Kawasaki 750 Brute Force OR Yamaha Grizzly 700 FI EPS

[YAMMY450]

I have done a lot of screwing around trying to decide on what machine to buy, but I have narrowed it down to these two for many different reasons, especially price

Looking to hear from some owners of these bikes to fill me in on the pros and cons on the two and any other help and opinions to help me make up my mind

I am a fan of both yamaha and kawasaki. I picked my brute force 750 for several reasons.

A. Price.....the 750 was a lot cheaper

B. Dashboard..... I loved the kawasaki's being raised up off the handlebars, in my opinion, the grizzly's was to hard to read being way down by the base of the handles. I test drove both machines and the kawasaki's dash was 100% better in my opinion

C. EPS wasn't a huge deal for me. Its not overly difficult to steer a quad if you have any muscles at all. I looked at EPS being a potential major $$$$ if something goes wrong.

D. Both machines are about equal on power, so there wasn't really any disadvantage.

What the ultimate factor was, was the ride........in my opinion, the Kawasaki's ergonomics and ride just felt better to me. I loved everything about the quad and strongly feel as though I could NOT have made a better decision. I have ridden teh grizzly 700 eps since i've bought mine, adn I still agree. The brute force is a proven, reliable machine, and when push comes to shove, my hard earned money goes for kawasaki.

Whats the top speed of you Brute?
The Brute is like $2,500 less around here than the Grizz and that = like $4,000 once you put taxes and 5 years interest on that
I am starting to lean towards the Kawi
I have had a Yamaha for 7 years (trouble free) Kodiak 450 and want a change

Well, I just hit 60 miles, so I just got done with the break in.....I haven't had it over half-throttle....but from what im hearing on the other Kawasaki boards is anywhere between 65-72mph.
