I have a new 03' Honda Rancher ES that I plan on using for hunting and general work at the cabin - and am considering getting camo fender and seat covers to help protect from scratches. Has anyone used these before? Are they easy to put on the 4 wheeler? Do they look good? Easy to clean? I'd like some feedback before I spend the cash..... Thanks!

Also, I just purchased an ATV drop basket rack from Cabela's. It seems like a worthwhile investment for being able to haul tools, wood, gun, bow, etc... Anyone have any thoughts on this type of basket?

 

I took a long look at, and then decided against the camo covers. My Rancher is green and if I decide it needs camo I'll buy a cheap camo net at the local surplus store.

I am, however, very interested the the Cabelas drop basket for my new Rancher. Any comments or other suggestions for similar equipment?

 

I just installed the drop basket over the weekend - it looks great and am excited to get out in the fields at the cabin to get some work done. I checked out the rear flat rack and front rack - however went for the drop basket to ensure that 5 gallon pails and tools wouldn't bounce out.

 

SMR,
Please let me know how the basket works under real use. It sounds as though you and I have pretty much the same applications, but in addition to ranch work, I need it for prospecting out in the desert.

 

I also have a new 03 ES 4x4 and am wondering the same thing about the fender covers..............worth the $115? And does it actually protect the fenders without looking tacky?
