The grizzly has diff lock and low range, the rincon has neither. For en easy ride I think the Rincon is great but for something real aggressive it lacks IMO.

The grizzly often has complaints because of stabilty but most people add a tire/wheel kit anyway, the wider offset wheels help a lot with that.

Great asessment. The Grizzley does have the Rincon beat in most categories. But you need to ride one to find out the differences.

The Rincon steers and handles better without the EPS than the Grizz with it. Rincon is much more stable unless you spend an extra grand on shock upgrades to the Grizz. But whatever you feel better on is the best one for you.

I would respectfully and toatly disagree with this statement. You might make that claim with any 4x4 quad without power steering but to say it does better than one with it could not be farther from the truth. I have owned plenty of quads without power sterring and none has worked even remotly as nice and smooth as any quad with it. It is not just the fact you have power steering it also fact you now have preventive kickback device as well! It has been working so well ALL major big bores for 2012 now have it as an option (Except the Honda Rincon) and that is saying something on how well it works and has caught on!

for me after all ive read and after seeing and sitting on both id go with the rincon.... IF it had diff lock, some type of low range/gear, and power steering as an option. (one i dont need) but otherwise for the features you get the grizzly is the easy choice

The Grizzly has all the features the Rincon has but the Rincon does not have the features the Grizzly has. To buy a ATV that has no AWD option and has low range is two feature that I would miss.
