What would a company have to do to top the new King Quad? I think it is the state of the art. I wonder who and how they will top this great quad.

Bombardier has already done it if you discount the single-lever brake.

Remember here, there's more to a quad than just displacement. How do you know the Outlander 800 has topped the King Quad when it isn't even available to ride yet?

There are some people who have already bought it. The magazines already have test ride reviews out. It has handling to match.

I've been reading that it won't be available until August. Has anyone ridden one yet? Has anyone ridden one that has also ridden a King Quad?

Yes, there was a post I believe in the Bombardier forum about a ride that featured all the big-bores.

Yeah it's not the prettiest thing out there and I absolutely love my KingQuad, but there is simply no denying the Bomb's performance boys.

Not really. The speedo on that thing goes to 90. It's a superior machine to the KingQuad Kaze, but I truly believe the King to be the next best overall machine and a true beast itself. In the sport-utility segment, you can't think about having the meanest machine out there if you plan on buying one because there will always be something coming out that is meaner. If you like the King, buy it and enjoy the crap out of it and don't worry if it can be beaten.
