I have a 1995 polaris. I beat the snot out of it. It's a 4x4 2 stoke 300cc. It rides like a dream, has hig and low, selectable 4x4 and is a nice quad. I had suzuki's, honda's and yamaha's. I actually had a 200 yamaha big bear and bough this and sold the big bear. The only gripe I have with it is the starter is a hunk of garbage. When it is below freezing the machine won't start. It clicks. I have to throw the propane heater on it for a while then whack the starter and it fires up and is good for the day. I haven't pulled it apart yet but there is water in there I'm sure from deep water crossings. I know the starters on these are the weak link. It also says on my machine "designed for warm weather use" Go figure polaris and warm?

It's been a good quad. Starter and one of the front struts has a minor leak, other than that I'd buy another one based on the nice tranny, great brakes and smooth but sporty ride.

My 200 big bear ate up cv joints quick. my 1998 timbrewolf did too. The suzuki is a good choice too. The hondas are great but check the specs, very low ground clearance on some of them.,,,good luck...buy american...Jim
