I hunt with probably 20 different folks. Between us all over the past 20-25 years or so we have covered the spectrum when it comes to ATV's and UTV's. I may be blowing smoke up my own rear, but seems to me that if the ATV is taken care of as recommended and not asked to do more than it is capable ... and not "raw hided" any brand does fine. Though I own 2 Polaris machines (and both have been 100% great), from what I have seen of others' ATV's, the Honda is a great machine. Wonder why they have not hit the UTV market?
