Anyone here riding a Honda TRX 700XX?
If so, please post your thoughts and impressions.
Honda’s Centered Chain Drive System seems very innovative to me, allowing IRS on a chain drive sport ATV.

Old post, but I ride a Polaris Outlaw 525 (510 cc KTM engine)
It smokes the big, heavy honda. And it is a chain driven IRS.
Stock V. Stock, not much can catch it, including the Raptor 700

I have ridden one and it is extremely heavy. I bought a Raptor instead although the honda rides a little smother the Raptor much more sporty. I have raced numerous 525's and although it was close they could never keep up!

Thanks for the info. I was not aware of Outlaw 525 IRS model, which indeed does have IRS. I'm also demanding fuel injection on my next quad. Reading the specs for the Outlaw, it shows:
Keihin 39mm FCR
I can't tell if that is a carb or FI. Anyone know?

It is a carb, but widely regarded as the most tuneable one out there. No issues with it here, don't even need the choke most times.
At least see if someone has one that you can ride before you rule it out?

That is a carburator.
The only injected IRS sport quad out right now is the new Honda.
