About 23.2 at the rear wheels. The cat 500 should be close due to the same engine but I would guess less. In comparison the King Quad has abot 25.4 hp. As for the cat 400 less than above.

the king quad have just 2.2 hp more than me? So its no a lot and what about difference in acceleration? I suppose the difference is negligible!


Can you give me the source of your hp number please?

Thanks for your reply!!

Default Question about vinson engine

Check out the dyno run's on other forums.

There is an old addage that there is no substitue for cubic inches and it holds true for CC's too.

Torque is what gets you moving, horsepower keeps you at speed....and that is the biggest factor when comparing motors. If your goal is to make a Vinson out power a bigger motor then you will end up spending way too much money. The best way to obtain the power in the vinson is to enlarge the motor to a 581 cc, add better carburation, exhaust in other words speed cost money...how fast you want to go?

If you want real speed dump the vinson and get a sport quad. That is the same reason bull dozer's are not seen at race tracks... ton's of torque power and gearing but no speed.

Utility quads go up against utility quads.... they are not desinged to race nor compete with a sport quad, A sport quad can have well over 50 hp at the wheels (that is where a dyno performs the measurement).

What's your goal? Is it speed? Power? I have seen you have asked the same questions on multiple forums. If you are waiting for someone to give you a magic answer for more power.... ummm let me think well okay......... nitrous. You will get more power, speed and performance but it will not last nor will the motor.

Once again repeat after me ..... Speed Costs Money. Maybe you should have purchased a sport quad.

thanks a lot for your reply!

I am just clarify something, my goal is just to compare my atv with king quad an others. I dont want to modify my quad.

I want to know if the performance of the king quad is a lot superior of my atv? Its because we are a lot of time two passengers on the quad and the perf decrease considerably. Then, the SRA is good for sprt but not for the confort with passenger. Its what i want to compare my atv with king quad!!

I want to have review of the owner like you they have alraydy ride vinson and king quad. for exemple, on drag race between these two quad to 60 mph how many quad lenght (approx) difference?

thanks a lot!!!

p.s Sorry for my english....i am frenchman !!!!
