Hey I would like to know how happy Rubicon owners are with their choice of Quad or would they choose something else if they had to do it again?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I like my so far I only have about 600Km on it.A couple of things I would like is abit more top end and softer suspension.But I have changed the shocks and find it much improved from stock.The biggest complaint is the seat is really hard.(compared to my TRX 350)

I was in a Honda dealership the other day, a Rubicon and a Fourtrax 350 were sitting side by side and the seats look the same. I have a Fourtrax now and after a few hours the seat gets a little uncomfortable![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

The shocks that I put in are made by Kimpex.They are really for a Polaris snowmobile.They are a bit longer then stock and alot softer,I really like them because they are adjustable.The springs are from a Skidoo Formula III 600 but the stock can work.I am going to get a pair of their proggressive springs next and see how they will work.

Come on Plunker I think you've read enough positive remarks concerning
the Rubicon just go and get one so I can come over and try it out.

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Honda needs to get a Yellow 2002 over to McGuire's in Essex and we can get things rolling, the Rancher is stripped of all extras and is ready to be dealt in. Are you sure you don't want it, would look good sitting next to the Wife's!!!
