Hello folks, seriously considering getting a side by side. I am just not sure which one yet. A friend of mine has a '07 450 Rhino which he let me drive. Shocked at how well it rode, impressed I guess is a better word. My thing would be it did'nt seem to have a great deal of throtle response. Also it is a noisy ride, he had told me the 700 is quieter because the intake is under the hood on the 700.

I guess what I am trying to ask is there a great deal of difference between the 700 and 450. I am leaning more towards the 700 anyways just haven't got a chance to drive one yet.  I am used to a YFZ and I realize you can't compare the two. Due to a bad back I am going for the more comfortable ride, but at the same time I want somthing that will still get up and go. Thanks for any help you guys can give me.
