Foreman vs Rubicon

Congrads on the rube as well. The tranny is the best out there bar none...IMO. For a 500cc class atv, it is probably the tops or close to it.

The Carb version already is the best of its class, and now with EFI, there will be no comparisons. And Polaris has come ALONG way for making their rep for unreliability dissapear. From the choices you listed, They are all good quads. I love Honda, i love ESP, and i love the Rubi's Auto. Good Luck, i dont think you can make a wrong decision.

Best of it's class? Are we forgetting the Vinson?

Good point goblin! and if were talking 05's I would put a new Rubester up against any sp500 and tan him in any catagory including power and suspension too (since mine is a CTE). I no this to be true since I've already spanked a few of em. I would give the nod to the Ruby over a Vinson too. It's that tranny on the Rube that sets it apart, and it's been revised/improved for 05.

Foreman vs Rubicon

I agree - not too many feelings that come close to bringing home a BRAND NEW quad! One comes to mind, but many of us might (and I say might) even consider that feeling a close second. Hmmmmm...... Have to think about that one for a while.

Dumb question. This thread has been going for some time and I just realized the title "Foreman vs. Rubicon". Isn't a Rubicon also a Foreman? I have a 2004 Honda Foreman but it's also the Rubicon Model. At least it says both on the side of my gas tank.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
