I say Suzuki but its all i have owned. Depends on what you want to do and about a hundred other decisions. There is no perfect quad.

Honda gets to be too low-tech. The drum brakes just don't get my speed down fast enough. Fun does not = ramming into the back of your dad's harley. >:(

There's no way I would pick brake performance over engine reliablility. But then again I don't come flying up on parked $10,000+ motorcycles. Don't see whay anyone would to be honest.

Exactly what do you mean by only true 4x4 ATV. There are many brands now that have a locking differetial. I will put my Bomb against any Polaris any day. You better do your homework before you post. Good luck. When you get stuck give me a call, I will get you out with my visco lock 4x4. Of course I will then bust your chops forever!!!LOL

As long as there's no deep water around, my friends BRP 800 just sees water and his belt starts slipping. LOL I always say the best ATV there is, is the one you get to go riding on. It seems on the trail if you get stuck (which we all do) it doesn't matter who pulls you out, as long as someone does. I will have to say, I had to put a winch on my Polaris, because when I do get stuck, unless there's another Polaris nearby no one else can get close enough to hook to my pull strap.

sometimes its not the brand name its the service ya get when they brake our local yamaha shop sucks
they always give ya the wrong advice never have the parts ya want in stock and when they order parts half the time they are the wrong thing
personaly i go to kawasaki to have work done if i cant do it myself
they work on anything and are half the price of yamaha
!! but i have the best luck with 4 stroke hondas they seem to be unbreakable for us i always have problems with yamahas i have three that are broken right now although i have a 1981 yamaha 175 that is old and super ugly never fails me remember everything breaks its all in the service and availability of parts and dont forget about the price
