Are you a Biden type person or Trump type fellow?

The system is more reliable than when they first came out. If that’s what you want get it. Possibility it will give you issues, yes. Chance isn’t that great though. I personally prefer the foot shift and I’ve owned both. Having your left hand “free” can be nice at times.

I’ve had both and rather foot shift. Frees up a hand for a cold beer.

Hard to hold a beer and shift at the same time... foot shift is way more efficient in that regard

I have electric shift and automatic. No issues with either. Dad has MS so foot shift was not an option.

I also prefer the foot shift because of the free hand thing.

I have the auto and electric...just pick with the turn of a switch. I grew up with a foot shite on my 86 fourtrax and figured I would use the auto occasionally but mainly use the electric shift. I currently have 300 hours on the bike now and have probably used the electric shift for 5 hours, max. AUTO is so damn nice.

I prefer ES on my foreman but I can also use foot shift. It’s just easier for me to use ES especially when the water is over the foot pegs and you have snakes swimming by

I went with foot so it would be more difficult for my son to go faster when he was younger.

Have an 06 foreman with foot shift, and will be in the market for a new foreman shortly....again with foot shift...noticed another thing this afternoon going in on a bowhunt...would be a pain to shift an ES while holding my bow with my left hand.

Have 2008 Honda Foreman 500 ES and PS.
Hunt swamp and have been in Reb Beer's situation more than once.
I went with ES and PS because of left and ankle and right shoulder problems.
Still riding it and have had not had 1 problem with either. As for shifting and drinking made a nifty drink holder out of short piece 4" in pvc pipe and 4 little pieces of 1" clear tubing. Will hold big yeti type stainless cup down to your favorite color alum can.
