    one place where I ride alot of these guys ave these "ute" quads, they are like jeeps, I don't know which is bigger. I can see a 1000cc "ute" quads in the near future, these things are 700-800 pound dry wieght, they need big motors to move them and some guy is gonna want to have the bragging rights to say "I have a 1000cc motor in my 900lb quad". you guys know whats really funny, our trikes have more than half the weight as these "mini" jeeps and have motors almost half as big and will fun cicles around them "mini" jeeps. I find that just plain pathetic, 20 yr old bikes with half the weight and half the motor size running cirles around these "mini" jeeps. god forbid you get one of them stuck in the mud, good luck getting them out.

    2 words, Geo Tracker......my buddy bought one that had been rolled over and cut all the body off of it and built a rock crawler looking cage for it and put a plastic body on it , it is just one huge assed quad lol and i think its got a 1600cc engine, it will fit most places on the trails where a sportsman will

    RIDE IT LIKE YOU STOLE IT! AND NEVER LOOK BACK, THEY ARE TOO FAR BEHIND TO SEE!!

    Id rather have a sister in a WHORE HOUSE than a brother in a FORD!

    That whole sentance didn't make sense. Rephrase it, spell check it, and put some damn periods in there will you please?

    I sure as hell hope they put an end to the CC war soon, All these big machines have destroyed many trails that i used to love going dirtbiking on when they were dry and only had small ruts but now since there have been atv rally's with dozens of these 1000 LB beasts the trails are notihng but long stretches of mudholes. Another thing that should be considered about these things is the safety, I know around here alot of the people that own the 650+ CC quads are the type that gets drunk and goes quading all day and people end up in the hospital with broken necks because trhey flipped there 800 pound quad on them or even worse they let there 10 year old kids ride them . But anyhow thats just what i tihnk about huge quads like those.

I think its got a 1600cc engine. The tracker AKA "Rokon" will fit most places on the trails where a sportsman will.

    As long as there is a market there will be bigger and bigger quads. I dont think there is a cut off for CC's though because our Polaris ranger either has a 500 or 750 cc engine in it but it is classified as one of them Utility vehiculars like the Gator.

    sorry if this offends anyone, but utility atv's are way too large these days. me and my dad hunt every year on a 4x4 300 fourtrax, this bike has gone through hell, and brought back a few elk on its journey back, it does the job and some. but how are you suposed to hunt on a 800cc atv? their so huge, that they wont fit on the trails we use. polaris needs too learn to make a more potent motor, and that you dont need so many cc's. im perfectly content with a honda 300: powerful, and reliable motor, that makes great power for its size. ive seen a few 650's and 800's that couldent make it through a tight trail, or maneuver over big rocks, logs, and mud. giant utility bikes arent as awesome as everyone makes them out to be. makers need to squeeze more power out of their motors, because in my opinion, atvs these days are too big. if someone really needs something that big, get a max 6x6. 24horse b&s, 6 wheel drive, and it floats!

    i agree 100%. I was at a dealership yesterday snooping around and I was amazed at how large some of these quads are getting. My first thought was Holy smokes!!! I would hate to have to push that thing home or out of a mudhole! Save yourself the trouble and get a winch. btw I had one of that 6x6's at one time an it was awesome!

    Just look at that waste of a sport quad with IRS. Huh????
