We were out doing suspension testing in the class 1 last month when they were doing some testing and promo shoots for the Wild Cat 2 and 4 seaters. They looked really good through the rougher terrain. I wanted to go for a ride but they shot me down. I have been looking into them a lot and they seem to shine in the rough stuff but fall short pulling the big hills. I am saving my money for the 4 seat Maverick. It puts about 15hp more to the ground than the XP and has suspension travel fairly equivelent to the wildcat. There is a reason that Polaris and Arctic Cat put their sport side by sides against the CanAm utility side by side and not their sport version in their videos

The KFX in there for 8 hours was mine. The bill was stupid expensive. When it was all said and done I lost 2mph on the top end and the mid section stumbled and ran like garbage. When I took it in it had a bad tune in it with mismatched jets and was hard to keep the front end on the ground. Now it is hard to get it to lift the front end. I had gotten the bottem end and midrange tuned on another dyno in town by myself in an hour. That also included me pulling the main jet and running to the shop next door to drill it out and reinstall it. I took it to them because they are supposed to be experts and have every jet size available and I was out of time to finish it myself before I left for Dumont. They also told me my valves were out of adjustment. I told them I just did them and they said they should not make that much noise. They charged me to readjust them before they started to tune and guess what they still make just as much noise. My bill for the dyno tune was over $650 for a bike that doesn't pull as hard and pops and stumbles anywhere other than idle or full throttle
