I am certainly not brand specfic on my choices of ATVs. If I won the lottery this is what would be in my garage (1 of many garages that is!):

Big Bore 4x4 - Polaris Sportsman 500 HO
Hi Performance - Yamaha Raptor
Sport 4x4 - Scramber 400 4x4
Utility Quad - Rubicon 500
Dune Machine - Banshee
Ongoing Project Machine - Honda 250r
Trail machines for my Buddies - Honda 400ex
4x4 for My Buddies - Mag 325

HEY! It's a big lottery win, ok!

Of course the bigbore could change after I try the Kawi 650.

There is censorship going on here. I posted a few hours ago a comment about this mushy multi-brand stuff, and went on to say that Polaris Sucks. Most of you know I ride Polaris and I have been extremely pleased with my bike. I was just bringing attention to the fact that the brand bashing is sometimes entertaining, and at other times hilarious. It is even funnier that someone took the time to delete my post. So, if you guys get confused when you read the post that says... So do you!!! That is directed at me. Must be a polaris guy that does not know I am a polaris guy.

LMAO

This is a good topic. It cracks me up how people argue over that crap anyway. My neighbor who was Mr. Honda (Dirt bikes only too) couldn't believe I bought a Polaris. "You'll be sorry you bought that thing..." When I invited him to go throw some snow around last Sunday and ride the SP335, he went and at the end of the day I don't recall hearing any Polaris bashing, as a matter of fact he was talking about how he never got stuck. (I'm sure it was all rider, yeah right!)
Let's face it these things are just flat out fun to ride. Regardless who's name is on the side of it.

I drive a polaris and like it overall but am looking at trading it for a raptor. I like honda a lot as well. I think that once you get on the trails no one realy cares what you drive. If you want a good laugh go look at the topic 500 4x4 scrambler vs. 400ex. That turned out to be one of the largest brand bashes ive seen sence ive been here. If you are arguing over whitch one is better the only thing you acomplish is wasted riding time. Just ride what you want and dont wory abought the rest.

Bassplayer if harley made a quad that would be sick.
I've seen in a copy of easyrider a sportster engine stuffed inside a trx250r frame, two words "I WANT".
It had the twin pipes coming out the rear, chrome this, chrome that, and a blat that would drown out any other 4 stroke engine.

I hear you! I've been pro-Honda since I bought 2 of them b/c of the reliability factor, but here I am considering trading my Honda Recon for a Yamaha Banshee. Who ever would have thought?! Now (maybe) we'll be a 2 brand family.

Just poking fun Greg. I would ride with you if you only had A MOPED. I play Bass guitar for A living and JAZZ is my choice but pays little money. Think of the trash I here when my JAZZ bros come to A gig and here 75% disco and funk! It's ok with me, they all have to go to work the next day. I play 2 or 3 nights A week, and ride my Harley and Polaris quads all day every day. I live on A 100 acre Christmas Tree Farm and only 20 miles from Roy A. Taylor ATV Park in the N.C. Mountains. Nothing like A killer band or A sloppy mud hole. Time to go for A ride. PEACE AND MUD TO US ALL !

Since this topic posted, 2 Honda guys have told the Polaris forum how their quads suck, and Honda rules.
