AND SOME PEOPLE JUST NEED TO GET IN THERE 5TH POST!



well greate for you, you have acomplished your goal and won your own mentale satisfaction!

 

sure it is

 

ATV TV hates anything that says Polaris on it, so thats not a surprise. They can bash the Polaris AWD system all they want but guess what, it works!
I swear, if you took a Polaris Sportsman and replaced all the Polaris stickers with Honda ones, that show would say it was the best thing ever made.
Ive seen it a few times and they really have the blinders on when it comes to brand bias.

this is a little late in the thread but did you ever flip a car end for end when you locked up your brakes. LOL LOL these are atvs .... not buicks here!!! the way the utes are going they will be 1000 + lbs soon. bigger bigger jhc they will have cruise control and heaters next!! im getting a wolverine soon, if it has single lever braking I WILL CHANGE IT IMMEDIATELY !!! i am experienced enough to know which brakes to use and when. if a person does not understand how to ride,have an experience RIDER show them. dont over engineer these overweight 700 lb beasts so a complete idiot could not possibly hurt himself under any given circumstance. this is how people get hurt on atvs....they buy machines they have no buisness being on and take them into very dangerous environments ,and get hurt. thank the manufacturers for putting fools on so-called foolproof machines!!!!!!

 

BryceGTX & linked brakes sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G....

Dude, some people do not like linked brakes, accept it! I am one of those. Sure they are safer for someone who cannot walk and chew gum at the same time, but since I am slightly more capable than that I can handle split brakes just fine and prefer them reguardless of what your Jeep has.

 

thanks for bringing a dead thread that no one wants back

 

I have been a motorcycle rider for 30 years now....and have a new BMW with linked brakes. Even though they are ABS brakes I don't like the idea. I would still rather have control over which wheel I brake. I also would rather have complete comtrol over how my braking system works on a quad. I've only had a quad for a year now (a grizzly) but I would rather have a separate braking system on a quad also for obvious reasons.....many of which are mentioned in earlier postings.

If any manufacturers are watching this site....why don't we simply have an option to switch between one system or the other at the handlebar? C'mon....at the prices we are paying for these new machines its not a huge request. It would make a quad more "generic" in terms of being better on flat ground, downhill, etc etc than any of the competition. We all know that different terrain requires different braking systems. Talk about something that would be a sales factor....geez!!!!

 

Ha.. Ha.. If you are fliping your quad endo.. It won't matter if you have spit brakes or linked.. In either case you don't know how to use the brakes. As I have said, split brakes are most important for manual clutch quads and bikes. For automatics.. it makes little difference. I haven't seen any manual clutch quads with linked brakes. But many automatics have them. For good reason.. They are safer. But it takes an experienced rider to under stand why. If someone does not know how to use linked brakes.. Have an experienced rider show him how to properly use them.

LOL, I can tell by this post that you are very capable. Teacher let you out of your first grade class early?
