If you're looking for a pure sport quad I'd look elsewhere.  The don't handle, jump, or launch like a traditional sport quad.

Cons:

Heavy for a sport quad
big for a sport quad
cvt tranny
shaft drive
stock shocks are very stiff
you'll be spanked by 450's all day long unless you do a bit of work

Pros:

With the right bolt on's and tuning you can get some really nice power without going into the motor
CVT tranny
shaft drive
size is great if you're  a bigger guy
they're alot of fun to ride

They do awesome on the trails.  Much more clearence than most sport quads and with the sealed rear brakes and shaft drive they are very mud, dirt, rock friendly.  The stock tie rods are weak, easily replaced with after market.  A good set of skids would be a good idea for a trail ripper.  Alot of folks put smaller tires on to lower the center of gravity and aid in sliding around but you'll still have more clearence than most other sport quads.  You should be able to find a good deal on one as they don't exactly fly off showroom floors.  :D
