05 Honda Rubicon or 06 Honda Rincon
I am looking to buy either the 05 rubicon or 06 rincon. what is the best?
<u>Rincon</u> <u>Rubicon</u>
Pros Good acceleration D1 & D2
EFI Tougher
IRS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cons High geared Rough Ride w/ straight axle
Only 3 Gears No EFI
No engine braking Not as good acceleration
Does EFI really help that much in cold winters?
I am mainly going to use this for trail riding. But when I want it to do some work, I want the job done. I am also going to use it for ice fishing on the frozen lakes? What do you think would be the right choice? thanks

I like the Rubicon, it has alot more choices for gear selection and is pretty stout. The ride is decent, if you can find a Rubicon Canadian Trail Edition from Canada BUY IT. It has model specific shocks that offer the best ride of any SRA bike.
I've never had a problem with a carb and cold winters, the Rubi should have a carb heater like the Foreman, I just turn the key on for about 10 seconds, open the choke and the bike fires up right away. EFI helps more with altitude changes, and isnt forgiving if you get water in the gas in the winter.
The rincon has much poorer engine braking, so your on the brakes alot more.
