WHAT ATV DO YOU HAVE, WHY DO YOU LIKE IT?

Been looking at a few different models. So far I like this one, Honda Foreman ES 500cc in Olive. Red wouldn't set with me because of hunting with it! The ones with the independent suspensions are nice, but man are they pricey! Price is about $6500. Not sure if I want to spend that though!

My brother has a 300cc and my sister has a 350cc. I rode then over Memorial weekend and had a blast! Now I want one! LOL!

Honda is the way to go. We have 3 foremans and a foretrax. They were built to work. You can beat up on them and they won't break. Parts and service is really easy, at least where I live.

Most of the other four wheelers I see just don't look like they're meant to be driven, It seems like their plastic fenders will scratch and crack as soon as you get in the woods.

I have an old Yamaha Moto4. Ive got like $400 in it so thats why I like it!

I also have an old Honda 3-Wheeler, 225. I have roughly $175 in it.

A guy I work with it trying to sell me a Polaris 500 Sportsman that needs a new radiator ($300) and tires for $500. I may buy it. It really is clean, just needs a few small things. I would have well under $1000 in the bike.

2001 Honda Rubicon

It has been a good atv for me, but it's about time to upgrade. The Rubicon's hydro tranny is simply awesome. I've used it for work, hunting, and for play. I make at least one atv riding trip per year, so I get to ride with every atv made. While I like my Rubicon, I'm not closed-minded enough to think that Honda is the only (or even the best) manufacturer out there. All companies are making good products nowadays, and all will occasionally have a lemon.

i've seen many tests, and just lookin at other websites/forums. It seems that Arctic Cat makes the best quads for the money. More ground clearance, most of 'em have racks that can hold 200 pounds on the back(which is a LOT for a rack) If I ever buy a quad, it's gonna be a cat.

But since you asked which atv I have, it's a Honda 110 ATC 3 wheeler. YEEEEEHHAAAAAAAAWWW

2002 Yamaha Big Bear 400. It's a really good tough machine. Very low first gear and good ground clearance for a solid rear axel. I like the on demand 4 wheel drive. Only draw back is top cruising speed is about 35-40 mph. One more gear and it would be the perfect ride.

mine - 92 Kawasaki Bayou 220

brother's - 2000 Honda Recon

future in-law's - 03 Honda Rancher ES

My brother and I hunt and ride quite a bit and have those small ones. My future in-laws don't hunt and barely ride theirs and they have the big one. Wish I could use it to hunt and ride at home. frown.gifmad.gif
