| Wonder how much it will take the price up. I see there are 08 750s on ebay right now for 5999. If the trade up would not be too expensive I might consider it. | |

| I have rode the Can-Am, the Po-Po 800, the Grizzly, etc. Nothing fits the LT like the King Quad. It really is the best all-around utility atv for sporty performance and trail manners. It won't win every race, but it will outhandle the Brute, and the ride to me is second to none. Polaris is a close second in the suspension, and maybe these two are tied now for top dog because of both having power steering. I paid 5999 for my first King and 6300 for my second one. Grizzly is around 7500 w/o PS, and the Can-Am is around 9k. The 800 Polaris was over 8k, and the new one is around 8500. Bang for the buck you can see how the King leads the way. | |

| And the King has the smoothest one lung engine you will ever ride on. My buddy Bob has over 3000 miles on his now without one single issue and has done nothing but oil changes. Still rides today like it did brand new. | |

| He finally changed his tires. He got a new set of Kingquad factory take offs from ebay shipped to his house for $150. He said he likes the tread cause he likes to spin them. | |

| That is funny. I could not stand those tires. I never put a mile on em before I changed em out. Tell him Airborne said hello, and he needs to get himself a SxS. | |

| I know a few not that happy with there 08 and the way it handles. The 07s were really bad I read on many forums. Big bubba just bought his and wishes he had bought another vinson. Said it was real twitchy on the trails. Maybe power steering will help. | |

| The high speed handling is awesome Gunny, but they do have a problem with severe bump steer when loading the front end such as going down a steep rutted and rocky hill. They will jerk the handlebars out of your hand in a heartbeat. Those that own them know to hang on tight in certain situations. The Powersteering should remedy that. | |
