The 700 prairie has absolutly no ground clearance i wen't to look at one 8" whats that? plus a solid axle whats that? and the price what the hell is that? not to mention it looks a little prissy to me! got to love those front end coil overs where'd they come from a yugo, totaly wimpy! just because it has a whopper of a motor doesn't mean it's the best, plus if you want speed get a sport quad not a utility! I also herd that the 700 tops out around 66m/h ive got a 500 that'll do 61m/h so whats the big stink for?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

yeah and the 600 sportsman won atv of the year, and the sp 700 won last year. that makes them the best i guess. its all about what you use the thing for, we need to stop bring up the mags because the like the brands that pay for ads. so lets stick to what we know about atvs. i've never rode a kawi 650-700 so i dont know about them. but i do know that my sp 700 works best for me. the best thing i can tell you is to test out all of them and pick the best for you.

Look at all the different ATVs that have won ATV of the Year. How can they all be the best? The best ATV is the one that fits your needs, budget, wants, and butt. It is everyone’s own opinion.

In my opinion, the best ATV every built is the Rubicon, ATV of the Year, that’s proof right there and no one can deny it, right? Aren't the magazines always right? Don't they know everything?

In one recent magazine shoot-out, some of the judges were new to ATVing; the magazine thought this would be a good point of view. So you follow what they say and you have more seat time than they do.

ATV of the Year, Best in Class, BFD. Doesn't prove a thing.

One ATV can't be the best at everything.

DANG, 5 pages of this BS!

First you have to seperate them into IRS or solid, those are 2 different machines IMO. Pick which you want.

MY opinion gives the ultimate for ME to P700 .. the Vtwin rocks.. it handles better than any big quad I know of.. can't beat it.

For IRS, you can't beat the AC650... the Vtwin rocks (did I say that twice? LOL!) and they have huge ground clearance, locker, racks with incredible capacity, great stock tires, etc etc ...

That's my .02

I'm not a fan of the Polaris 700 twin cylinder, it looks like trouble to me, and I'm not sure why they didn't just make a V...

Rincon is great all around but not the best at anything.

Grizzly is alright, tall, tippy, and compared to a P650 .. underpowered.

A LOT of it is preference...

thomez,

Polaris's Liberty Parallel Twin has been around for awhile in the snowmobiles as a 600, 700 and 800. The latter is why there is rumor for a Sportsman 800 next, it's the next logical step.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
