Well I have to disagree with all the good things said about the Rubi compared to the 350 and 450. No doubt the rubi is a lovely quad, from what I've seen it can't do anything on the trail the 350 can't. I have one of the first 350's to come around here. The guy I ride with had a 450es before he bought his Ruby.Traded the 450 because of the rough ride on the trails. Although the Ruby rides alot beter than the 2000 450es, it is not as good in the trails as the 350. The power difference is very minimal as we have beeen wide open for more than a few miles several times. Around here anyway for the kind of use we use our quads for the value for the money is hard to beat on the 350. Light weight much easier on fuel and at over 4500 miles never even had to as much as adjust the brakes I can't complain about that. You might prfer the 450 or the Ruby but I highly recommend a good look or test ride of the 350 first.

I own both the 450 & Ruby,although I love them both,if I had to pick it would be the Ruby.The hondamatic is amazingly smooth and versatile.
