| well.....if your talking flat out drags race......a brute will lose to both of them.....and from what i've seen.....the popo and the canned ham are pretty close......go with what you like.....if your just concerned about speed.....you may want to get a renegade..... |

| ive got a polaris 500 x2 i like it alot but im thinkn about getting another that is more powerful. alot of people i ride with dont like polaris. they say they tear up alot. a couple of them have the brute force, they sound real good. i saw a mud bog at windrock in the spring and the can ams were awesome. but i dont know anybody thats got the polaris 850, they say its got 70 horses. i was just wondering how it stacked up. im also considering the rzr. i just want to be a little faster and go thru the mud better than every body else |

| Big Daddy is correct.....For just Mudding or Racing...The Can-Am's are a GREAT bike.....for the trail...I am still not convinced they will hold up. I love the new Polaris 850....from what I seen in person of the 2 Drag the 850 PoPo Beat the 800R by about 1-1.5 bikes length everytime....both of them had Outlaws though. If it was me and I was going to trail ride with it...the Polaris 850 I guess...Outta those 2 bikes. _________________ Kawasaki Brute Force 750iTeam Cumberland Mudders Barnett #10 Sponsored by: X Brand, MudTechInc., GearUpHelmets.com, Interco Tire, Mud-Throwers.comMudNutz.com |

| we do have fun. we dont really race or anything, just trail riding. where we ride the most there is alot of deep mudholes and i like playn in them. some of them nobody goes in. i also like going wide open sometimes to. my kids have a suzuki 160 and it will go just about every where everybody else goes, it surprised everybody, it just kinda floated thru everything |

| Some of you guys kill me... Can-Am builds the best all around ATV...PERIOD! You guys already know and openly admit, you can't beat them on a drag strip (WR Spring Jam winner...Renegade) or in a mud pit...you mud guys get pounded by them every time you enter a pit with them. And as far as being suitable for trail riding...we just finished up 7 of the toughest, rockiest, nastiest Utah trails I have ever been on with 4 Can-Ams and the only thing that got beat up was the bottom of the skid plates...all of the bikes made it through with 0 mechanical or electrical problems...yeah, they do just fine on the trails. You want the best bike...get a Can-Am...you want to always be second...buy anything else. If your into speed, you can't beat a Renegade...Want great trail ability and comfort ? (with a better than anyone else has, amount of speed) get an Outlander. You get what you pay for, Can-Ams are quite expensive and worth every last penny! _________________ 2007 Outlander 650 XT Yellow 26" BigHorns on 14" SS106's , HMF, UNI Crutchfield Suspension, PRP Stabilizer, Tamarack Boxes, A few LED's and some Renegade parts...

| I wish I could get an endorsement check from them...I think I've earned one...HeHe. The new Red Max Ltd 800R with Power Steering, Air Ride rear suspension, GPS and updated Visco-Lok is very certainly in my future... I have had quite a few bikes myself, and I would still put a Can-Am up against any of them...nuf said. _________________ 2007 Outlander 650 XT Yellow 26" BigHorns on 14" SS106's , HMF, UNI Crutchfield Suspension, PRP Stabilizer, Tamarack Boxes, A few LED's and some Renegade parts...
