I am going to look at the bombardier ATVs. I don't think I'm going to have trouble stepping over an ATV as I'm 6'7" and can still lift my leg pretty high but I'll see.

I'm am definitely getting an IRS machine. The smooth ride is mandatory as is a fully locking 4x4 system and lots of power. I need something to push snow, pull a brush mower, haul around a sprayer and basically be my legs on the farm. The the ones on my list so far are:
The Kawasaki Brute Force
The Polaris 800 EFI
The Yamaha Grizzly 660
The Bombardier Traxter 650

If I was buying today it would be the BF. When I pull the trigger and buy one in the fall who knows. I'm a longtime Honda fan as I use to have a 88 300 fourtrax 4x4. The problem with Honda now is the lack of a fully locking diff and it seems they haven't quite kept up in the power department. They have some really innovative stuff but they just seem to fall a bit short of the other quads these days. If the Rincon had a locking front diff and a little more engine power it would be on my list. I really like the styling of the rincon. It flat out looks cool.

I know a man who lost his right leg and still is an avid atv rider. He has a polaris sportsman 500 4x4. Up until 2 years ago, he was still racing and winning rubber class atv ice races at the district level.
