this is my own opinion based on my OWN observations, at a local dealer, (no offense to u peeps who think otherwise) i think the quest's r the ugliest quads i have seen, they are b*tchen high cost(around 10,000 - 11,000 canadian) and the ride quality is horrible compared to my HO.
remember this is my opinion

The quest is also HANDS DOWN the best bike for side hilling. This bike would slid down sand at almost 70degree angles rather then roll.
I said all along that the quest 650 was the fastest ute quad. I pissed me off when i read the mags big bore shoot out and they gave the quest last place.
It should read.
1. Quest has the best brakes (Brembo Brake system.)
2. Quest has the best engine 650 Rotax Makes a ton of power.
3. Quest is the best in side hilling
4. In mud the quest will get you farther then anyother bike.
In mud the front diff and weight of the bike plus power pulls you thru anything. One Canadian mag has a mud pit and the only three bikes that made it thru were the quest, traxter(samething) and polaris 500HO.
So when i here crap like its the first to get stuck it makes me very upset.
As for the ride and for sporty riders i just had my first ride on a Polaris 700 and im very impressed. Sounds very cool and has tons of power. Not to mention a great ride. Only complaint is that its seems to narrow and hard to steer. Also love the Goodyear tires (Very cool.)
If I had to choose between the quest and 700 it would be hard but i would stick with the quest. I am very happy with it period.

I dont know about the mud part and Power part. My 700 is way stronger then my 650 quest..and for mud, the Sportsman 700 rips the 650 apart. I went through mud with my 700 that stoped the 650 dead! Blame the ground clearence and tires. 700 is king of the 4x4 section!! I'm not starting a war, just telling the truth because I have both!

*scratches head* how would the quest be better in thick goey mud, with less GC than a 700twin, the 700twin is a pretty good all around mudding machine, the quest will probly be stuck dead in the thick goey stuff, while the twin will probly have a chance, my HO goes through water rutted mud wholes all the way to the thick goey stuff, and still keeps on pullen itself out.
