How fast does a Foreman go and can u ride wheelies and whats the ground clearnce im thinkin of selling my sacrambler for one

 

Foreman is not a wheelie machine, at least not mine with full time 4wd. Ground clearance and suspension are good for their intended purpose, which is longterm reliability and toughness in the roughest terrain. Top speed rarely exceeds 50. It ain't your scrambler by a long stretch. It is slower, steadier, tougher, capable of more work, and dramatically more reliable. According to what I read, hear and see, the Kaw 650 is the sportiest of the current "sport-utility" class. I was glad to go from a Polaris Explorer 400 4x4 to the 450S Honda, because I was tired of breaking down and missing riding while the Po was in the shop. I still have an old Polaris 350L 2wd with 1000 miles, its the wife's machine. She likes the stability and ease of operation, but sometimes the Foreman has to drag it back to the truck when it pukes. Foreman is like a stock Toyota Landcruiser, no blazing speed but tough and longlasting. Other new, sporty 4x4s are the Vinson and the Grizzly. I'm planning on making my 450 more sporty by putting Warn's 2-4wd lockable front drive shaft in, maybe see a few wheelies then. The Foreman jumps like a loaded dump truck. There is a report on longterm reliability and satisfaction of a 450S in the current issue of 4 Wheel ATV Action. It says there is nothing negative about the 450S despite extremely tough utility use. Hope that helps, good luck.

 

Ground clearance is 7.7 in.

Can't go wrong with the Foreman. It's a tough machine and about the only thing to look out for on them is the front wheel bearings if you tend to stay in the mud alot.

I think the top speed is 42mph. I, personally, would NEVER buy a Honda Utility Quad (except that new 650!!), they are made -just- for the farmer. They are slow, Honda has jsut started putting a selectable 2WD/4WD on it (most were 4wd all the time--meaning NO sliding--Meaning NO FUN). As good as work machines as they are, there are SO many other choices. Every other quad makers utility atv's are not only work horses but they are great for the trailrider. Most go anywhere from 55mph upto 65mph compared to hondas 42mph. If you ahve a Scrambler, especially if its a 2 stroke 400 OR the 4x4 500, Dont even consider it.
