Hard to beat the 800 fuel injected twin with most comfy suspension in an ATV. The Can-Am Outlander (or Renegade for the more crazed) is the best!

Besides Honda of course. It's tough to decide when I have to look at them both as my local Honda dealer is also a Can-Am/Sea-Doo/Ski-Doo dealer.

my group of buddies have a kawi 650i and the 750,rode both and really just never got comfortable.That 750 had alot of torque,but the exhaust is annoying after about 20mins of riding,guess the honda has spoiled my ears or i'm getting old.4wd not engaging until the wheels spin also means you get stuck quicker.

My father in-law has a Kawi and its a nice machine. Dut is not a Honda. Its his second one, and the old one is from the 80's. Everyone I know has had good luck with them. Artic Cats break like there is no tomorrow, and most of the time the Techs can't even tell you what went wrong is what I hear. A couple of my buddies have Polaris, and they are okay, but everytime I talk to him about going they are in the shop for something.

That's interesting.....Bombardier is leading with the most votes and they haven't been around that long.I rode a Bomb 800 and boy was I impressed.I'm just a little leary about fuel injection on an ATV in terms of long term durability and being able to work on it myself.
