What atv you run
 

just wondering what everyone uses for an atv i have a 99 polaris magnum 500 great rig have a 2500# warn winch fender bags and still looking for a gun boot as they are reqired out west so lets hear what you got

Yamaha Timberwolf and a Honda Foreman

I gots me a Honda Forman S with a 2"lift, 26" Kenda Bear Claws and a 1500 Lb Superwinch. It is a 2000 model I bought in 1999, It has 2800 miles on it and has seen some country.

I use it every day.

I just did a leap from a 1983 Honda 3-wheeler ATV to a 2002 Honda Foreman 400(395cc). I have a tow behind mower on order and the 3-wheeler has some limitations and a few problems. Honda has/had a rebate on ATV's. I got a $600 instant rebate on the Foreman.

I've had a Kawasaki 400 since 1993. Last fall I bought an Arctic Cat 500 auto to keep it company so it doesn't get lonely when sitting in my garage at night.

1999 Bombardier Traxter.

It's a truck. 2000 miles. Very hard miles.

It's great, and pretty neat too.

My hunting rigs are a 2000 Yamaha Grizzly and a 2000 Yamaha Bear Tracker.

My play rig is a 2001 Yamaha Banshee.

I swore for years I would never own a 4-wheeler, and even cursed those who run up and down the backroads on them. But a couple years ago I bought a used 1989 Yamaha Moto-4. It is a 350 CC, 2 wheel drive. It has certainly extended my hunting area, and made getting deer and hogs back to camp much easier. It turns what used to be an exhausting 1 hour uphill walk back to camp at the end of the day into an easy ride.

I run a 2000 Yamaha Big Bear that is bone stock....gets me where I need to go and never has a problem....gotta love it.

I've got a 2000 Honda 450 Foreman S and just love it. When the mud gets really deep, like it did last year, I've got a set of 27" Super Swamper Vampires I can put on it. I've been thinking about adding a winch, but I'm not sure I need one.

I have a 97 LT 500 Suzuki. Now Its deck out with the camo package, fenderbags, saddle bags and a rear bag. Winch coming soon. After being around some of the other quads on the market, I will stick with the Suzuki!

I got a 2000 grizzly 600 it works great!

I'm still living in the past as I am still using a 84 honda 200S 3 wheeler that I paid cash for when new.:) It has been a good one and I can ride circles around any 4 wheeler that I have tried. But she is getting tired so I am thinking of getting a polaris or artic cat next year to give her a rest although I'm not going to retire the old girl. Just keep her as a faithful back up:D I cried when I had to shell out 12 $100 dollar bills back in 84 and I will really be crying when I have to shell out over 60 bills next summer for a 4 wheeler. Dangit, Krogers would be alot cheaper but not near as fun:D Oh well, I will only live once. Longknife

Hey Longknife, I challenge your 3 wheeler! :p

Only thing that will outrun my Banshee is one of those new Raptors, because it has a higher top end, in the 1/4 mile. Once you get those things going, theres no stopping 'em. I've got the holeshot, though. :D

You may also want to look at the Yamaha's when you buy a new ATV. I love mine and they have never let me down.

Artic Cat 250 It has lo-high range and a locked rear axel. 2wd

Only time it wont go is in heavy deep snow when it bottoms out on the belly pan.
