I have to admit, it felt good to see my Grizzly at the top of this list. I was about to get the Sportsman 1000 but it came down the dealer experience. I’m totally happy with my ATV choice. 👍 Theses are all great machines, as are so many more. Well done, man. Fun to watch.
King quad 750 has great build quality and long term reliability ...its fast and smooth for every need you have. But to each his own..I've owed a few bikes on this list...all were pretty good.
@@brianspader1162 Thanks man! I didn't think you were butthurt, I like hearing from dudes who like their machines and why they like them.. I try to use that feedback in my vids whenever possible..
VERY underrated. Yamaha makes GREAT machines, but doesn’t seem to get much love in the ATV community. People will soon come to realize one day. Mark my words!
Our ranch pole barn had a concrete berm across the doorway to keep water out. One of the first lessons i ever learned about ATVs was zipping into the barn and crushing my toes between that berm and the steel footpeg on our Yamaha moto4. I remember that lesson every time i see a machine without the full footwells.
I've got the XTR now, it's freaking awesome. Rode the 850 , immensely powerful but completely unusable power in the woods. The Grizz has loads of torque too and its build quality really is second to none. Having Duel brakes is a pretty big advantage too since most single action breaks are rear biased and can get you some serious trouble if you aren't careful
@Michael Patrick I'm used to go mine looks. But it looks better now that I put 27x10 zillas on all four corners. It was a tough decision for me because the grizz did look better on the showroom floor but the v twin won out.
@@edwardcampbell3420 grizzly has more ground clearance arched a arms better lights better tires better power steering better 4wd system better warranty more storage space lighter and better on gas and more suspension travel...sooooo lol
This bearded chubby fellow, agree's with this list. But thinks D.O might be missing out on one of the best trail cruising machines. I personally have a soft spot in my heart for the KQ 500, I personally have found KQ's in general to be very smooth riding/engaging running machines. It may not make the hair stand up on your neck, but it will treat you right on a long day's trail ride. Just my 2 cents. Love the video's as always.
I’ve owned several EPS Brutes and an Outlander 850. Love them for what they are. Also owned arctic cat (don’t want to discuss that) and had terrible experiences with Polaris. Polaris may have gotten better since the last ones I’ve owned but couldn’t go back after multiple issues across several quads. I now have a 2019 Grizzly 700 SE with clutch mods, tuner and exhaust and is phenomenal. As far a trail machine it’s incredible. It’s the Swiss Army knife of atvs! At the end of the day, you need a Gruzzly for general trail riding and ANY twin cylinder from Can-Am/Polaris/Kawasaki for just all out grins. Confucius say - Man need Grizzly for trails, Man need twin cylinder for thrills. Buy both, it’s the secret to true happiness.
Yep I hear you loud and clear! Currently have a 2004 Arctic Cat 400 4x4 (wish I didn’t) a 2018 Sportsman 570sp (its great looking but weakly built imo) that Im about to sell and just picked up a brand BF750 that is a monster! Debated between this and the Grizzly 700, but went with this. Yamaha offers more trim pieces with the XTR model, but those are impossible to find.
Artic Cat and Polaris machines are considered junk here in my area, don't make the mistake of buying either of these brands because of some guys bragging video!! You might be sorry if you do!
I was 6'1, 300+ lbs on a Honda Recon going up the backway to CrownKing, AZ back in highschool. I never once needed more power. Gear selection, for me, is absolutely essential when trail-riding and rock-crawling. Eitherwise you only get a fraction of the power in each gear.
Just got a 2012 850 outlander road it a couple of times but having trouble with the fan not turning on and it getting hot. any ideas I got another fan plugged it in and the same thing the fan will not turn on??
Thank you I appreciate you getting back to me I already checked the relay so I will check the temperature gauge as it goes into limp mode with high temps...
@@DirtObseXXion king quad is still way better than the Honda in every way. Even as far as reliability goes if Honda is more reliable it’s by a very small margin just like Yamaha. And definitely more reliable than the Polaris and Can-am. I do have a question I used to own an outlander 570 and it put out so much heat on my left leg even at higher speeds I found myself always riding with my left leg hanging off trying to cool it off. Is that anything that you guy’s experienced?
@@appaloosaman9616 Yes absolutely.. Outlanders run WAY too hot.. It's because they're too lean.. We put a dobek style fuel optimizer on ours and add some fuel across the rpms.. Solves the problem completely
@@DirtObseXXion thanks for the reply and the info. I’m in the market for a new quad and have been having a really hard time deciding on what to go with this time. They all have things I like and things I dislike, but if I can fix the heat issue with the can-am that might tilt the scale back in their favor a bit. Thanks again I always enjoy your video’s.
@@appaloosaman9616 Yeah most modern machines are going to have heat issues. The best thing about the Outlanders is that they punch up in power. A 570 Outlander has 700 class power and the 650 Outty will out perform 700s in terms of power. The Outlander 650 is one of the best bangs for the buck in my opinion (depending on what you're prioritizing)..
Definitely solid choices. I definitely think the Polaris, Sportsman 570 Should get a fair shake. The 570 has become a very reliable engine and the actual ride is pretty legendary. They're 2021 model Is a pretty incredible machine.
Grizzly 700👍🏻👍🏻 I was surprised to not see the kingquad 750, it’s comparable to the grizzly 700. And interestingly enough, the two grizzly 700 in our moose hunt group, didn’t want to pull the moose out,..no worries, kingquad took care of it🍻🤷🏼♂️🤙🏻
The kingquad is a good machine for sure, but this video was about trail riding specifically.. The Grizzly handles quite a bit better and is less clunky than the KQ.. All personal preference though, both great machines.. 👍
I’ve rode both the king seemed way smoother in every way the engine don’t vibrate near as much way easier to switch gears ,The Yamaha does do better at high speeds though, but this new King is hard to beat Suzuki has stepped there game up big time
Was Yamaha Rider all my life, couldn't beat them. Last year bought a CF Moto 800 and I couldn't believe how good of a machine it was for the Price. I clipped a tree doing 74 with it early in this spring. And then after insurance was done I got another one and still to this day I've never had a better ATV than my CF Moto 800 XC. Just bought my wife
Wife a uforce 1000. She loves it. I have 30-in cryptids on both machines. And a clutch kit in both. Shocking how responsive both of them are I can stand up my $800 anywheres great great machines. A friend of mine has a Can-Am 800. Can't imagine spending that much for basically the same machine and mine doesn't break down. die hard CF Moto fan now.

I've ridden both but not back to back.. I prefer the Grizz myself because it feels more agile, I like the EPS, and the Ergos are just more familiar to me.. That doesn't mean it's the right for everyone.. If you like the KingQuad better, that's awesome! I do think the KQ has a bit more power and I love the footwells on it.. KQ is super solid..
We own a Polaris Honda and just sold a 350 Yamaha it was old so we are buying a 450 Yamaha and we have a kids raptor 700. Also this has to be one of the most underrated channel ever
Honestly people say this a lot but, I sincerely mean this is an amazing video! It shares to a more broad range, realistic crowd. Well done! I have watch many of you’re videos and enjoy them all. This is an under rated with not near enough followers as it should have. Keep up the good work!
Great list! My Raptor 700R and Kodiak 700 EPS have both been incredible. You will run out of suspension performance & rider ability on a Grizzly long before power for fast trail riding. Agree that the Can Am 650 is criminally underrated. It is the hidden gem in their lineup. The Rubicons look badass, 518cc be damned, they still look great. The higher trim Rubicon pricing is a bit suspect though, for what you’re getting...
I got a 2016 SE Grizz ... thing is built like a tank. Like you said not the fastest quad out there but with a few mods you can squeak a little more performance out of it. Perfect for trail riding... BTW nice vid bud.
I had a 16 Grizz too, that was me in the mud hole with it.. I loved that thing and I definitely think the Grizzly is awesome! Thanks for checking out the vid!
These are all great but for me Polaris are more comfortable over long have a Honda now and can’t argue with the reliability but a lot of our rides are 100 miles sometimes more and the Polaris is so comfortable
You got that right, I have a Sportsman 1000 and I've done 300 miles in 3 days.. Not many other machines id want to do that on! Thanks for checking out the vid!
I’ve had the Yamaha Grizzly 660 for 18 years now. Never burned a belt. 2500 miles mud water rock sand and anything else. It goes great. But what got me here was “sure it may not reach 80 mph but that doesn’t matter on the trails” I don’t know how the 700 doesn’t reach 80 because my 660 maxes out at 65 😂 no hate tho big fan. I hate that I don’t see a lot of Grizzlys on the trail anymore.
@@DirtObseXXion they are very fast especially for trail riding. It sucks that everyone is either on a can am or a Polaris. Not enough people are on Yamahas anymore.
my yfz450r is quit the trail monster! 51in rear wheel width makes this bike so damn stable while ripping through turns. plenty of power at any rpm makes this quad very fun.
That’s all good for youthful riding that might keep you from becoming an old guy like me one day should your ride end abruptly. This old guy prefers the utility of his Honda Rancher 4x4 with power steering and it ms utility and towing capabilities make it practical for us old guys who have better things to do then sling dirt lol, ride safe kiddos!!
Great video brothers and I’d say y’all nailed it and I have to agree that 650 is underrated and I know for a fact it’s a bad ass machine. Damn good video 🤘🏻🤘🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸
I wish my local trails were suited to a raptor. I've always wanted a Raptor, and I know I'd love riding one, but we have huge boulders everywhere, and where it's not rocky we have peat bog. No 2wd's or chain drive solid axles here.
That’s the way I should have done it haha, I shouldn’t have ordered them. What a coincidence, uploading two “ranked” ATV vids in one day haha! You made a good list, I don’t have any disagreements with it!
Dirt ObseXXion shoot, I need to start taking my time with them. I had the idea for a couple days and got everything wrote up in about a day and had it filmed in an hour. I like the way you did yours better though, I’ll write that down!
My Polaris 570 Sportsman SP has plenty of power on the trails and for pretty much anything I need. I don’t even know why you would spend 12 to 14 grand on a 1000. This should have made your list. Very very popular quad.
You are in the middle of the woods and have 1 gallon of gas left. Now which one is your pick? When I ride with my buddies on the trails we are typically 30mph or less so speed isn't a big factor. However they are looking pretty nervous after a few hours running the 700cc + bikes while my rancher 420 and foreman 500 still have plenty in the tank. They treated me good enough to justify the rubicon 520 I just bought.
Love the video. I’m just asking if you could also do a another video with ATV’s in the same class. Like 500’s / 700’s / 800’s and 1000’s that would be great 👍 😎
I'm looking to getting new atv i had a 250 trail boss in 90's looking to try another brand like Honda for reliability,any suggestions. Love to trail ride
It's tough making a list, as there aren't that many that would make it and making a top 10 would cover every one worth Buying. I am shocked Honda made it on over the King Quad. The Honda's are just slow and unfortunately, the handful of people I know with Honda's, the only one that isn't issue prone is the oldest. I don't have confidence in their current quality.
55 yr old on this end that rides all day on my 19 can am outlander max with the 1000r, it can cruise all day long with a pace that my buds hate. they always are telling me to slow down. pppfffftttt keep up! truthfully the thing stays planted and gobs of power with every squirt you give the motor.
Nothing wrong with the Brute, its super solid, it's just a little dated. If Kawasaki would add decent suspension, update the brakes, and add some decent tires/wheels, that would be a step in the right direction
That's definitely a good mud unit but they aren't great trail machines... Personally, I think the canam xmr's are better for mudding because of better intake placement, less rear suspension drag, and more aggressive clutching.. The highlighters are good too tho.. Either machine would be fun..
You can build any model to fit your needs but if you wanna leave the dealer and go straight to the mud or straight to the trail can am has a bike for that, if you own a farm and need a work horse get a Honda. Looking for speed check the zuke or the Yamaha that simple
like the Brute but they desperately need an update.. Better brakes, diff lock engagement, suspension, powersteering, and higher quality packages would go a long way for Kawi without updating the engine or chasis... Just my opinion tho..
Most 4x4s are going to be decent on rocky terrain but honestly if the trails are truly bad then the Sportsman or Scrambler S models have a huge advatage especially for keeping up with SXSs. Polaris's quality is always suspect and they're super expensive. Another (possibly) good alternative is that new Alterra Black Hills edition which is the only "purpose built" machine for crawling with 28" tires and gear reduction.. It really depends on how bad the terrain is though, because like I said, any 4x4 can crawl pretty well.
I had to stop you right there about what you said the is better than a computer assistant AWD or 4 WD and that the fact is there has never been a computer assistant setup on a ATV. And if you are some referring to Polaris AWD it uses a set up of one-way rollers and a front differential with different gear ratio and the newest models works perfectly and I prefer it to the over anything else even the Grizzy and I have own both.
You guys should do a Chinese quad face off and some of these other off brands if nothing else they're cheap and you guys can get them reasonably and abused the hell out of them and have some good laughs
The 700 grizzly out performance every quad. Canam, polaris,Honda, all are decent , but the yamaha grizzly is far superior when it come to technical riding
Well, you pretty much have 3 options most places.. Outlander, Sportsman, or cfmoto.. To keep it short, my choice would be the Outlander.. I have a Sportsman 1000 and I just can't see the Sportsman making a great touring model and you don't see many.. Much more common in the Outlander and I think the suspension will handle the second rider better.. Im not sold on cfmoto quality Yet personally.. But they are much less expensive
I like the bearded chubby guy scale. Great recipe for anyone that want's to get into a ATV is # 1 on the list. The Griz is the go to machine for sure. Fast and fun would be renegade for power and speed imo. Cheers boys🍻🍻
Thanks pisty!!! The renegade could have easily been on the list, itll probably be my next machine, but it's hard not to recommend an Outlander over the Renny for what you get for the money..
Great video buddy! Lotta good information as usual! You do a nice job at this stuff! Now was it chubby bearded with a narrow mid section?? Hmm?.. Something had a narrow mid section.. All hack gotta watch the video again.. hahahahaha!!
The 700 or the 450? The 700 is a just a detuned smaller version of the grizzly. A great quad that puts out 500cc power despite the 700 sticker.. Same ultra reliable 686cc motor though, so a great choice for reliability!
Nice to see the 650 Outlander getting a mention! It's funny that a 650 is now considered a "small" engine given that our grandparents used to pull moose out of the bush with a 2 wheel drive Honda 300 back in the day. As you've mentioned, the Rotax 650 has more power than any of the competitive 700/750 engines and I've never found mine to be lacking.
It's severely underrated.. Everyone thinks you gotta have 1000cc to do anything but I guarantee you're 650 will do 99.9% of anything the 1000 does but it cost half the price and weighs less...
I could see why only a few were medium atvs and most were extra large. The smaller engine can't handle the obesity 🤣. Lol, jokes aside, great video
😐

Personally my favorite is an Can-am outlander, I’ve only ever ridden an 570 but it feels plenty fast and is great on a trail.
Yeah the Outlander is pretty sweet.. We have the 1000r and I rode the the 1000 XT-P in the ATVonDemand shootout.. Very cool machines 👍
No King Quad?
Finally a list made by someone who actually rides and has some enthusiasm making the video kinda made the can am renegade isn’t on the list though
Well, im gonna make a new list video with a Renegade on it just for you and your awesome comment! Thanks for checking it out!
@@DirtObseXXion your welcome
I have an older G1 outlander 650 and it rides super nice. It may not be the big 92hp but the 55hp it puts out is all you need on the trail
I think the kodiak 700 is underrated.
Agreed 👍
VERY underrated. Yamaha makes GREAT machines, but doesn’t seem to get much love in the ATV community. People will soon come to realize one day. Mark my words!
I got kodiak it really good

Yes, The Yamaha Grizzly is an amazing machine.
I miss mine... sometimes
Dirt ObseXXion kinda like an old flame, the memories are fond, but a run in on real life...meh
Grizzly enough to have fun, not enough power to break things.
Honestly people say this a lot but, I sincerely mean this is an amazing video! It shares to a more broad range, realistic crowd. Well done! I have watch many of you’re videos and enjoy them all. This is an under rated with not near enough followers as it should have. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the kind words brother! Truly appreciate it 🤙
Great list! My Raptor 700R and Kodiak 700 EPS have both been incredible. You will run out of suspension performance & rider ability on a Grizzly long before power for fast trail riding. Agree that the Can Am 650 is criminally underrated. It is the hidden gem in their lineup. The Rubicons look badass, 518cc be damned, they still look great. The higher trim Rubicon pricing is a bit suspect though, for what you’re getting...
Honda is an OG so they get to price accordingly i guess... Love collection of yammers!
Raptor can ziptie a box to it. My 400 ex is good for trails. Brute as well mine was 7k back then
I got a 2016 SE Grizz ... thing is built like a tank. Like you said not the fastest quad out there but with a few mods you can squeak a little more performance out of it. Perfect for trail riding... BTW nice vid bud.
I had a 16 Grizz too, that was me in the mud hole with it.. I loved that thing and I definitely think the Grizzly is awesome! Thanks for checking out the vid!
These are all great but for me Polaris are more comfortable over long have a Honda now and can’t argue with the reliability but a lot of our rides are 100 miles sometimes more and the Polaris is so comfortable
You got that right, I have a Sportsman 1000 and I've done 300 miles in 3 days.. Not many other machines id want to do that on! Thanks for checking out the vid!
I’ve had the Yamaha Grizzly 660 for 18 years now. Never burned a belt. 2500 miles mud water rock sand and anything else. It goes great. But what got me here was “sure it may not reach 80 mph but that doesn’t matter on the trails” I don’t know how the 700 doesn’t reach 80 because my 660 maxes out at 65 😂 no hate tho big fan. I hate that I don’t see a lot of Grizzlys on the trail anymore.
The 700 will hit about 65 but it struggles to get there... Still very fast for trail riding
@@DirtObseXXion they are very fast especially for trail riding. It sucks that everyone is either on a can am or a Polaris. Not enough people are on Yamahas anymore.
my yfz450r is quit the trail monster! 51in rear wheel width makes this bike so damn stable while ripping through turns. plenty of power at any rpm makes this quad very fun.
Heck yeah brother, we love our sport quads!
That’s all good for youthful riding that might keep you from becoming an old guy like me one day should your ride end abruptly. This old guy prefers the utility of his Honda Rancher 4x4 with power steering and it ms utility and towing capabilities make it practical for us old guys who have better things to do then sling dirt lol, ride safe kiddos!!
Great video brothers and I’d say y’all nailed it and I have to agree that 650 is underrated and I know for a fact it’s a bad ass machine. Damn good video 🤘🏻🤘🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thanks AJ! Hope all is well brother!
Best closeout ever! Who are these chubby bearded guys, who are so wise in the ways of science?! They put together great lists.
I... Am an Enchanter..
Outlander 650 is a sleeper, good pick! 🙂
Definitely! Thanks Marauder!
Yeah I like it cause people see 650 they are like meh then we race and they are mind fucked ;p I raced a cfmoto sxs 1000 and we were equal....
Love this review! Really appreciate all the insight and info you provide!
I wish my local trails were suited to a raptor. I've always wanted a Raptor, and I know I'd love riding one, but we have huge boulders everywhere, and where it's not rocky we have peat bog. No 2wd's or chain drive solid axles here.
Raptors are awesome but your terrain has to be a consideration for sure!
That’s the way I should have done it haha, I shouldn’t have ordered them. What a coincidence, uploading two “ranked” ATV vids in one day haha! You made a good list, I don’t have any disagreements with it!
Thanks Lando!! I thought that was funny.. I've been working on this one off and on for a few weeks but had those sxs releases to work on..
Lando got hate mail from a certain big bearded dude...Warrior over the Raptor...I’m gonna have a hard time sleeping with that on my mind
Flying Brian DO blame the guy riding the Outlander, I should’ve known better.
Dirt ObseXXion shoot, I need to start taking my time with them. I had the idea for a couple days and got everything wrote up in about a day and had it filmed in an hour. I like the way you did yours better though, I’ll write that down!
@@TeamWaxOffroad You just gotta find a style that works for you.. I thought your video was awesome because it was genuine.
My Polaris 570 Sportsman SP has plenty of power on the trails and for pretty much anything I need. I don’t even know why you would spend 12 to 14 grand on a 1000. This should have made your list. Very very popular quad.
You're right, the 570 is extremely popular.. That could've made the list for sure, but ima big fat guy so I like the bigger Sportsmans...
You are in the middle of the woods and have 1 gallon of gas left. Now which one is your pick? When I ride with my buddies on the trails we are typically 30mph or less so speed isn't a big factor. However they are looking pretty nervous after a few hours running the 700cc + bikes while my rancher 420 and foreman 500 still have plenty in the tank. They treated me good enough to justify the rubicon 520 I just bought.
In that scenario I'm going ranchee 420 all day! It's a great machine any time
Love my Rubicon 520 Deluxe!
Great vid Chad...will be heading down to WV this fall for some XP 1000 fun.
Awesome, that'll be fun! We may try to go back in the fall too..
Been a great weekend for atv lists... Lol.. Great video Chad.. 👍👍👍
You got that right! I laughed when I saw Lando's.. At least we picked different topics! LOL!
I need links!
@@Lazyyote czcams.com/video/Ra5Lq3QCxpk/video.html
Love the video. I’m just asking if you could also do a another video with ATV’s in the same class. Like 500’s / 700’s / 800’s and 1000’s that would be great 👍 😎
That's a good idea. I'll try to do it.
Im still over here trailing the ol banshee
Hell yeah!
Where was the raptor portion filmed at? Looks like an awesome set of trails!
Devil Anse Trails, part of Hatfield McCoy in Delbarton WV.
Being a big KY boy like y’all I love this channel
Lol! Thanks brother!
my polaris 450 does the job on all the trails its been on
Great option.. We a did a comparison with a Rubicon on one a few vids back..
2 Yamaha,s on the same list makes one Helluva Statement...Grizzly For the WIN💪💪💪.
I'm looking to getting new atv i had a 250 trail boss in 90's looking to try another brand like Honda for reliability,any suggestions. Love to trail ride
I'm a fan of the Yamaha's for trail riding!
I took my Grizzly 700 out yesterday and I wish I had the 450. These trails shown here look like roads and my avg speed was 5 kph
i have a Polaris 1994 400l 4x4 wasent on your list how come JUST KIDDING great video
Lol! Thanks!
It's tough making a list, as there aren't that many that would make it and making a top 10 would cover every one worth Buying.
I am shocked Honda made it on over the King Quad. The Honda's are just slow and unfortunately, the handful of people I know with Honda's, the only one that isn't issue prone is the oldest. I don't have confidence in their current quality.
I have the sportsman 850, everyone I ride with has grizzly’s. They poke fun at my lazy boy on wheels. But I will take the comfort all day long.
Oh yeah! The Sportsman is definitely the most comfy atv ever!
I got a 2019 Kodiak 700 but i just order a 2022 Outlander XT 1000R
Sweet deal dude!
Love my raptor!! Nice video guys👍🏼
You love it? Can't tell by the abuse you put it through.. I guess love is complicated lol!!!
I wash it after every ride 🤷🏻♂️
Great video boys 😎😎😎
Someday ill add a 4x4 to my garage 🤔
That 2021 Renegade is looking sweet! 👍
55 yr old on this end that rides all day on my 19 can am outlander max with the 1000r, it can cruise all day long with a pace that my buds hate. they always are telling me to slow down. pppfffftttt keep up! truthfully the thing stays planted and gobs of power with every squirt you give the motor.
No argument there, we love the Outlander
I have a 2019 Kodiak 700 special edition and love it... Does everything the grizzly can do just in a smaller package and less money
Awesome!
I have little cara atv but i still have lots of fun also in my backyard .
Awesome!
@@DirtObseXXion it is awesome because i have friends that have atvs also so i can use my airsoft guns on the atvs
Owner of an outlander max xt 650 2020 and very happy with it 😜
Awesome machine!
Awesome video and list! Right on!
Thanks!
I have a Brute Force 750, but I think I'd have preferred a Grizz.
Nothing wrong with the Brute, its super solid, it's just a little dated. If Kawasaki would add decent suspension, update the brakes, and add some decent tires/wheels, that would be a step in the right direction
I’m looking at getting a 19 Polaris highlighter 850 sportsman or a outlander xmr 650 what do you think I wanna mud a little
That's definitely a good mud unit but they aren't great trail machines... Personally, I think the canam xmr's are better for mudding because of better intake placement, less rear suspension drag, and more aggressive clutching.. The highlighters are good too tho.. Either machine would be fun..
Thanks
Even if xmr is 650 would it feel close to the highlifters 850 power wise
You can build any model to fit your needs but if you wanna leave the dealer and go straight to the mud or straight to the trail can am has a bike for that, if you own a farm and need a work horse get a Honda. Looking for speed check the zuke or the Yamaha that simple
Can't argue with that..
What about the Kawasaki Bruteforce? Great quad with a 750cc V-Twin! I feel like it should of been on this list.
like the Brute but they desperately need an update.. Better brakes, diff lock engagement, suspension, powersteering, and higher quality packages would go a long way for Kawi without updating the engine or chasis... Just my opinion tho..
Well looks like I have 2 ATVs in number 1 spot and 1 ATV in the number 2 spot. I must say that the Sportsman XP 1000 is buy far my favorite.
I'm ready to get mine back...
Trying to figure out a good atv for trail/rocky terrain to keep up with a side by side, but I’m 5,4. What would be the best option?
Most 4x4s are going to be decent on rocky terrain but honestly if the trails are truly bad then the Sportsman or Scrambler S models have a huge advatage especially for keeping up with SXSs. Polaris's quality is always suspect and they're super expensive. Another (possibly) good alternative is that new Alterra Black Hills edition which is the only "purpose built" machine for crawling with 28" tires and gear reduction.. It really depends on how bad the terrain is though, because like I said, any 4x4 can crawl pretty well.
I had to stop you right there about what you said the is better than a computer assistant AWD or 4 WD and that the fact is there has never been a computer assistant setup on a ATV. And if you are some referring to Polaris AWD it uses a set up of one-way rollers and a front differential with different gear ratio and the newest models works perfectly and I prefer it to the over anything else even the Grizzy and I have own both.
You guys should do a Chinese quad face off and some of these other off brands if nothing else they're cheap and you guys can get them reasonably and abused the hell out of them and have some good laughs
Good idea! That would be fun!
The 700 grizzly out performance every quad. Canam, polaris,Honda, all are decent , but the yamaha grizzly is far superior when it come to technical riding
Great video guys! But, I need help deciding on a 2up.....can you guys help?
Well, you pretty much have 3 options most places.. Outlander, Sportsman, or cfmoto.. To keep it short, my choice would be the Outlander.. I have a Sportsman 1000 and I just can't see the Sportsman making a great touring model and you don't see many.. Much more common in the Outlander and I think the suspension will handle the second rider better.. Im not sold on cfmoto quality
Yet personally.. But they are much less expensive
I like the bearded chubby guy scale. Great recipe for anyone that want's to get into a ATV is # 1 on the list. The Griz is the go to machine for sure. Fast and fun would be renegade for power and speed imo. Cheers boys🍻🍻
Thanks pisty!!! The renegade could have easily been on the list, itll probably be my next machine, but it's hard not to recommend an Outlander over the Renny for what you get for the money..
@@DirtObseXXion absolutely. Price point the list was 100%
Love my kodiak 700.
Right on!
Great video buddy! Lotta good information as usual!
You do a nice job at this stuff! Now was it chubby bearded with a narrow mid section?? Hmm?..
Something had a narrow mid section.. All hack gotta watch the video again.. hahahahaha!!
It was not me... my mid section is not narrow! Lol! Thanks KC!
Dirt ObseXXion Sportsman 1000, narrow mid section.. LOL
I'm still on a 325 magnum 2x4 haha. Looking to upgrade in the spring/summer thanks for the list.
Awesome! Good luck!
Love it ! Does older chubby gut with a goatee love his older Raptor (2011) ? Hell yeah & I finally made a good Top List for a change lol
Haha! You know it Mad Mike!
Great favorites looks like you all had a great time . Big like 34 guys keep up the great footage and have a fun week. 👍😎
Thanks Chas! Appreciate all the support brother!
Dirt ObseXXion interestingly enough I had a can am 570 and my brother had a 650 and my 570 was actually faster.
I'm mad because I've owned and sold the first 2 ATV's on this list and now I'm pining for something new!
You've got good taste! I'm sure you'll make the right decision!
Wonder what you think of the Kodiak. I'm an oldster, won't be flying down any trail...more like poking?
The 700 or the 450? The 700 is a just a detuned smaller version of the grizzly. A great quad that puts out 500cc power despite the 700 sticker.. Same ultra reliable 686cc motor though, so a great choice for reliability!
Nice to see the 650 Outlander getting a mention! It's funny that a 650 is now considered a "small" engine given that our grandparents used to pull moose out of the bush with a 2 wheel drive Honda 300 back in the day.
As you've mentioned, the Rotax 650 has more power than any of the competitive 700/750 engines and I've never found mine to be lacking.
It's severely underrated.. Everyone thinks you gotta have 1000cc to do anything but I guarantee you're 650 will do 99.9% of anything the 1000 does but it cost half the price and weighs less...
I like my predator 500 it’s actually pretty damn good in trails
love my 2018 kodiak 700 eps
Nice!!!
Another awesome list, very informative.
Thanks Scott!! Good to see you brother!
No mention of the Rincon either lol
Nope! Can't even adjust pre-load on Rincon suspension
