Rigsby,I have a Polaris Scrambler.It is a 4 stroke 4wd sport bike with a 500cc motor.Brakes and 4wd are second to none.Only thing that hurts it is no low range,less than optimal ground clearance and no fenders to keep to mud off of ya.So I went and got a Suzuki Kingquad 700.Low range is nice and 4wd is OK.To get true 4wd you have to lock a diff lock,but that activates a speed limiter.I think it limits the bike to 9 mph.It has an override button that you can hold in,but that only gets you up to about 15 mph.Sicks if you really want to blast thru the funky stuff.Scrambler will out power it in any situation,out handle it easily,uses alot less gas(both run on 91 octane)and definitely rides smoother.So ,if you want to blast thru the woods with a smooth,good handling bike with awesome 4wd to bail you out,get a Scrambler.It is truly bullet proof!If you want to climb over logs and play in the mud,the Kingquad does alot better than my Momma's Grizzly woth power-steering(which,by the way only activates AFTER you start rolling :roll: ).Plus the Grizzly's are extremely HOT to ride on.You will suffer on that beast in the dead of winter,plus a Scrambler will outrun it,too I know you didn't ask,but there is my opinion on quads!

P.S. My Dad has a 700 KFX,SUPER fast bike,75 mph+!!!Great bike of you don't mind getting stuck or a broken body part once in a while....also extremely stiff ride.Great for the adrenaline junkie who doesn't mind going back to work on monday with a cast and a case of the monkey butt :shock:
