I agree, and mine looks fairly good too, it's on it's 3rd set of stock tires right now. I just picked them up about 2 months ago.

Rancher or Foreman carbureted 4x4 manual shift.

Dont really give a shite about the display screen either. It is just another light in my face. Hate ES, and dont need power steering, disc brakes, or any fancy BS. I rode a Recon with no brakes for 2 years

<<----- 1987 2WD Honda Fourtrax still a beast and performs as well or better than my 2006 Honda. Brother in law just bought an '89 Fourtrax because those little green tanks are so reliable.

A 2wd 250 Yamaha bear tracker and 2wd 250 Yamaha bruin. Never had problems getting anywhere hunting with them. Next one will be a 4x4 350 Honda though, just getting the 4x4 for other riding and stuff. That won't be for years though.

I have a 400 Foreman, I think 98 model. I sunk it in water that was over my head and had to replace the jug and piston. So I went to the 450 jug cause it fits. Only problem I ever had out of that bike and it was cause I am stupid.

I see those up for sale all of the time, but the fricking people always put 29s on them. No way that rear end can hold up to that

I have a 2007 Rancher Manual shift 4x4...I have TRIED to kill it. I just can't. Plenty of power. Plenty of torque. Less money. Reliable as hell. Replaced the battery this year. Changed oil twice in it. Never changed the filter. Sink it on a regular basis.

Buy a used Japanese made one that is lightweight. A heavy 4 wheeler defeats the point and is just for show. I would rather have a lightweight 2wd than a 4x4 with a massive engine that sinks in the mud and needs 4 people to push it out of a bog.

If you are spending truck money on a 4 wheeler, I hope you are doing it because you are loaded and have nothing better to spend it on.
