I went and traded in my Polaris yesterday for another Kawasaki. I picked up this '06 Brute Force 750. If you want a machine that snaps your head back, this is the one. I am very impressed with the power.

I agree. We did the same with my dads polaris sportsman...traded it in for a brute force and a yamaha grizzly. That brute is probably gonna get me killed if I'm not careful.

Kawis are nice quads, no doubt.

Those things are like riding a caddy compared to my Z400. VERY nice and comfortable...Congrats man.

Whooaa, trading a Polaris for a Kawi???? Nooooo!!!!! Say it aint so

Just kidding, nice looking quad!

Did you ride an 800EFI at all? Just curious on how it rides compared to mine (800 sportsman)?

Good luck with the kawi, those force's are really nice. The Polaris crew will miss you though

Thanks guys! I'm very happy with it so far (18 miles, 2 hours).

Watz, I thought all the Sp 800's were EFI???

I haven't ridden one, but my dad drove a 700EFI and he says it has nothing on my Brute. Sportsmans are very nice machines also. The Sp 800EFI was my next choice, but it a bit heavy for the way I ride.

All 800's are (EFI), what I meant was Where you able to compare an 800 to a BF.

I'll give you the weight comment. My 800 is HEAVY no doubt. I didn't like it first but when it comes to pushing snow it actually works out better. Believe me I didn't like the 760 pound DRY weight when I saw it either.

Still like the BF, did you get a look at the Suzuki? I watch ATV television every week. That Doug Myer is Suzu brand bias (I don't like brand bias in anything) but he actually has me curious about the king quad. I wonder

I drove a '06 KQ last weekend. Very smooth ride and a soft seat, but didn't have near the power of the Brute. I would choose the Kawi or the Sp800 over the Suzuki. It did handle well also, but it seemed kind of cheapy compared to either of my Kawi's. The other good part about the king is that it took about half as much fuel as a Sp800 or my Brute because of the single cylinder EFI. It just didn't have the Grunt. My buudy who has the KQ says he rode with a 800 Sp. and he said it was real nice and seemed powerful, but he said it used alot of fuel. That is the closest comparison I can give to a Sp800 as I have never rode with one or drove one. My buddy did say my 750 seemed to wheelie much easier than any other he has seen or ridden.
