If you are really a moose hunter, you will be hauling big loads of meat out of the woods. So, you might want to think about if you really want IRS. If pulling a trailer the IRS will squat, and if you load the racks down it's going to squat too....

On an SRA machine, the tongue weight of the trailer is supported by the solid axle. On an IRS machine, the weight is supported solely by the quad's suspension...plus under torque, the suspension will squat as well.
How many IRS pickup trucks do you see out on the road??? There is your answer!

The Brute Force is a great quad. Which model 650 are you looking at...the one with IRS or the straight axle? I have the 4x4i (i is for IRS, which is independent rear suspension), and my dad has the 4x4, which has a solid rear axle.
Both are great bikes. Loads of power, awesome looks, and they're bulletproof. The IRS quad has better ground clearance, a better suspension, and is more at home on rocks/mud. The SRA (solid rear axle) quad is better at powerslides and costs significantly less.
You can't go wrong with either one. It's just a matter of if you want IRS or SRA.
