I been round this forum for some time now and seems alot of threads usually turn into, "Mines bettern yern, and Mines bettern hisn's" so on and so forth. Now I guess I'm just as guilty for some of that.
This past weekend on one of our rides we had 9 bikes on the trail. We mainly ride gravel roads and some back logging roads. This was the roster that day. Out 800 (me), 2 Kaw 360's, 1 Kaw 650, 1 Pol 400, 1 Pol 450, 1 Pol 700efi, 1 Pol 500, 1 Suz 250. Guess what I found out. We rode approx 55 miles, no one broke down, every where that one bike went all the rest was ready, willing and able to follow. Imagine that. Mine wasn't bettern hisn's and hern's wernt any dang bettern than younses.
My point is there was no King of the Hill that day and sometimes we can get over passionate about our particular machines. But when we load up and hit the trail, "It's all good"..

yep. agreed. the best machine is the one that brings the most enjoyment to the owner. i rode a Suzuki 250 4x4 for a lot of years and that danged little thing went EVERYWHERE. it just took me a while to get there. i would have to call that anemic little atv with minimal suspension travel one of my all time favorites. won't go faster than 40mph or so...
in my beat down little area, we run an assortment of motly atvs and we don't give a hoot if one guy can't afford the fastest, or the best tires, ect... we just hop on 'em and go ride, and sometimes the puny old machine with mis-matched tires and plastic stitched up with baling wire does the best. we don't care either...

I couldn't agree more. On my last ride, there was a couple of othher much larger machines that my rancher 350 which I just bought. These guys were riding places that I would have never dreamed of going. But I followed them anyway thinking they would pull me out if I got stuck. Well, I never got stuck, crawled over huge logs, up steep hills and through some deep mud and water. The other guys were amazed at what my "little" 4 wheeler would do.

This is why I was forced to upgrade from a Sportsman 400 to a KQ 700...but now I may need to upgrade from my KQ.
