They're awesome bikes... as long as you don't intend to win a race or do stunts without serious modifications. Polaris is good for old people or non-serious riders.

Now the chain adjustment bolts go directly into the swingarm housing and this is a better design? How long did it take them to think of that? Why don't they use an eccentric cam style bearing carrier like the rest of the industry? And what exactly is better about the air filter setup? Looks very identical to the Banshee's. Does anyone know if the calipers are single piston or dual piston? I haven't seen a good picture of that area on the quad.

First of all I am sick and tired of all you CHILDREN fighting over which is better. Shouldnt we all just be out riding and having fun? Most of you have a good quad no matter what kind it is, so ride the damn thing. All this BULLS**T talk is for the freaking WIMPS! As for WAROF87, get real, you must of been picked on when you were alittle tike. Hey I own a Polaris and love it, and if I had a Yamaha I would love it, honda I would love it, WHO CARES! GROW UP!

Ridzhard,
I'm with you, I dont see any improvement in the designs, unless they consider that you cant get the lid on without it being lined up properly? Unlike the Banshee whereas you can get the lid on without the filter mount being in the right place.
