Question for the hunters? - Honda Foreman Forums : Rubicon, Rincon, Rancher and Recon Forum

surly38 · 01-05-2012, 06:40 PM

My Rubicon is red. Is it worth the hunt for green plastics or is that more of a fashion statement? I have camo netting that I can use to break up the outline of my ATV.

Thanks

I wouldnt worry about it, unless your hunting from your fourwheeler. But some states that is illegal. I dont drive mine all the way to the stand. I have walked back to my quad and had deer 10 or so yards from it. Save your money for something else..JMO

Thanks guys. I was leaning towards just leaving it as is since the plastics are in great shape. I park a good distance from my stand.

unless you have a turret-mounted weapon on the quad, just use the camo netting if you can't walk to the stand.

Red Rubicons run better, last longer, climb better and are more dependable than any other color.

That and animals are color blind and can't see red.
