'09 850 XP. EFI
By Richard Pointer (I am an Owner)Read MoreHas Plenty of Torque, Fun to drive, But less than 100 Miles, and the Constant Volceity Shafts, had to be replaced, Now the Tie Rod ends have slop in them. and of Course it is out of Warranty, 6 Months, Brake Pads worn out need to be replaced, and i don't ride my brakes, i have had 9 Polaris's ... and this is the only one, i have ever had to have back to the shop. This has the opportunity to be the Best, Polaris has Made, But the Maintence is TERRIBLE on them.

The Best ATV Ever
By Smoothbassman (I am an Owner)Read MoreIf you get this ATV, you will not be disappointed! The torque is outstanding and with the EPS, its so easy riding this bad boy thru the rough stuff. You can ride this thing all day and not feel tired at all!
The only thing that I would like is a solid geared transmission, the CVT ... drive has a slight delay coming down from high speed and then trying to punch it to slip around the corners. It even sound clunky when locking up the rear wheels. Other than that, this is the best ATV that is available on the market today.
