I'd have to agree with the IRS Outlaw or the Z400. The Z400's downfall is ground clearance. Other than that, great trail machine.

Every sport quads downfall is ground clearance Just kidding, those IRS machines do have a nice bit of clearance.

Tis true! And, yes, IRS is quickly changing that. My Scrammy could use some more gc, that's for sure.

I don't know why everyone is so concerned about ground clearance. I ride my quads every single day of the year and everyday it's trail riding and I jump logs, go over rocks, ruts, everything, and I go just fine. My z was raced through GNCC races it's whole life until I got it and it was probly about an inch from the ground lol. IRS is simply not needed unless you're riding in a pile of rocks. Which I also rode my z250 through. Just sayin

obviously the rocks and ruts you are going over are not very large or deep... Nor are you getting into deep mud.

Low ground clearance = high centered that's why everyone is so concerned with gc.

bigger tires. Then you sacrifice handling, power, and raise the gear ratio.
