I haul wood with my grandfathers jd gator over the bed they were flat too! I love the solid axle because it doesnt drop any. I would like irs for the trails. Thats a heavy load of atv's does it wind up like a belt drive?

The Big Red is geared lower than the Rincon. If all your going to do is haul loads, then Rincon isn' the goad for the job. That's just not the type of ATV it is. But if you are hauling occasionally and doing more trail riding than hauling, then it will do just fine. Mine can haul a 1500lb car trailer around my yard without too much squat.

I guess honda wanted to have a trail bike to compete with other companys. With the rincon does it have to wind up to move like a belt drive? I wonder why honda never made sleds.
