Anyone planning on buying a 700XX??

Just curious if anyone is planning to buy one:D

I think i would like to see a shootout between the outlaw irs and the 700xx before i would buy one

Striaght axle and 70lbs. - 100lbs. less and i would get one! If i had the money.:(

IRS doesnt thrill me at all. To me it seems to take out the sportyness and make it seem more of a sporty plastic 4x4. If they make it straight axle like said above i think it would sell much better. The thing is the 700xx they measured wet weight and the raptor 700 is dry weight so they are actually pretty close.

Aye, I think it's the first time I've seen "Curb Weight" used on an ATV. It's probably about 460 lbs dry.

I think I'm gonna give one a try. I cant be anymore disappointed than I was with the 450r.

It looks worse in person.

I love riding hondas.....


But i would buy a Raptor 700 over a 700xx anyday. yamaha has hit the nail on the head as far as big bore sport quads go. There isnt anything thats gonna top it right now. (and im talking 600+ cc range)
