Should i get fuel injected or not. I own a foreman and love it, plus my wife likes the electic shift option of hondas.

This atv will not be set up for major mudding like my foreman. I'll have 28's on it and probably snorkel it along with 2" lift.

Mostly used for around the farm and trail riding.

Do it. No gunked up carb to worry with and cold starting won't be a problem. Thank me later!

Yes, my 420 is fuel injected and it is awesome.
The 4x4 is probably one of the toughest bikes I've ever ridden.

I wasn't aware that you could still buy them without efi.

I'm not a fan of this. I have a 2010 2wd manual shift and a 2011 4wd automatic. Automatic is the shizz

major mudding to me




mostly the 420 will be used to go through sloughs, bayous, and river bottoms about 2-3 ft deep.

I have a fuel injected rancher and no problems so far. My buddy has power steering on his and i rode it recently and i highly recommend it especially when going through rough terrain. your wife would prolly like the power steering also, it makes the bike easy to control.
