Thinking about getting a 700xx

[Oz24]

I currently have a 07 400 trx and I want more power without having to modify the crap out of it. I saw a dealship has a smoking deal on an 08 700 xx. I am wondering if it would be worth it to get one or if the 08 has any issues since it was the first year of production. Any information will help.

Thanks,
DJ

Go for it! The 08 is a great machine, same exact specs as the 09 other than I hear the handle bar hieght is 1" different.

just bought one yesterday only got to ride it up the driveway and a little clip up the road due to rain but one short ride says this thing has balls. I don't think you could go wrong with this bike unless motocross is your thing. I primarily ride trails woods mostly and think I'm gonna love this thing. Btw I came from a 400ex to and while i love that bike I think I made a good decision with the XX . Your dealer may have a demo for you to ride mine did it helped with my decision.

Definitely an awesome quad. 2 of my buddies just picked up the brand new 08's and have been riding them hard ever since without any problems. When compared to a 400ex, obviously the 700xx stands out in power and handling. Although im not a fan of IRS,I fell in love with them just after a few minutes of riding. Definitely a great quad
