I have a Kingquad 700 and can't say anything bad about it. There are several polaris guys on this site also, and I have talked to several people with the outlander 650 and they love them. I don't think you could go wrong with any of them.
Welcome to the site btw.

The power steering on a Grizzly 700 makes it worth considering, especially if you like riding rough stuff. If you can test ride a few models, take them each out in a rock garden and see which one makes you feel more in control.

Re: gonna buy new quad mama is taking mine
Curious why the 500 and 450 when you're looking at a 650 too? Might as well look at the 800 and 750, same size chassis, just bigger power, a man can never have enough power (OK, that Renegade may have enough ).roon101 wrote:hey i am gonna buy new quad i don't know what to buy going back and forth on polaris sportsman 500 and kingquad 450 and can am out lander 650 those are what i am looking at and every time i look i find somthing i do and don't like what do you guys recomend love the site by the way

On the small vs. large - we have a Grizzly 450 and a 660 (guess which one is mine...) and as much fun as the 450 is (it's like a sports car compared to riding the 660), I surely love the large amount of power the 660 has in terms of acceleration and climbing. I don't know the machines you're looking at, but I would opt for the most power you can afford.
Wish I had the 700's power steering - bigger tires = more effort. Bigger engine is also a big plus if you are going for real tires and wheels too.
Good luck!

Just tell them straight up. Look how the hell am I supposed to buy something I can't test drive before? This is a serious investment and one I'm ready and willing to make, and if you can't let me ride one, then why should i do business there? Hvae you tried asking the GM of the shop? I had a dealer pull that crap on me when I was looking to buy a new car. He told me no, so I went in and explained the situation to the GM, and sure enough they let me test drive it.
