has anyone had anything to do with artic cats 700 diesel quad????

I think there was a reason they quit producing them. Thought polaris was the only one that tried it.

There is a great thread on arcticchat by a fellow by the name of whitbread he's a real diesel guru.

 

[jjack]

cant find anything from Whitbread on here,Echo cycle has a new 2013 was just wondering if their any good.Seems like a lot of them are in Germany.

Get a hold of Terry at T&T Powersports in Bonnyville, or send him a PM. He'll tell you everything you want to know.

Why a diesel......?

 

[jjack]

need some thing for heavy work that's why I was going for the grizz but then I seen the diesel

 

[TROLLCAT]

Are you going to put a chrome 6" stack on it too !?!?

If you want to work it get an 850xp, it will walk circles around a grizz all day long....
The diesel well it sounds like a neat idea really has no advantage that I can see....

If he wants a diesel i would guess he wants to pull something heavy,,,,,,,,,,,which would count out all the underpowered 3 wheel drive hondas to start with.....

Only advantage for a diesel quad would be out in the bush somewhere where everything is diesel, no gas available.

Ya you bet gazr.
Obviously you have never owned a foreman.

Drum brakes ,3 wheel drive and gutless........what did i miss...lol My Brigs and stratten lawnmover runs forever too, but no really cares anyways.......
Ive owned a few hondas,have you owned an xp ? MY GUESS IS NO.

Back on topic,any of the big bores will work well in all conditions.With out the hassle of a diesel i would think.....What are you doing with it...???

I remember the polaris diesel quads wouldn't start in the cold very well. local seismic outfit bought a bunch of them, turfed them the next season

Yes I have. Got stuck behind one of those stinking POS things at a rally one time. Wanted to jam a stick up the tail pipe and save the planet
