whats your favorite honda of all time? mine would have to be the 300ex and 200sx.

 

hey i have a 450s and love it more than anything but for long time i drove a 400ex and loved that alote but i think my favorite would be the new HONDA FOREMAN RUBICON 500 thats coming out i know it hasn't come out yet but i know that will be my favorite atv.

 

of course you didnt forget about the legendary 250r that everyone of us wish they still made

 

My fondest memories would have to be of my first Honda an ATC 90. It was a great little machine that I never had to repair and basically I just ran it into the ground sometime around 1988. I learned how to ride on it and basically rode it almost everyday.

I also enjoyed my next Honda the TRX250R it was a great machine too, and I rode that machine alot too. If I could I would have never sold it. I bought it for $550 one night at 1 a.m. and brought it home on the roof of my mother's Cherokee. I spent about 2 months fixing it before I ever got to start it.

Another Honda I have great memories with was my CR125, I hope it doesnt offend anyone bringing up a dirtbike, but it is a Honda. It was a great running machine, and I really enjoyed racing it. It only let me down once. I snappped the main shaft in half approaching a short attempt double, but I took it apart on my mother's kitchen table and had it back together in two days.

Also my latest Honda, is a great machine too.
the 400EX is a very nice machine definitely an easy machine to ride. Almost as easy to ride as my old 90.

I've owned 3 300 4x4s since 1988 and now own a rancher es, but my best times were spent on a 1985 200x.

I miss that thing.................

 

My favorite is any Honda that when I got on it, kicked it or hit the starter and it started. I've ridden an ATC250R (I think) 3-wheeler, a 250R heavily mods, Fourtrax 300, Recon 250 and now a Rancher, and they've all been great!

But then again, why not! They're all Honda's.

 

Hmm wow.. hard subject.. all hondas are my favoret. I think the 400EX is my favert sport ATV, the Rancher the Ulit and the XR400 in trail bikes and of course the CR's in Motocross. Im sure the new rubicon will soon take the lead in my book though

guys let's be real here for a second. the 250R is a really great bike, but however without a doubt my favorite honda would be a 250X this bike was honda 1st four-stroke play bike and look what led the way to a 300EX and eventually led to a 400EX. i have an 87' 250X that bike is 13 years old and has never been rebuilt i beat the living crape out of it and it still starts on the first kick. i got mad when they tested the 400EX against the 250R and they brought out a 300EX they should have brought out a 250X i think! well i don't mean to offend anyone but think about what i write.

 

I loved the old 200X and 200S.I love those machines!!
