I have one in my garage, I've had it for one week and only been able to make two quick passes in my cul-de-sac, it feels great so far, but then you can't tell jack from two passes getting only in second gear.

After riding my buddies 700 i do believe it would take my 05x. It would be nice for bombardier to answer the700 with an 800 fuel injected with a turbo.

Dirt wheels said the outlander 800 goes 75 mph, and that is with 4 wheel drive, and a 700 pound or so dry weight. Imagine the 800 motor in a 400 or 450 pound package!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No reason a bike like that couldn't go 85mph right off the show room floor. A turbo on a package like that would be suicide on 4 wheels, heh heh. I just hope it would be a manual tranny, with chain drive.
