It all depends on what your needs are. I want a bike to plow, haul logs out of the bush, play in the mud and trail ride. I have it down to the 850xp or the T-Cat. There is no replacement for displacement. That is my theory. Consider where you will be riding, what the trails are like, mudding, what are the other size of bikes you will be riding with, etc,etc. I personally don't have either one but my research lead me to the 850xp or T-cat. You can look up reviews about the bikes and see witch one has more proplems, do the pros & cons.


Good luck

Ian

The 850 for sure. Close to the same price with bigger engine.
I'd get the 850 and then put a big bore kit in it
