Thumbs up Sportsman 800

I recomend the Polaris sportsman 800. I have one and it compares to nothing i've ever ridden. The polaris offers true 4 wheel drive with a flip of a switch while other brand you have to flip a switch then push a button to get the front differential to lock in. Did i mention that the time your stuck is when you'll try to engage the 4 wheel drive on the others and it won't engage because all other brands require that you move 5ft. or more for the front-end to lock in. You get stuck in a polaris all you do is stop spinning the tires and flip the switch which will automaticlly lock in 4x4 and your ready to go. If speed is another issue for you i've raced a gizzly and a brute force and kicked both their buts up and down the track all day. The sad part is the fact that the other riders were 75 lbs. lighter then me and i still wipped them with the sportsman. The stock tire and rims are unmatchable for being included on the total price. I've also tried alot of different brands of tires and really the stock polaris tires are maybe 3rd from the top of mud tires. Also When riding other brands i noticed the ride. Polaris was by far the smoothest riding atv of all. Of course this was a all around test from rocks to hills to plowed fields. The sportsman felt like a cadillac compared to others. If you like doing wheelies at all let me tell you how the sportsman will get away from you if your not careful. As far as options for polaris I sugest the glacier V-plow. Salty on price but really nice to have when pushing snow. The glacier system is incredibly fast to get on and off the atv. It is true when they say Polaris is the way out.

when you start to decide on a bike and you think one is big enough, find one at least 100 cc bigger and buy that one
