WHO THE HELL PUTS IRS ON A SPORT QUAD?!?! Ya know what, this is a rhetorical question. The answer? Polaris. Anyone seen the Polaris Outlaw? Looks pretty sweet, except it has IRS!! Click the pic for the website.

Looks sweet to me. I would have to give it a ride to see if I liked it.

If you guys think that is going to ride like a utility type rear suspension, you're mistaken. They did it with street cars remember, and it ended up being stickier than a solid axle. Just looking at that, I can see that caster, camber, and toe changes during jounce and rebound will not be like a utility bike. The "roll" is pretty well under control, etc. Looks to me more about keeping the wheels on the ground than about keeping the rider comfortable. I would bet it's quite a machine. Just for the record though, even if I thought I were going to get a sport bike, you wouldn't catch me on that one. That thing just looks goofy from the back side, so I wouldn't want to lead the pack, and If I wanted to bring up the back, I'd get a Yamaha. ;D
