750 king quad vs 800 can am/ brute force

[leanburn]

i'm about to buy a new quad and was going to get a 800 can am but before i do i would like to here from some kk owners. since i have rode several canams and brutes i know the power, ride and handling is great. how does the kk hold up in a flat race between another equal machine such as a brute force, can am or 700 grizzly? i'm talking stock to stock, i need to know what i would have to do to one of these to keep up.
i don't like the way the brute force handle, it feels like your riding on top of a spring swaying side to side/ back and forth, how the kk in comparison?
i normally don't ask these question cuase usually i have plenty of oportunity to ride a buddies but i don't know anyone who has one. any info would be appreiciated.

the king quad is a very capable quad in the mud and skeg. on dirt roads etc you won't catch a canam or brute. they are twins and kings are single cyl. good tires will get you farther in the mud than power, most times. if your buddys all ride canams they will leave you behind on the fire roads but otherwise no problem.

I abuse the poop out of my 750 king, it hasn't let me down yet. I hate getting my butt whooped by the big twin cyl units, but I make it out of the bush on my own power. I installed a Velocity devices CDI unit and an SDI clutch kit to give me the power I wanted. I'll lift the front end in high range with no effort at all now.

hey ed, how bad do you take a spankin from the twins with your cdi . i was thinking of maybe buying a king and doing some portwork, bigger injector and cdi but if i'm still going to be down on power i think i'll bite the bullit and go outlander or renegade.

When ur comparing a KQ to a brute/outtie, its the same as comparing a 2.3 inline 4 ford to 5.0L MUSTANG. They will do all the things the outtie and brute will do, but with half the gas. Id go with the king. will not let u down.
Have a buddy with a kawi take out two f diffs, on two diffr kawis. Have another buddy thats blown a lot of can-am parts, he always sez "thank god for can-am 3 yr warr.
