Go to the Highlifter website. They talk about all of these 4x4s. If I were you I would get the Arctic Cat. My buddy just got one and we put 27" outlaws, a lift, and wheels and that thing is huge! I am pretty positive it does have the same motor as the vinson but it sure is alot nicer atv due to irs

Hollywood, I would go with the foreman 500.

Check out hondaforeman.com

Cain't beat the dependability. With the Perfex suspension upgrade, it rides very much better.

Hollywood, I forgot another thing I don't like about the IRS.  Have you seen me put the bike on two wheels on the side?  You can't do that w/ the IRS.  I would agree w/ everyone that it does make for a nice ride.  But it does have some limitations.

You can do that with IRS All Day long The only Down Fall To a IRS is that its 2 more axles to replace!

Yea I've been doing some reading on there checking things out.  Wink That's where I am leaning right now. I really like the AC500 too and even though the IRS is nice I really don't see where I would need it that much plus that's just more stuff to break. Got to love the simplicity and reliabilty of the old air cooled, straight axle Foreman.

Ground clearance is the key to the big IRS bikes . I have a Cat 500 man . Locking diff , huge gas tank ..put on a set of 27's jet kit and it becomes an extremely capable machine .But the little hondas are great quads also .I just think the 500 Cat is a great quad ! And I'm saying purely as an enthusiast .

lol You guys are making this a tough decision! Honestly what I have read so far on the Cat I am not impressed....broken diff. housings, broken axles and poor customer service for repairs. Not exactly what I am looking to get into.  Roll Eyes
