Greg, Agree on the Honda and drum brakes, I can't believe Honda is still using that brake setup on their new super foreman. Know of guys with the Hondas, and after many miles the drum brakes are real bad, leaking water in and rusting everything, makes a mess.
Have had a Foreman 450ES, did fine but too light and weak for my needs. Know your going to laugh but I have a Traxter, it is not for racing. It is alot of fun goes many places many of the other 4X4 units cant due to high center on rear axle and not able to pull with both front wheels.
It does work super and have only put it up nose to nose with the grizzly, and that was a joke, when done I didnt even feel good about it, about the same as if it had just over powered a tricyle with a 4 year old.
To each his own, I have no beefs with the Polaris, but was just wondering why with all the negative I hear and read, so thought I would ask.
Thanks for response

 

Hey Dogbreath in Ohio,
If your wonder dog is so great, why all the options ??

 

I f I were to purchase a bike with a solid rear axel, I would have chosen the Traxter or the Rubi. I looked at the Traxter and thought it was awesome, but for East Texas ground clearance is very important. I also love the smooth ride of the SP500. I bet the Traxter will be more reliable though. My bikes are just for fun though. No heavy work.
