Im not sure I'd like the power steering. I'm affraid it would take the "feel" of the trail away. I like to "feel" the trail through the handle bars so I can better gauge whats going on with the machine. My popo weighs 720 lbs , between the weight and the IRS it really hides the feel of whats going on.I'm affraid the power steering would further reduce "feel". With all of that being said I'd love to ride one with power steering just to see the difference. Hell who knows I may be surprised! I've been wanting to take a day and go to EVERY local dealer and ride each manufactures newest utilty 4x4 just as a comparison. I think it would be something different and fun! Anyone wanna load up and join me?!

i dont have any problem turning with my rancher. It seems exspensive and something else to break wile riding. thats just my oppinion though
The power steering option helps with bumpsteer , easier to turn with a plow on the front. Wait about 25 years from now, you'll understand the powersteering.May not agree with it, but you will understand why. My wife was wishing for powersteering on the Recon while riding up in Mich. A lot of jolts to the shoulders.

      Has anyone had a suzuki 230 quad lock the engine up?  Its a well maintained bike, it locked up when my son was riding it. Pulled the plug, it has connected with the piston. I'm thinking the con rod let go.  I don't have a service manual.  Does the engine need to come out to check further?

      Hi, I have been around everything with a motor since I was little, and finally purchased more to get my husband, and kids involved. I have 4 quads I will be searching around for information on. I have two 2002 Suzuki LT80K quads, a 1997 Yamaha Timberwolf 250, and a 1996 Kawasaki Bayou 220. I have had different ones throughout the years, and plan on buying another Yamaha Banshee. I plan on trying to learn more about all of them, so I can customize some of them. I know nothing about them besides how to race them, my dad always took care of the rest, but figured it was time for me to learn.

      2001 TRX350TM Rancher Crazy Bad!
      By pastorjeep
      Ok guys, I am a glutton for punishment! I picked up this 01 2wd Rancher because the plastics looked good on the marketplace. It has been sitting in the guys back yard for 10 years. The original engine blew and they swapped in an electric shift 4x4 engine. 😒The engine is locked up and was full of water. The wiring is hacked where they tried to get it to run and the rear end needs new swingarm bearings where they left it laying on the ground in the woods for 10 years. Has anyone here ever did the engine swap? First thing is to straighten out the wiring and get the engine free to see if I can get it to crank over. I have swingarm bearings ordered and a new ignition switch. So hopefully I can at least roll it around soon. 🤣
