Default Honda is loosing.

Yeah but the question still remains can this datsun-turbocharged,nitrous injected afraidium case 185s have a hitch and can it pull my 3500 dodge ram with the fifth-wheel full of concrete out of the mud? If so I'll trade ya my ds650 and the 400ex for that 185....let me know when you can get to that stuck truck and we can make the trade.

That was my thought too. Why are some people so brand loyal? They've actually got to go through all the trouble of creating an account just to bash another brand. That is so dam retarded. The truth of the matter is that all the major brands out right now make very nice, reliable machines and you should be proud to own whatever it is that you ride.

We tow daily .. And most of our towing is with larger trailers (floats) 14-18 ft. skid-steer/mini hoe type ... We only use Hondas to tow with , 2 weeks ago we tried a Bomb (2 up) traxter and almost didn't make it up the small hill to the compound .. Never tried a Polaris but I'm not a fan of belt drive .. We use Rubicons to tow with ..
I've never ridden a traxter, but I think that's probably another example of using the wrong tool for the job. Try an outlander 800 next time!

Honda is the industries best selling quad, and the Rancher is Honda's best seller. This proves where the majority market is....mid size machines in the ~400cc class. Honda is laughing at the rest of them....all the way to the bank!
Can-Am is aiming at that market with their new 500, looks like it will be pretty nice. Sometimes, the money is in the niche markets. But the big bore popularity makes for more than just a niche market, and I'd say it's a large part of the market. But the bread and butter probably is in the mid-sizes. It use to be the sport quads that had the largest share.

Well i just wrote a long reply giving my two cents but the D__M thing didnt go through and erased. To make a long story short Honda makes a qaulity product. If you need the big machines choose the right tool for the product. Dont be pissed at honda for not making a 4 wheeler that copares to them. Just go buy one of them. For the money Honda is the way to go. My 06 Honda Foreman 500 has not problems going through anything i need it to go through, and deffiniatly does not have a problem turning over the tires.
