What Utility Quad Would You Recommend?

[Mad Maxx]

Maint. & Reliability isn't much of a bother, I do all my own Work and take VERY good care of all my stuff, so it rarely Breaks.

But if there are Design or Manufacturing Flaws that cause Problems, that's one thing, but things that Break from Abuse aren't going to affect me since I don't Abuse my stuff.

Buy whatever one is made in America or has the most American parts if possible :unitedstates:



I know nothing about these things, but isnt having a bunch of grease fighting good? I know on Deeres EVERYTHING has a grease zerk and nothing has wore out, including wheel bearings

The bad thing for me is my OCD requirement to regrease anything that has been under water. After a few trips through the deep stuff, it get's old greasing all of them over and over. Sealed bearings make my life easier.

So I found 2 Can-Am Renegade 800R's, Brand New Closeouts for $6900/ea Out The Door. But I also Read about them having a Weak Frame, and that's DEF. something I don't wanna Deal with.

The Brute Force 750 has Overheating Problems when Pushed Hard or under a Heavy Load, and I don't like how it doesn't have Push Button Diff Lock. It has that little Trigger you gotta Pull and Hold.

The Polaris 850 XP really has it all, and I haven't found 1 Bad thing Said about it, other than the Weight, but that's a Good / Bad thing, so it Balances itself out IMO.

Youn can fix the frame problem on the can am with some skid plates....those are a must anyway.Ive never been a polaris fan but that 850xp looks like it would be alot of fun with plenty of power.If you end up with one you need to check out this guy.WWW. ATV-GURU.COM/. He makes some nice stuff for the polaris but the honda stuff dont work for me.Im a big honda fan but I agree that the bigger 4x4,s are nothing special for what they want for one,but I love my foreman.

 

[Mad Maxx]

Yep, already Checked Out the Guru.

Def. gonna be getting the Front & Rear Bumpers from him. They look sick, and Follow the Lines on the Polaris Perfectly.

 

[HemisAreSlow]

thats a hell of a deal on that renegade....if i had the cash i'd be making a tip down state

 

[Pepperidge]

Hey Mike...Don't Iron bull make bumpers for quads?

I'm sure James would want one

 

[HemisAreSlow]

lol...that would be nice....but at this time I do not believe we do

 

[Mad Maxx]

Only for the Rhino.

Looks like it's gonna be the Suzuki King Quad 750AXI for me.

They aren't like the Sport Quads where they are pretty much the same. The Utilities are TOTALLY different.

Got a good Price at the Dealer I went to Today, so I'm prob. gonna go with it. I'll Post up some Pics if / when I get it.

The OTD Price on the Polaris is just too much.

Let us know how you like it. I have a 2000 King Quad (300 CC) with only about 350 miles on it. Its a great trail atv and has done wonders for me but its not much on alot of work like plowing snow. Its air cooled and it gets hot at low speeds. I am sure the new King Quads are liquid cooled and will work hard. I like the independent suspension on them also.

Here it is! '09 King Quad 750AXi

I'll get a better Pic Tomorrow.

 

[HemisAreSlow]

very nice

 

[Mad Maxx]

I'll get a better one with my Digi Cam Tomorrow.

 

[SfcJones]

Did you consider the Kawaski's. The 650 twin has a nice setup

 

[Mad Maxx]

Yea, I looked at them all except for the Arctic Cat.

I Read that the Kawi Brute's have some Overheating Issues. But if they didn't, the Brute 750 would have been my Next Choice.

Here's a better Pic:

 

[BIGR]

Very nice

 

[Mad Maxx]

Wheels & Tires, Intake, Clutch Kit, and prob. some other Stuff I can't Think of now is already on the way for it.

What size tires and rims came stock?If you plan to get a winch you might look at the Viper winches.They are about half the cost as warn.
