I went to an atv park this weekend and was basically told by 2 people that my bike was a piece of trash. One had a honda and one had a popo. Is there something that I don't know? This bike has had all the recalls done, it burns no oil, rides and drives great, and looks good. It has 218 hrs and acts like it is new. I had about 450 pounds of payload (me, my gf, and my cooler and tools) and was going through stuff in 2wd with stock pxt tires that other guys riding single with mud tires were having to work to get through. I know there are more powerful, nicer, faster bikes out there, but I feel like I am still closer to the top of the food chain than a 420 rancher, or a carbed 500 popo.(that is what those guys had) Are 700's notorious for being bad? Maybe these guys were just dicks, but someone would have to have a pretty crappy bike for me to even hint at it, let alone tell them straight up. Any comments would be appreiciated.

 

if you like it, just ride it and enjoy. who gives a crap what those idiots think.

 

if they claim its junk, then their scared you might show em up. ive heard good things about them 700's. compared to them your not at the top of the food chain, you OWN the food chain...

 

Good ENGINE,GREAT TORQUE, GREAT ALSO THAT YOU DONT HAVE TO ADJUST VALVES! Tell em that as you BLAST past em!!

 

lol they have the trash

 

yeah, I raced the 420 rancher with my gf and the rest of my trail riding stuff and smoked him... bad. I even gave him the jump. Thanks guys.

 

I have one with over 4000 miles on it and its been a good machine, Ive done some upgrades , not cause I had to but cause I wanted to.

 

Man this world is full of mouth pieces these days! They don't like your 700 because they don't own it! A good friend of mine owns a 700 and it has been a great quad. Don't pay attention to the jack asses,they are around every corner!

420 Rancher LOL! A sp700 with smoke there 680 Rincon, my sp500 smokes 100lb lighter 500 Foreman and holds its own against a 680 Rincon. Honda Utility are always dead last in the HP department for there engine size.

Thats why Honda Utilities are so reliable, low power=less stress on motor components.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

and the rest of the machine last so long because the rider cannot ride it that much because the suspension is a design from 1992, IE it kicks your *** while riding it.
