polaris quads are fun until you hit a nice rock that goes straight up into that nice and conveniently low to the ground and up front radiator plus fan assembly. I dunno how many of them my grizzly 660 has towed home because they thrash that radiator and overheat. that was my biggest reason not to get a sportsman.

althou the scramblers are better about it. the magnums and sportsmans used to or still do have the fan on the front of the radiator which was even worse.

thanks everyone!


as for getting in and out..the only time i felt bad is when i brought my grandmother out to breakfastshe could not get in and out. me and my brother had to help her and and help her out...other then that, i just jump if needed

the sportsmans are pretty good quads insept for the one issue that I haver heard a number of times. This is my 3rd scrambler and I love them. it gets a winch, new clutch kit, drive belt, and chain + sproket kit next week...

if anyone is ever around here and wants to ride...let me know!

yeah it is the high output...i cant really tell that big of a difference to my old 500 but i guess there is....the big tires and fender flares slow it down a little bit though...

i just drove the new raptor 700 today at my buddys shop...they just got them in and they are BAD!!!!! bud its funny cuz my other friend has a suzuki 450 that will leave it behindits built!
