I would like other Owners opinions of the Rancher ES ie. Dependability

 

So far no worries!

Would like to see more aftermarket options availible, but know they'll come.

 

I'm with hunter. No problems at all. Very good choice of quad in my opinion!!




'01 Rancher 2x4 orange

 

754 miles & zero shifting or other problems. I have had one rivel pop out after a tree was kissed.

 

Couple of hundred miles. Recall service applied without incident. 1 Flat - Added slime to all 4 tires (and the Recon too). Lost about 6 rivits to trees so far, but the dealer keeps giving me free ones. Lost 1 rubber hub cap, didn't get that for free (about $5.00). No other problems.

 

About 700 miles with No probelms.
*** Bulletproof ***

 

i'm with them, about 750 miles and not a problem.trees are always jumping in front of me so yeah i lost a few rivets and a hubcap thing. HondaHunter what kind of things are you looking for? Maybe i can help ya.

 

1200 km's and the only thing that I had to do was clean the angle sensor and pack it with dielectric grease.

Temp

 

I flipped my 2001 Rancher4x4ES in a large mudhole, which burried the handlebars in the mud and water. After winching my quad back over, I couldnt even see the ES control due to the packed on gumbo mud on it. But luckily, it shifted fine and I rode it several more miles that day. I just took the ES control apart when I returned home and flushed it out with clean water to prevent any future problems. Bottom Line, I am very pleased with my Rancher and since I have bought mine several friends have seen the reliabilty, and have also bought them a Rancher.

 

2500 kilometers here and never even had to adjust the brakes yet. Not sure what all the hype about disc brakes is, mine never even got water in them yet and I have had it in lots of deep holes. I'm really happy with mine.
