Look's fun, though I prefer the Banchee and Raptor's at 90mph.

The only time 2WD is better than 4WD is on a Banchee

There is a local shop here with a big display of ATV's outside their store, I always dream about having one everytime I drive by the shop. Looks like you had tons of fun from looking at the pictures. You lucky dog!

I rode Rincon and it seemed very low on power compared to the Grizzly.... It is very nice however. I am not sure why Honda used such low performance 2 valve OHV motor, when all the competition is doing 4-5 valves per cylinder and twin motors. I guess they are trying to achieve the most reliability in its class, ro something.

Looks like you guys had fun! Ive been begging my boss to let me take his Polaris "professional" UTV to an off-road park. Those things are pretty crazy. I think its sprung a little to tight, as its made for a big payload. It's got a rear locker, push button 4wd and winch make up for the low articulation (without a payload) in the rear. I'm in the middle of switching web sites otherwise I'd post a picture. Ive gotten to mess with it a bit, but nothing too serious. We use it to plow in the winter as well as hiking trail maintnance and yard work. Its quite a nice unit. buuuuuut shouldn't this thread be in the off-road section?

I tried to buy one, but dealership acted like those are pure gold and would not go below $6500 + whole bunch of some ripoff fees, like $275 for destination and $400 prep fee + tax, anyways I got brand new Grizzly for $6200 + Tax out of the door.
I also did not like the idea of 3 speed automatic, instead of the
v-belt. I have to agree, Rincon is the best looking ATV and honda does make them nice. I had Yamaha before and know that these guys take amazing amount of beating and hold together.
