06 Yamaha Kodiak 450 with 27" 589's. Big difference vs stock, now I don't have to worry about getting stuck like I did when I use to hit the other tracks in the muds with the stock tires. The 589's are awesome in the mud!

OK....so what 4x4 fourwheelers are there that dont have the gosh forsaken belt drive. I heard all the do is get wet and start slipping. I would like to buy a ATV that I wont have to worry about getting something wet and it not running properly.
I just bought a Hemsin 400 4x4. It has a Yamaha 400 engine.
OK......anyway I got a great deal on it...3000....brand new with 1 yr warranty. But I took it out and am kinda not impressed.
I have been riding for a long time and got it B\C it is all mechanical. It has manual shift, and a actual lever for the transfer case. There is no push button this or electronic that.
Again...anyway...it has ONE shock for the rear axle and in my opinion the suspension sucks. Also...when i took it on the road it only got up to about 30mph. I wasnt going full out, but to me it does not feel very peppy for a 400cc. I was looking at throttle cable and carb linkage. When I have the throttle wide open it looks like it is only opening up around 60-70%.
Are new quads DE-tuned? IS it set like that to make sure the motor is broke in properly (SO you dont over rev it)?
Long story short.....I think I am going to sell my BRAND NEW Hemsin and just buy something used for around 4000. I have found Vinsons and Praries but after a quick bit of research I see they have belt drives. I enjoy going mudding and offroading more than anything and want something that can hold up to my abuse. NO BELT DRIVES
