WHOA! Looks like a shootout with the Grizzly 660, the Prairie 650, and the Polaris 700 will be a reality!

Pic worked for me. There's no comparison in the looks department, grizz wins hands down, and 140lbs lighter!

Drrooool...

Great picture. Looks no different than SP 500. I like the small improvements of key start and cooling system tweaks. The weight is still a problem. But I would'nt mind having one next to my Grizzly and Kodiak!

guys guys guys,

I think they pulled a Cannondale on us. That pic is a fake. Look at it. Also look at the post in the Honda forum called Polaris 700?!?!?! If it is already for sale in Nahville don't you think Polaris would have mentioned it SOMEWHERE on their own site?? There is no mention of it anywhere not even on the 2002 model lineup.

You might want to check the polaris forum... a couple people seem to have spec sheets, 35mm photographes and stuff...

So maybe it IS real.

Although the pictures have disappeared

Kerplunk, how do you like your bearclaws? I have some ordered for my 01 kodiak. They should be delivered Friday.
Thanks, Mark

I love em'! 26" 9-12 fronts and 26" 12-12 rear. But the fronts do rub just a little on the winch when I make a full lock left turn. But no biggie. I seem to be one of few who had this problem, even with the same size tires most people are fine.

They wear good too.. I've been abusing mine for 2000km and they hardly look worn yet.

Now, I'm not sure if it's a fake pic or not, and I'm not getting into it, BUT just remember that Polaris also has a 2002 Polaris Scrambler 500X that is not listed on the webpage. They are currently for sale, and there are numerous people who own them.

Again, I'm not saying that the 700 is for real, and I'm not saying that it isn't. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
