It would all come down to what kind of riding you are going to do... What kind of bikes do the people you ride with have...

Where I ride (Houston area) you get med to heavy mud with trail riding... The Bike I picked was the Wolverine 450 SE... It's sporty with 4X4... I didn't get a Grizzly because I didn't want to ride a box (but I do like the way they look)... I feel the best bike out there is the 700 Grizzly... All the mods you could want and a lot of people have them so picking what to add is easer... Good power and it's like riding a EZ-Boy... I would say Honda has a good line too...

I don't think it would be right to talk about the bike I never would own...

Hope this helps...

You need to list what you plan on doing with it, where you will ride it mostly, and what type of quads you'll be riding with mostly... Is Dif-lock a need? Do you plan on going mudding with it? That info will help us better identify the quad for you...

You should go get some seat time on all of them... The grizzly 700 works great in deep water. (just look at my pics) It's vents are all very high up on the quad. I don't want to bad mouth the other quads... but I don't own any of them for specific reasons...

Rincon - No Dif-lock. This is extremely important to me.

King Quad - not enough ground clearance.

Brute force - I don't like that dif-lock finger lever.

These aren't the only reasons... but they're the "nonfailure" reasons... (failures being quick belt wear, carb issues...)
