Polaris SM XP 850/1000 vs Kawi BF 750i EPS

I have (2) Kawis now…an 09, and a 12 with EPS. Was really hoping they would step up their game with at least an 800 several years ago, but nada.

Looking to trade in my 09 b/f it gets too old.

Was dead set on a Sportsman 1000 XP but then I started looking online and the horror shows I have read are truly scaring me away.

I have a 15′ RZR900s and a SBA144/RMK 155 Pro sled…all have been great, but I know the ATVs are a different ball game…so…please lay it on me for trouble areas, etc.

I mean we are talking 50HP vs. 70+ to 88HP…but I hear it’s all up top and not usable…for mud and trails.

I hear ground height/clearance is not nearly what Poo claims due to way too plush ride on way too soft springs so it sags under your weight and it’s much heavier self vs. the Kawi.

Plow mounts mean I can’t swap my Moose over…all Poo stuff.

Also hearing zerk fittings are awful to access and many electrical connections are still not water proof…

Never mind several frame cracking areas that should be a recall from what I understand…

All info is appreciated. Thanks.
