Here is my conundrem...... I cant spell:biggrin: Just kidding But really, right now I have a Honda Recon 250 2 wheel drive, It is a solid ATV and I like the reliability, the power, well its just a great ATV....for what it is But I have recently been considering lifting, bigger tires, exhaust and truck bedliner on the body.... But then In got thinking, even if I did all that, at the end of the day it would still be a 250 and it would still be two wheel drive. So Ive been thinking of upgrading, If I sold it now it would be worth about $14-1500 plus I could save up a few hundred. I would be looking for a larger ATV that must have 4 wheel drive and obviously I would buy used. The brands I would consider would be Yamaha (all around great ATVs) Arctic Cat/Polaris (American quality plus a I could get a good price on a bigger one, I would LOVE to have a 500+cc!!!!) or maybe suzuki... I dont want a kawasaki, chinese brand and Im not so sure I want another honda (theyre great machines, but there are a lot better with the bigger ones (the 250's are the best tho)) So I ask you this, 1.)Is it worth it???? can I pull this off reasonably and after all the hassle would it be worth it? 2.)What brand/model do you recommend? which can I get a good deal on a larger ATV with 4x4?? all help appreciated, I will consider all your opinions. THANK YOU

So, I'm in the market for a new quad....been out of the sport for over 10 years. Used to ride almost exclusively Hondas, but their fit and finish quality has really seemed to have tanked in the 450Rs that I've looked at at the dealer. I'm not a fan of the KTM or the DS 450.....just something about them I don't like. In order of preference, I think I like the KFX450R, the YFZ450, the TRX450R and then LTR-450. Out of those 4.....which do you prefer and why? Why don't you like the others? I like the Kawasaki most b/c it seems like the highest quality, and it's got fuel injection. Downsides: 1st year of production, unproven aluminum frame, heavy...but has reverse. I've heard of a few overheating problems from too small of a fuse on the fan (10A vs. 20A) and that they've recalled 6K of the bikes b/c of a fuel tank problem that has since been fixed. Warranty has been extended to 1 year to entice people to buy. The Yamaha looks close to the KFX in terms of quality, but doesn't have fuel injection. The oiling problems were corrected with the 07 models. Seems pretty dialed in to jump on and ride. I'm not one of those guys that has to have the fastest quad out there....I'm really looking for something that's reliable. I'm not looking to trade out quads every few years. I'm also not planning any major mods. At most, maybe a pipe and intake, some paddles and possibly wider a-arms and rear axle for better handling. The Honda is starting to grow on me, but it sucks that the small fit and finish items seem so cheap compared to even the older 400EX line. The shifter, pegs and controls just look cheapo....like they sourced the parts from Suzuki's supplier. I've heard the TRXs are the best if you want to really mod the engine with a big bore kit, etc. Don't know if that's true, but even Can-Am's site is comparing the target 4 features to mostly the Honda. The Suzuki is only in the running b/c it's wide and has fuel injection. Otherwise, this bike just seems cheaply built....from frame weld quality to controls and parts. I'm still interested in what people have to say about it though. I've never been a fan of Suzuki in general....win me over. Any input is appreciated. Sean
