I hate to say it but I would probably pick a 500 over the 650 and I have ridden them both . I just think it is an awesome package unless you have to have one of the Bigguns .

Im not saying that the belt drive bikes are horrible, but once you get them wet they will never be the same. I would like to actually own one of the belt drive bikes because of the power some of them produce. The only reason I have not bought the Rincon is because the gear displacement is not what it should be.

If you take a Formen 450 and you put a big bore kit in it, it will be equivlent to the new Stock Foremen. A good friend of mine has 450 w/the big bore and he can turn 28 Outlaw like its nothing.

Im talking alot about Honda because I use mine and i put it to the test. But there are plenty of great bikes out there with plenty of power I just dont like the belts on them

I realy dont like the belt drives eather.  I was thinking real hard about the Vinson man trans.  I saw a Black one today wile riding out at Badluck and it was bad azz lookin. Also saw a Grizz and it was like a chery color red. Now that was a nice looking quad also.


i personally would consider one with a manual transmissin but an automatic clutch. i dont mind shifting and like the response of a manual transmission. does the vinson have an automatic clutch?

Well after lots of thaught and stairing at the websites doing lots of research. This is what it came down to. I cant see spending 7 to 8k on a new monster Quad. So I looked into used and low and behold I found this in the local paper.

2004 Honda Foreman Rubicon GPS, Winch, front a arm guards, gun rack, low hrs.     Check it out in the Pics

Thanks to everyone for the help but I went with the Bullet proof Honda.

1fast250r, That was the bike I was gonna tell you to get, but I thought you wanted to buy a newer model.  I have a Rubi 04 and the bike is a beast ( meaning GREAT ) I put it through hell and back and it still runs like the day I first got it.  Trust me, you've made a good choice.  Show us some pics !
