Don't like my Daisy Duke shorts? ;D
Thanks for the props. Not big into chest thumping but yes it is Grape Ape on steroids ass fast. I have raced it against several brands and just let me say you better not bring anything that you have not added money to yet up against a stock 525. Polaris statement of fastest accelerating stock quad is accurate.
The only things I have done to it are AC racing blackline propeg nerfs, Pit posse Outlaw shifter, Vapor computer and a JD Jet kit with the accelerator pump o-ring mod with no lid. Waiting on FMF to come out with their pipe in a few weeks.
I have ridden SRA ATV's for 20 years and was a little apprehensive about the IRS. But after spending time on it I will never go back to SRA quads. The ride quality is so much better with IRS and the control and traction coming out of corners is awesome. In that last picture I was on the throttle hard in the corner and notice both back tires are still on the ground throwing roost. The close tire is really digging in. A SRA quad would of started to lift the inside tire at that point since the rear axle is straight.
I would bet that 90% of you could hop on the 525 and not notice anything negative about the IRS setup. The only thing you would notice is that it launches out of corners and is much smoother over bumps.
