2009 Polaris Outlaw ATV

[jrdragracingkid]

Is it just me or do these ktm motors really suck? I bought a brand new 2010 polaris outlaw 450mxr and i have blown 2 up in less than 5 months. its been at the dealer getting fixed for half of that time.. Everything is always on back order.. does anyone else have a problem with these??

[philtripe]

they make the old one sound like junk...they're like yeah we stopped using the easy blow head gasket and the ever slip clutch,and new for 08 we decided not to use the self popping tires

[HelmetCamHero10]

the new ones look so much nicer than the 08's although i have an 08, I buying a 2010 to race.

[cgarcia1125]

I have the 2010 Polaris 525 S Outlaw. Man, this quad rips.

[darkspartin182]

Old model is more beast looking!

[0000084595]

I dont know dude both look sick the 08's look tough tho

[mrkittycat110]

old ones look way better

[tmaxxinator]

The old one's looked cooler.....

[tmaxxinator]

Old one's look way cooler.

[justingoehring]

Wow, I can finally take polaris somewhat seriously now! If only they could design their own engine.

[polarisnuthead22]

So THIS is the asshole who raped the outlaw lineup for 2009!! This guy is a flaming idiot for redesigning that front end! The predator and 06-08 outlaws look so badass and these new things look like pussy machines! More incentive to keep my predator in good shape so i dont have to buy one of those ugly pieces of crap lol

[walston410]

man i have yet to see anyone with that new 09 450 mxr that thing looks sooo badass

[flugin2008]

and on the new one were the handle bars come out of the plastic looks too long and makes it look weird

[flugin2008]

i still think the older ones look better even though they are a little bit slower

[freexfreestyle89]

bad ass

[broc212]

My name is BROC!

[XxXQuadRacer61]

How is it on the track is it comparable anyone know or have this machine please respond asap

Thanks , this looks leggitt !

[SlimTwisted]

@XxXQuadRacer61

Google the review on ATV Source or ATV Connection, it seems the 2009 Polaris Outlaw 450 MXR has been doing very well in the media. Then again it is the same motor package as the beloved KTM 450 XC (just with reverse and a much lower MSRP).

[erik335]

how does this thing stands aganist the ktm and suzuki?

Im between those 3

[SlimTwisted]

@erik335

It is the same as the KTM 450XC (the KTM 450 SX has the dual cam engine)- The chassis shares dimensions as well with goodies like hydraulic clutch and steel-braided brake lines. Polaris went with Fox Podium X suspension all around rather than Ohlins. Otherwise it's not quite as fast as the Suzuki LTR-450 out of the box but can be just as competitive with a less restrictive pipe. I've raced my 09 450MXR all year and couldn't ask for more.

[fox13z400]

wat quad is at 2:05 cause thsi quad has an after market exhaust and nerf bars and a diffrent rear grab bar.

[sveinungj]

dont you hear what he say? 2009 outlaw 525 irs

[fox13z400]

i though tthats wat it was. but still that quad wasnt stock

[poopinaskunk]

its the 09 irs

[fox13z400]

yea bu tlike i said that quad isnt stock. i no wat size it is though

[knowxvill]

ive got a question to anyone who knows, whats the topspeed of the 2009? cant seem to find....

[larsen550]

I really want an '09 but all I have now is enough for an '07 IRS 525... Fuck

[jamespollesel]

is there any way to change the body work from the 08 to the 09 meaning plastics and lights

[yamaharider520]

thats a lot of fucking suspension travel!

[Kratos2203]

outlaw 525 black 08 is better

[xAlexburnsred]

the ONLY thing i dont love about this quad are the handlebars, fuckin shitty.

[prowler10393]

fuck that piece of shit. that thing has been around since like 04 or 05 and it hasn't had any significant changes yet...if it wasn't for the massive aftermarket and factory support that quad would have died before it got started.

same reason the 250R was successful because the aftermarket supported honda mostly.

hondas are jokes from the factory. END OF STORY

[QUADsK8ER97]

they coulda just did the new looks and take away the 6 pounds for the 450 for the racers...they didnt have to ruin that 525 irs..at first i was gonna get a 525irs but now im not cause they look like shit....and that steering is way too high..whoever agrees wit me PLEASE comment.

[QUADsK8ER97]

ugly 09s 08s were better!!!!!!!!!!

[QUADsK8ER97]

ugly

[imspeeddeamon]

wow you really screwed yourself on this one didn't you. You really think that 6 lbs is woth it. with this look you ruined one of the best looking atv's on the market now it's just like all the other crap out there. So what are you going to do next to make it worse.

[residentevillord]

i dont like the look of the new out law. when u here pred or outlaw thats what u thought (old look) now they look like shit

[ariel4more]

Is anyone stupid enough to think that a 6 pound weight saving is going to make a shit of a difference? If so, let me be the first to tell you, YOUR A RETARD!!! The new model looks like total shit. They said they reworked the steering for less bump steer? Why not just bring back the pro steering they had on the 03-06 predator.

[prowler10393]

from what ATV sport said in the woods 450 shootout, taking the pro steering away actually hurt handling worse than thought. well my pred handles nice without it but who knows that outlaw is a different frame, etc....

well 6 pounds makes a difference if you're racing...other than that no it isn't much haha

[ariel4more]

I have an 07 pred, and god do I wish I had the pro steering. It gets very twitchy at higher speeds. On the trails, it corners very well, but on the rough, rutted trails, I end up all over the place. I think it may just be that I need to adjust the suspension.

[prowler10393]

my pred gets twitchy at top of 5th gear as well but i don't care...i like a bike that lets me know i'm there...at first it was a little scary because i never went that fast on a quad and i never had a quad with enough power to throw the ass end around with like 20% throttle lol

there is very little adjustment in the front suspension so good luck lol. the rear shock's only problem is too much preload.

[ariel4more]

I do think the rear is my problem. I weigh around 175, any adjustment suggestions? Also, if I soften the rear shock, will it be harder to keep the front end down when I stab the trottle?

[prowler10393]

well right now my shock is at the lowest preload setting and i can't remember how many turns i got for compression in the reservior...i weigh 155 and it's still rough at slow speeds. i do know i got my rebound and compression adjustments to match eachother though. i did some small jumps in my yard and set it up for my weight.

i don't have problems keeping the front end down if i lean foward a little. just be sure not to crack it open without leaning on pavement

[ariel4more]

I don't really do much jumping, I just mainly trail ride. I'll try playing with it this weekend. Thanks for the advise.

[prowler10393]

oh by the way, the rebound screw is at the bottom of the shock near the mount to the swingarm, the compression one is hard to get to and you might have to take off a sidepanel to reach it ( no big deal ). they don't got clicks so just remember how many turns you put on it

[QUADsK8ER97]

i hate the new outlaws, they look retarted especially that steering...the 08s were so much nicer

[Sprchrged04]

they listened too much to the "pro" riders. you are selling the product to the consumers not the factory racers!

[horkan18]

i agree!

[Chickenliver324]

if the pro riders wanted it they should of made it from them not for every one else now from now on thats the only shit we are all gonna get if we want a new outlaw

[daddymathews]

I have an original 525 ,black..and i gotta say ..i wouldnt wipe my ass with that ugly turd..they fukd up

[AllGoodThingsGoBraap]

I sure hope Eric Nault goes on you tube and reads all the comments about people sayin how its ugly

[AllGoodThingsGoBraap]

Eric please realise that that is fuckin ugly. Please please go back to the 06, 07, 08 plastics, it also looks cheap with that plastic and shitty bumper

[produner1]

ugly

[ROBERTCHARLO]

the 2008 design looked better

[hotquader2013]

2:55, its a 525 you dumbass! NOT A 450!!!

[taylor19091]

thats a 450 you fucking idiot

[hotquader2013]

not it aint u fucking idiot!!

[polarisnuthead22]

eric nault SHOULD BE FREAKIN FIRED IF HE IS IN CHARGE OF THE OUTLAW LINE UP!!!!!!!! THE 2009 OUTLAW DESIGNS SUCK NOW THAT HE GOT RID OF THE MEAN FACE FRONT LOOK!!!!

[prowler10393]

i heard how they dropped 6lbs off of it and made it look racey. then i saw the quad and was disappointed. hopefully taking off the light and putting a sweet looking hood on it will take the shittyness of the nose. they could have lost alot more weight with the old style by using lighter and stronger A arms and a rear swing arm and making all the bolts one style. but that's too much R&D when they released the all new sportsman xp the same year

[ROBERTCHARLO]

no shit relly they suck

[hotquader2013]

damn straight! i got the 2008 and a guy with a o9 wanted to trade and i said hell no i dont want that ugly piece of shit!! lol

[huron122]

that plastic looks dumb...not gonna lie.

[ngkdarkbandit]

the 09 looks gay

[cjk247]

the o8's do look a hell of alot better! the 09's look awful and im a polaris fan.

[Protege36]

The customer really wants fuel injection and aluminum frame!

[ROBERTCHARLO]

fuck the 2008 is way better than the 2009 the front end looks gay

[NashatAbuS]

the outlaw 525 2008 is best than this damn peace 2009

[zrsullivan16]

It doesnt even look like an outlaw it looks more like a redesign of a honda 400 trx I'am extreamly disapointed

[codedog04]

I was really disapointed when i found out this was the 2009 model i'd pay more for the 2008

[codedog04]

The 2008 model and even the 2007 models are wayyyy more aggresive/meaner , cooler looking then this new ugly piece of shit

[ENRIQUELOZA18]

THE 2008 MODEL DOES LOOK A LOT BETTER

[michaelmagielse1988]

fuck you the 2008 model is mutch better

[Protege36]

Looks pretty sweet. Im pissed Yamaha didnt really do shit there models this year.

[outlaw525irs]

Because YAMAHA IS GAY

[Protege36]

Lol. Yeah Yamaha is gay and Polaris is the shit right? Lol. Thats what I would say too if I was threatend by a better brand.

[jfacFAN1]

better? how?

faster? LOL

no.

more reliable? well i had a wolvy and it shitted on me, but my 95 scrammy has been running good since i got it....sooo...

[hotquader2013]

i think that polaris pucked themseles over on this one . not gonna lie

[jfacFAN1]

why?

[hell086]

It looks great! Lighter/stronger sounds nice great job I think.

[laxplayer2116]

it looks toi much like the ktm i like the old 2008 but the heel guards and other upgrades are nice

[sheriff525]

at the 2:06 mark it shows the IRS with a different pipe. Is that the stock pipe?

[horkan18]

i dont like the look of the new outlaw, but polaris is doing a nice job on making there racing atvs lighter/faster/comfortable.
