Polaris 700?

[Oakey]

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with the new Polaris 700?

[HARLEY]

I hunt with a guy that has one, its a bad boy! However, for the money if you are using it for hunting the Sportsman 500 is plenty of bike and will save you a $1000 bucks! Someone told me that Polaris just came out with a new Sportsman 600. It should be a good one to! If you really want answers go to http://www.highlifter.com they got everything you ever wanted to know about any four wheeler.

Harley, they let you have a day off from crime fighting?

[HARLEY]

Yeah, they finally felt sorry for us and gave us a couple days off. We will be down in your neck of the woods starting monday. Got a week long rifle school down at Shaw's. Im looking forward to the break as shooting a gun down in the delta always beats Memphrica!

Harley you better watch coming thru here. Gonna be looking for u. U could stop in if u aint so stuck up. Think Memfrica is something. Got some tales to share with you now. Spent Saturday morning with the CBC group while they shot clays. Most have never held a gun must less shot one.Later Bro

Thanks for the tip Harley. There are a lot of people there who think differently. I guess it all boils down to your personal preference.

Oakey, a guy at my camp just bought one and I saw it this weekend. Its a powerful machine, some of the fellows at the camp rode it and said it ran 70 mph. I know he left my Honda 300 like it was sitting still.

I have a honda 300 4x4. It has been a great 4-wheeler, but it is a 93 model and I am now starting to spend more money on it than what it is worth. I have a few friends that have new 350 ranchers and have nothing but problems out of them. That is why I was thinking about a Polaris. However, 7 grand is a little pricey. I just wanted to be sure that was what I wanted before I spent that kind of money.

Polaris, Honda -- Ford, Chevy you will never get anyone to agree on a subject like that. Best thing to do would be buy the one YOU like and start ridin'. I own a Polaris 2001 Sportsman 500 and would'nt trade it for anything. The one thing I can say for sure is that the Polaris will run circles around the Honda's in the mud. Polaris is the only bike I know of that is a true 4-wheel drive. All Honda's are limited slip in the front end. This was a big factor when I bought mine, and so far it has paid off. If I can stand (or sit) in it while hunting my Polaris will get me there.

Oakey, get a bike that will suit your needs where you hunt. If you hunt in gumbo mud, go for a lighter bike, like the Rancher 350. I know 5 people that bought one last season and haven't had any probs with them, my dad will be the 6th in a couple of months. The polaris bike to me are way too heavy, and will bottom out. I've got some mudholes that stick a heavy bike, but my timberwolf 250 4X4 will go straight through it.

my Honda foreman 400 4x4 is not too heavy...until I put my hunting partner, my son, 2 dozen dekes, shotguns, backpacks, and a drag a 14 foot jon boat on a pvc sled behind it. Then it's tend to squeeze a little mud out from under it.
