Default arctic cat vs honda

I haven't ever noticed anything spectacular about Honda's 4x4 system. No better or worse than Arctic Cat, and worse now that the 05 will lock. Rubicon is the best thing Honda makes though in my opinion. A good quad. I've seen 2 of them go to crap, but they were both abused bad. Any bike would have fallen apart under those conditions.

your 03 500i had the 4wd system that i refer to as the one wheel wonder 4wd and that is the exact same system that honda has used for how long????? the one wheel wonder system is nice when you need to go places and gotta take corners nice but after having the locking system there is no comparison once you got the true 4x4 system there is no looking back

The limited slip front end on his honda is new so it probably works,for now,but wait untill he spins it good a couple of times.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I've ridden a lot with Rubicons, and I've never seen a Rubicon do anything that a 454 wouldn't do. Mud, climbing, etc. Maybe AC has a different differential than they did on the 98-99's now, but those were every bit as good as Honda's differential it puts in Rubicons and Ranchers.

Mudblaster, I'm confused.. Looking over your old posts, when you had the AC, you said you had your axle replaced under warranty. You've also made the following comment :
i've never had a problem with my dealer and the few problems i had with my cat thay fixed without any questions.
