You want the ultimate power the Grizz is the machine especially for immediate power and top end. It only ways 600lbs compared to the other big boys.
Oh ya and is is a tough like the kodiak. My buddy has a kodiak and ya it is a really nice machine and will kill a honda foreman but it won't touch a Grizz. But really who can, except the HO now, but its as heavy as a Tank and has lots of maintenance and repairs.
Hope we bring you over to the GRIZZLY side, like a rock baby.

Don't kid yourself...please. The Kodiak has way more throttle reponse and will flat outrun a sp500 as I have countless times. The sp 500 has a delay when you hit the gas and has to wind up but the Kodiak power is immediate. My buddy, who is a Polaris shop manager just got a Big Bear and is selling his yellow sp500 because it's flippy, top heavy and too big for tight WV trails. The sp is one of the best mudders around and a smooth ride to it's defense. Don't really know about the HO the but we are talking about two different classes anyway. The HO may have more power than the old SP's, but it still has the same limitations is size, weight etc.
