ever notice how when someone is trying to show off a quad, they put it up against the grizzly to make theres look so good but they dont put it up against the canam outlander or the kawasaki brute force

@BAMITsJACOB

They did against the CanAm.

I would like to see them use the same cc motor and not ones that are different. That would seem fair to me

[khower]

@78megachevy

I see what you are saying, but the point of the video was to show Polaris' largest cc quad...against the competition. So that was the point, to show Yamaha didn't have an 800 or 850.

Ok where is the 800 Outlander??? Instead of apples to oranges go apple to apple but we know poor alice wont compare.

@gjlavers

It's there.

this is bull!!!!!! everybody knows that yamaha could beat that 4-wheeled thing they call a quad any day of the week as long as craparis doesnt rig the test

[thumper54505]

@rockman12367 i agree with u, we should just ride. and that every machine has problems. my favorite brand is yamaha, but im not saying it wont break down once in a while. every quad has its pros and cons, these tests just show the pros.

Piece of Junk. Funny they don't mention it weighs 150 lbs more than a Grizzly (Hence the better traction for pulling the sled, who pulls weight sleds anyway?. The CVT eats belts faster than the Grizzly. How about the brakes? 3 brakes on Sportsman, 4 on Grizzly. The on demand blows compared to On Command. And before the fan boys start yapping, I have both sitting in my garage right now, ask me which one is more reliable. It isn't the Polaris.

I just bought a Touring 850, i love it! These Grizzly boys are an interesting bunch. Go out and ride any ATV, just ride something. I would have more fun on a 250cc 4x2 than most of these babies would on any big bore. I got the 850 because I like the comfort and it has a very good 4x4 system. My wife and I also wanted a 2 seater. That rules out the Grizzly. It was also nice to support an American company, though that was just a bonus.

do i own either atv "or any for that matter" no, do i understand engines, yes...

a bigbore if im not mistaken is anything over 600cc per cyl... so if the sportsman is 850 2cyl then its 425cc each which IMO removes it from the "big bore" catagory... the griz is 686cc single jug

im pretty sure if both atvs are given equal oppertunity to perform they will do just fine in real life scenerios id rather see them perform in various terrain "sand, dirt, grass, gravel" where it is likely to be used

"lets head out the the sportsman shootout" id like to know if the guy that was saying all that shit about these quads can even ride one.....i would like to punch him in the fucking face.

@thumper54505 indeed, i just hope more people agree with us lol
