I love my Polaris - but just buy what you like and feels good to you - every brand has thier issues

 

If you spend the 4k and trade in the sportsman, you should be able to get most of the big bore quads out there. So let's go thru a list of things you want... and we'll eliminate some of the quads that don't have the features you want...

Just answer yes or no to the following.

1. Does the bike need to be efi?
2. Does it need to have 4wd?
3. Does it have to have diff-lock?
4. Do you plan to go mudding a lot?
5. Do you plan to trail ride a lot?
6. Do you want something bigger than a 450cc?

 

The answer to his question is really simple, too bad its so expensive. He wants to know what the best ATV is, ... its the new Arctic Cat Thunder Cat 950. That much power makes it the best, no matter what else is in the mix. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I like buddy the dog. Cute little fella.

 

Depends on what you want out of it. Each is good in certain areas.

I'm sticking with Arctic Cat, as I've had a 500i since 2002, and it has been extremely reliable. Five years of farm work, and I had one fouled spark plug, and one broken axle (my fault, tried to goose it with a log jammed between the rear wheels and a trailer full of firewood behind - snapped the tip off of the axle)

AC is probably the best rough ground crawler. Grizz and Zuki, the only other big utes I've ridden, have better handling, but not quite as good rough ground capability.

Truth is, they're all very good at just about anything. See who will give you the best deal, and you'll be happy.

 

The best ATV is whatever one I am riding.

 

come on guys, we all know its honda!!!

 

the best ATV in your situation is the best deal you can locate on a quad that hasn't been neglected or abused.

Impossible to say 'what is best'. perhaps the best quad in 02 was x brand, but in 04 y brand had a better quad than the 02 x brand, but not better than an 04 x brand!
