The Honda Dealer around here had the Kawasaki 300 Brute Forces beside their Recons.. The Brutes being just 100 dollars more I tried to get one, the salesman was inside for I kid you not, 30 seconds and told me I couldnt get financed through Kawasaki but Honda would since Honda is a more established company.. I told him if he put bigger tires on the Recon, motor, and made it a automatic I might be interested. Lets just say I ended up with a Yahama 300 Grizzly. lol

 

ha! have you ever heard the time tested quote "do one thing, do it well"? i am guessing honda hasnt heard that. i once heard somebody use one word to describe 99% of hondas products, and it has stuck ever since; "STALE".
