I love my Foreman and I will stick with Honda for utility purposes. I would consider a Can Am, Suzuki or maybe a Yamaha if I ever bought another racing atv.

My best friend bought an xmr three weeks ago and he paid I think $13000 for it. It's got a ton of power. But that doesn't make up for the way it's built, he broke his front a arm clean off. Tire went to Rollin. He had it for 2 days lmao. My bike is an 06 and never had a problem until the 29.5s :0 hahaha

I took this today; 14940 miles and 1696 hours. Good chance it will hit 15k tomorrow.

I've riden quite a few machines and I'm still happy with what I have.

I honestly don't know what I would buy if I purchased a new ATV tomorrow but I can guarantee you that it would NOT be a Polaris.

Do you really think that a person riding a perticular brand and has 229 videos, is going to show the public and his friends outside of riding, his big bad four wheeler tearing up. Getting pulled out of something. Come on......Whos going to come back from a day riding bragging "Hey, I burned up 4 belts today and, I get to take it down to the stealership and have $1000 dollars worth of work done to it. Dude I think you should get one like me."

I agree, they are awesome machines, the point i was making earlier is... Axles can only handle so much power, differentials can only handle so much power, Arms, ball joints, drive shafts, belts, shocks, Ect.. can only handle " SO MUCH POWER" If you get a large CC, high output machine, no matter who makes it... expect it break things, unless you treat it like a temperamental woman, you have to know when to ride her hard.. and when to back off...or else shes going to break something... Just hopefully not the rider
