well i'm letting go of the DS650 due to no time to go to dunes or the river....thinkin on a big bore 4X4. i recently read that the polaris 800 outran the zuki KQ in a drag, and KQ was the main quad i was lookin at, that and the brute force. so i guess my question is is the polaris 800 the fastest 4X4?

 

no brute force 750 is

 

GET A BRUTE FORCE!!! Easi8ly the most intense 4x4 on the market. The Popo is only actually 10cc bigger than the 750 (The B.F. is 749cc. the Popo Is only 760 cc.)The Polaris is great if you want a work machine only , if you want a versatile machine get the BRUTE.!!!!

 

i love my 800, not as sportie as i wish it was, i have remorse for not getting a predator like i originally thought. but the ground clearence is the best, and theres no better suspention. the 4x4 is iffy, and the motor rocks. i have dragged 750's on dirt and i have to say that of the 9 times ive done it, ive only beat them 3 times and it was just by a hair. my 800 also stomps out honda 250 MX bikes, which is fun to see. in a hookup though, with the 800 in low, theres no more torqier engine then the 8.



but if your into high adrenaline stuff like me, want to jump crap, corner tightly and all that stuff. a Sport Utility IS NOT for you.

 

well thats good to head...i think the brute will be the best option for me, basicly i want a quad that will mud, tow, climb, and haul A$$ when needed...i have rode the kawi 700 V-twin and was really impressed, thats what convinced me that the DS wasnt for me anymore...so im kinda new to 4X4 modding, what is your guys first mod? im guessing exaust but i may be in the dark...thanx for the replies.

 

I'd consider Polaris but I can't stand their 4x4 system and that idiotic single brake lever. If their SP800 had a normal selectable 4x4 system with a front diff lock and normal front and back brakes then I'd seriously consider buying one. Their positively *** ugly styling I could probably live with if they had the mechanicals straight but for the love of Pete Polaris either lose the goofball brakes and 4x4 system or at least offer the option of a normal configuration.

 

The Sportsman 800 is the best mudder you can buy and does well on the trails too.
Its a work horse with lots of storage and was actually faster than the BF to 20 mph, overall the BF is faster but not by much.

The BF is not the best trail or sport machine, its tippy and the Prarie 700 or KQ would be better for pure sport and trail rining.

Look at all the premium options (wheels, tires, work lights etc....) you get on the Sportsman 800 including EFI and thats a biggie.

i am going with you jimmy--

the brute force you ride it and will end up under it on the corners it is very tippy the king quad is a sweet machine but the 800 has more toys straight from the factory and it is a stable machine with good power delivery

 

i understand what your saying but i still think the brute is best for me...first off, the goodies that the popo can come with straight from the factory dont impress me enough to want one...im the type to want all those things, but i also want different styles and what not. and im not worried about the tippiness because im not really plannin on haulin serious *** through trails. well...i guess the popo is impressive, but i have just always said i would never buy a polaris...a friend had a 500 H.O. and i just dont like how they sound, how they drive, had decent power, but i just didnt like the overall feel of it. its just not for me. than for the opinions though. i like hearing everyone dispute over quads, not the "Which quad is the best in the world" disputes, but i liked how you guys were disputing over which was better for me...thanx again.

 

i think your best bets are hte brute force and the SP800. now you should go and ride both to see what you like. i tried the brute and didnt care for it much, the V-Twin didnt have that rumble that the side-by-side piston design. though you'll be able to get ALOT more aftermarket power from the brute force as their makeing a 840cc kit and since its carbed you can increase the power alot easier and cheeper than these EFI's. though not haveing to wait for the motor to warm up is something nice [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
