<div class="FTQUOTE"><begin quote>they are relative newcomers</end quote></div>
Polaris has been making ATVs since 1985, thats 20 years! How long do you think it would take a manufacture of Snowmobiles,PWC and Motorcycles to figger out how to build a simple ATV? Its not a space shuttle or anything.
That goes for AC and Can Am (Ski-Doo) as well.
Honda never made a Snowmobile in there history but if they did I bet they could build a good one on there first try.

There is a lot more to handling than just "fast". Any idiot can throw a huge motor in a frame...doesn't mean it will handle well, does it! I really think the three NA manufacturers have gone off the deep end in an attempt to build huge cushy mush boxes.
And yes, I have ridden lots of them. Mostly it's a scary experience to get off camber in and huge tall mushy suspended 800 pound monster!!!</end quote></div>
You'd better watch out CanAm DS450 are fast and handle and light. Polarsi Outlaw and KTM are very fast and handle. I guess you wouldn't know being last on that Hondo.
As for utility quads just about any other manufactuer has a better quad than those Hondas you have listed. Whats the differance if 800lbs. or 600 lbs. smash you?
Hook a Hondo up to a CanAm or Polaris and they'll be dragging you around! Weight on a utility quad has advantages for utilty work! Heavy like a tank not a lightweight Sammy. Want a Sammy get the Renegade or Scrambler. Gee Honda doesn't make a light weight sport 4wd quad! Get my point?
