I love my Brute Force 750i. I have put over 4000 miles on it in one year with no problems. Everyone always likes to say how honda makes the best atv but my 2000 Honda 450ES shifter stayed screwed up and I traded it with only 1800 miles to a new 2002 Honda Rubicon which had 2 trannys in 3200 miles then I traded it to a new 2003 Honda Rincon which had 2 rearends replaced, 1 tranny, several o-rings replaced in the tranny on a monthly basis. It would not pull its own weight in mud and would quit pulling on hills because of the o-ring leaking and not letting oil into the torque converter.

I always get a new atv every two years but I am still blown away every time I ride my Brute Force and most likely will be keeping it more than 2 years.

 

Well...I guess I could shoot/blow it up. 3500 isnt bad for mod money


04 RED LARIAT, that sucks about the Honda luck. Ive never heard of anyone with that much bad luck with a Honda. Ive never been impressed with their electronic shift either. The Kawi Brute Force is a pretty nice ride though. Ive only test driven one, it was a beast though! I like your silver plastic-is that stock or something you added?

 

So would you think the first one is a good buy?

 

Trust me at ATV's break down it does not matter what brand you use! They are machines used in a harsh environment! I have not had a single thing go wrong with my Rincon and I have about 2000km on it. My buddy has over 6000km on his Honda 400 AT Rancher and not a single problem! My buddy Matt has a a Honda 400 AT Rancher with 3600km on it and not a single problem. The only bike that had a problem was glenns Rincon and it held the gear too long. Fixed under warranty not a problem since also 2000km on it.

I've never seen so many Arctic Cat ATV's broken down in my life as I did this summer!

 

im rather partial to honda. ive got a few friends i ride with and my honda has held up the best. we're pretty hard on our fourwheelers.

its an 06 foreman s 4x4 (its a 500). put 27" gbc gators on it stock. i rarely have to use 4wd. it runs through clay, gumbo mud, and soup at idle and in reverse. it does better than my brothers kawasaki brute force 750 and his has been in the shop more than he's ever ridden it.

 

right now i am looking at a 99 warrior. maybe friday i might go pick it up. i have a 250r 3 wheeler that i might look to sell

 

My dad told me just be patient. I hope with my b-day in a month and christmas in a month possibly it could be a joint present. I highly doubt it but I don't know. I am wanting to get a different vehicle as well. I guese we'll just have to see what happens.
