World’s Fastest ATV: 2008 Polaris Outlaw 525 IRS
April 3rd, 2008 by BallerRide 14 Comments 
With acceleration and top speed that beats out the best competition, the 2008 Polaris Outlaw 525 IRS is the fastest ATV on the market. The Outlaw 525 is a performance/sport ATV which is best for dunes and racing, as opposed to sport models which are made for back country and can take a serious beating. The Polaris Outlaw 525 IRS comes with a five speed transmission which includes reverse and an engine with over 510cc displacement. IRS, for those who are new to the ATV world, stands for independent rear suspension meaning that each wheel is free to do its own thing.
The Polaris Outlaw 525 recently received a recall for a retention bolt that came loose in less than 0.001% of vehicles causing a loss of control. The problem can be fixed for free at any Polaris dealer, and the Outlaw ATV is still the fastest one out there. The fastest ATV can be yours for the price of $6,900-7,400 depending on your specific modifications. 0-50 acceleration racing times and more pics after the jump.

TRX450R - 6.21 seconds

I know for a fact that the Raptor is way faster than the Outlaw!! My DS650 Baja can waste that lil Outlaw no problem… The Raptor 700 and the Ds650 are a close match and both ATV’s blow the Outlaw outta the water
