im looking to buy a sportsman 850 xp. what r some of the goods and bads about it and i have never owned a 4x4 before so i thought this quad should be a strong one

Posted by: Shilly

First of all, the power it has is addictive. It is a rocket! I have about 250 miles on mine, and I am very impressed. Here are a few likes and dislikes: (remember, this is only my opinion)

Likes: Power (70 hp) the 800's only have 54 hp, handling, power steering, easy to wheelie

ADC, and overall weight balance.

Dislikes: Factory tires, seat (too soft), lack of storage.

If you buy this bike, you will not be able to walk past it without getting on and taking off.

I've had mine since May and the only prob I have with it is the storage. I wish there was something to at least put your cell or glasses. Tires are ok, not great but ok, they seem to wear fast imo. The seat, I LOVE THE SEAT! I feel like I'm driving a cadillac not a dump truck. I did the EPS with it and with the combination of everything else, the 850 XP is a great machine and I'm really enjoying it.
