1900 miles with one electrical problem. Rectifier had to be replaced after 400 miles. 40 dollar part covered under warranty and not a problem since. I am the only person that I know of to have this problem. Other than that its been great.

As a proud owner of a 01 Ruicaon I think I should have been hired by Honda. I've done things that are almost unspeakable to this machine. I've repeatedly been in water over 3' deep (yes that's three FEET). It usually dies but after draining water from muffler and removing spark plug and clearing cylinder it runs as good as ever. Did have a speed sensor fail and a battery but considering how I treat this machine I would not own anything else!!!!

We've had our 01 doing about anything imagineable on our farm from pulling a harrow, wagons, water tanks & trailors to spraying fence lines & climbing hills and fording creeks. At over 3,000 miles & absolutely no problems I'm really impressed. Great machine, rock solid.
