I am looking to buy a used honda 4x4. I am looking to obviously getting the best bike for my money. I am looking to spend around $4000 cdn. Currently I have seen a 1996 Honda Foreman 400cc with lots of extra's and is in great shape for around $4200?? What should I expect for spending $4000??

you could get an almost new 4x4 for 4000 canadian, look at the 06 ranchers, but if you really want used that foreman looks a little expensive for being 10 years old

I have an 03 foreman 450 , and i was thinking of selling it. I was gonna start around 4000 US. Thats with low miles, welll taken care of, and needs nothing.
A 1996 for more? Its way over priced, keep looking.
Theres nothing wrong with an older foreman, they are great utility machines..its just thats old limited slip technology, and 10 year old rubber and metal, and the toughest thing on a vehicle is to let it sit...unused. Keep looking, youll find better, for less.
