i dont hate any of them but my least favorite is bombardier, although the ds650 is okay everything else is ugly.

I hate polaris. I will NEVER buy one. The ATV's are piles of crap that fall apart right away. The predator might be okay for some people, but it will never even come close to Honda or Yamaha.

It is faster in a drag, but the Raptor will wheelie buy it in the reliability sector...

Whats your point? Any fourwheeler will do a wheelie I can do a wheelie on my rancher. And there hasnt been many if any recalls or problems with the preditor

Any polaris is a timebomb. Just give it a chance to leave you stranded or ruin your weekend and it will. People ask "If polaris sucks so bad, why do so many people buy them?"--because they think they're being patriotic or something? I don't know but you have to be a moron to buy a polaris when you know their reliability SUCKS! I hate polaris!

So many people buy polaris's because they are like a car. 1 "gas pedal", 1 brake lever, no need to worry about changing gears (whats the fun in all that? :? ). A 95 year old man or a 5 year old kid could drive one.

the reasons I bought my polaris.
1 fully auto, (no electric shift that don't work half the time)
2 true 4x4, (not the limited slip like most)
3 deep tread (not the shallow tread that wears out in a week)
4 disc brakes all around (no drums to tear down and clean every mud run)
5 full independent suspention (11.75in of ground clearence with a smooth ride)
6 to plow my drive way and drag my deer
the only problems I have with it are the front struts are soft and it's not
real good at high speed corners.It's also a little on the heavy side at 700
pounds.

Ya....Goodyear Rawhide Grips....I have those on my Foreman. And I can lock my front differential by holding the front brake (works great too)

You should have a vote for none cuse I like something from all. They each have their ups and downs and strong and weak points. There are a few that arent on their that are big like KTM and Arctic Cat, but that doesnt really matter...

thing wrong with the polaris industry, make good sleds, and they make a better 4 wheeler, hell my dad has a 600 twin polaris, it goes like none other! only time he got it stuck was when the water and mud was OVER the seat! other then that, no problems what so ever, had a carburator problem, but it just sucked in a bit of the air filter, no problem.

Nothing wrong with polaris, i wouldnt drive one over a 3 wheeler of course, but i would drive one through mud and on some wicked arse trails.

Just my thoughts on the subject, but one thing i do agree with, i like honda better wink

Hey now, I Drive / ride a Polaris!!!!!!!! Oh, wait it is a 3 wheeler. lmao I love it when it is running correctly. But I absolutely hate working on it. Just to remove the starter you have to remove 1/2 of the machine. There is other stuff that is as bad to fix. Very poorly designed for working on it. Thank God the ride makes up for it. lol
