Doesnt prove a thing to me. Looked like a somewhat different approach, definitly different speeds and It wasnt even the same rider for god sakes

Plus, the first Honda made it up just as easily as the Polaris.

Honda Foreman #1 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

In my book at least! I am surprised the belt in the Polaris didn't go out crossing the creek! hehe! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Just different riding technique.

From what I seen is the lazy right front wheel of the Foreman was just shooting out a sand squirt every other millisecond when a True 4wd would thrown a constant rooster tail from both front wheels "at once".

The right front wheel was just along for the ride.

If that's the case, if the guy knew how to ride he would have just squeezed the front brake to get both wheels spinning at the same speed.

the 680 sounded like it was in the wrong gear or not enough power to pull the weight. the Foreman was shameful just look at the guys face when he finally gets on top. if a rock was there for him to get under he would have

20% vehicle, 80% driver. This is the formula used when calculating the ability of a vehicle. You can win a drag race driving a lawn mower against a Viper if the Viper is being driven by a person who doesn't know how to drive a stick. I'm not saying that the Hondas are better or even as good as the Polaris, but this video proves absolutely, 100%, not a damn thing.

Not drivers ability but more like "law of Physics", 4wd will have better traction than 3wd evey time.
