I prefer the BF650. The 650 v-twin feals allot more powerfull in the much lighter chassis of the BF650 than the A/C. Plus there is a huge price differnce in these 3 choices. There are allot of other quads on the market that I wold buy for the price of the AC or the SP600.

Also if you put enough strain on a tow strap and it breaks it can whip back and injure someone. I'm not sure if two ATVs could generate that kind of force but I know a truck can easily do so. In my truck I generally try to pull in reverse and I always put up the hood to stop a broken strap from snapping back and going through the windshield. I had a large dent in the tailgate of my old truck from a broken tow strap. Looked like someone smacked it with a sledgehammer.
Something to take into consideration when using a winch also. Wire rope can cut a human being in half if broken with enough force. The force exerted by a vehicle winch has more than enough force to kill someone. Some sandbags, a couple of jackets or even vehicle floor mats on the winch cable goes a long way to making winching safer.

FIrst off never hook two ATV's together and pull, many people have died from doing that.
Second, if that Arctic Cat 650 is the H1, it will be able to pull faster then the others. If it is the V2, then it has the same enging as the BF650 and that would be close. The Polaris would be last of the three, under most circumstances.

The ATV's start to bounce and tip over crushing the person. Or the line breaks and causes your ATV to go out of control. Or one ATV does start to pull the other really fast and that other ATV tips over and crushes the person. Many ways it can happen. I even remember reading about a guy who died when he hooked his new full size Chevy up to a new full size Ford and they tried this. One of the trucks ended up pulling the other and that other truck lost control and ended up flipping over in the ditch and smushed the dude.

the 600 polaris weighs more so that would give it an advantage but you would almost have to hook up bumper to bumper on the tar cause my buddy had a 700 polaris and i had a 500 cat and we hooked up bumper to bumper and we both sat there and spun. power wise the 650 bf would be first 650 cat second and 600 polaris third. but then again just flat out pulling something would be kinda interesting cause i heard that 650 h1 is a force to recon with in low end.
