Take the Honda

Allison,

I have to go with the Honda. I have a 350 Rancher 4x4 and had a 250 Honda Big Red before that. They have both been very reliable and low maintenance. I think the choice of a manual shift is a good choice as well. The beauty of selectable gears is that the engine doesn't have to get up to a certain rpm to engage the tranny. This allows for cruising at low speeds and low engine noise.

How big of stuff are you planning on pulling with this machine? I love my Rancher because it is so light. It makes it easier to get out of nasty spots than some of the larger ATVs on the market. But coversely it just doesn't have the weight on the tires for traction that some of it's 500cc brethern have.

Hope this helps your decision some.

Let us know what you end up with.
