Twin cylinders are the way to go. They should have a 600 and an 800. Drop the 700.

Theres really ALOT I can say, but to put it short, I am a BIG GUY too, 360 lbs 6ft and
trading in my 450 on this one was a good move. The safety features of EBS/ADC and
its other parts and features make it ride better and make it safer and me feel safer to.

Okay the BIGGIE here is I like how it does UPHILL. It crawls without NO Hesitation.
I couldn't say that about my 450 I could feel it on certain steepness and what
not, NOT that it was bad, it did its job fine, but this thing is a MONSTER!

Happy 800 owner! Ohhh and its STENDORI's fault too, that CULT leader! LOL

Smooth predictable low end power is what sold me on my 800. Then there is the get up and go that it has, along with the top end, ease of riding, sound, Ride, and.... Well I have to get ready for a fishing trip, so that is all you get this week. Off to Rainy River.

firehog, thanks...the wolverine is a great quad. I'm very happy with it. The HMF pipe is loud for sure, but it sounds great and gives a big power increase. The wolverine was my first time modding a quad, so I wasnt sure what to expect for power gains...to say the least, I was happy with the results.

I have been thinking about tearing into the RZR motor, but I think I will keep it stock until the warranty expires.

I dig the razr too! I love the rims, wish they made them for my 800, but don't...yet. Oh well! I've seen some mod'd razr's go, much faster than my rhino was, and better looking imo!

The thing I love about my 800 is the confidence I have climbing steep hills. I'll take this thing up hills that I never would have taken my scrambler up. It is heavy and big but that just makes it a tank that will take down anything. The only other machine out there that i would have bought was the Can-am 800. My buddy has one and he can smoke me in a drag race but we can hange together in the woods all day long. I would love to see these to go head to head with comparable weight. I'm about twice his side and a Sporty is heavier than it to beguin with. Does anyone know what the rev limiter is set to. I had mine up to 70mph and almost 7000rpm I was just wondering if the speedo was maxed out an i wa going faster than that.

70 mph sounds about right.
