27 mph. I don,t think that they would lie about that. The 525 Outlaw kicks it's butt in every catagory. And what is up with the 3 1/2 wheel drive that only engages after wheel spin. A guy posted a video on Visco lock where a polaris AWD went thru a tricky off camber mudhole with no problem and the Can am with Visco lock was down right DANGEROUS as the front wheel that had traction would finally spin and just about roll the atv over. I will stick with my 01 scrammy 500 that I only paid 3100 for it. I have raced CR500's for over 15 years and feel comfortamle going fast on it. I don't really feel safe on an overweight atv going 60 + mph. Even atv magazines are saying that the newer atvs are over powered for their limited handling ability at speed. I am new to the atv scene and am very happy with my scrammy. I have read posts about scrammy's doin 63 mph. I just bougt a GPS and will let you guys know how fast it really goes. I have listened to so many people say how fast thier bike or quad goes. It is funny when hear guys bragging that thier 80's will do 80 + mph. My cr500 will only do 90 on the hard pack dirt. It is not about the speed but the quality of the ride.
