What's the Brute Force like?? I have never tried one. I am giving serious thought to the Bombardier XT 800. Read great reviews about and it supossed to be a rocket and mind boggling torque.

From what I see on the drags around here, stock to stock the bomb 800 will take the kawasaki 750 brute, which is understandable considering the bomb has the bigger engine. The only problem I have with the bomb is no right hand (front) brake lever, and no actual (on demand) front locker, I know it has visco-lock... but thats not a on spot locker. Plus I like the looks of the kawasaki better.

And the bombs arent exactly reasonably priced either. You should be ready to pay about 8-9K for one of those I believe. The Brutes run about 7K

Mmmmm, I drove one of those BruteForce 750's, talk about a rocket (to me anyway). Pretty nice four wheeler IMO. I like the option of a solid rear axle on it too, very uncommon on a big bore wheeler; Im an IRS hater.

The 750 is only offered in irs form. The brute force 650 has the solid rear axle option.

I love the looks of the Bombardier. But. it's hard to break away from my Rincon. I love it but it does lack speed. I know the Rincon is probably the best ridding ATV on the market but I hear the Bombardier is very close. I love the IRS once you have it you'll never go back to a solid rear axle.

True on the IRS. I had a 03 rincon. Bought it when they first come out. I had around 10,000 miles on it, then I got the brute force. The rincon compared to the brute is like night and day in power & holdback. Low range is a big plus. The ride on the brute is pretty much the same as the rincon, maybe a little better imo. Over all service & reliability has been better on the kaw too, which now has over 4000 miles on it.

Kinda like going from a Fx4 ranger to a F250 powerstroke.

The bombs are nice, go test ride one and I bet you forget all about the rincon.

Edit... had to toss this pic in since we are on the rincons. My buddy (the one flipping off the cam) was on his rincon in this water hole and it took on water. I backed out in the hole and pulled his back out through the hole lol. You can see the water line on my seat.
