Default Yamaha or Honda?

I've labored over which ATV to buy. My choices are: 2003 Kodiak 400 (new), 2004 Honda Rancher, or 2004 Yamaha Bruin. Any input or experience you have with any of these would be greatly appreciated!

I'm a Polaris fan myself,but out of the choices you just listed I would go with the Rancher.
Some people I ride with have them and they hold up well and can keep up in the swamp
I assume your talking 4x4 or in hondas case 3.5 x 4
If your talking 2x4...dont do it,youl regret it.

I have the 2003 Yamaha Kodiak 400 and just love it. No problems whatsoever. Here in WI started great all winter long and used for heavy plowing. My 2 cents.

Well, I bought the 03 Kodiak 400. I love it. I went with the 2wd, because I just didn't need 4wd. Thanks for the input.

Honda, while the yamie is a good bike I think in the long run the Honda will be the better choice.
