I just picked up my new '07 Foreman on the 3rd of this month. I've been on 2 rides with it so far. First on a couple of trails near Oscoda, MI to give it a decent break-in. 2nd on a weekend jamboree on Drummond Island in the U.P.

Very nice bike. I was concerned about the power since my other bike is a 750 Brute Force, but it works just fine!

This is my first and only Honda to date. I am not sure of any differences since I have nothing to compare it against.

That being said, Here's a list of what might be new.

LED Brake/tail light.
Black engine side covers.
Front Disc Brakes.

Also, the front bumper has changed a bracket from a round tube to a channel type of brace. My dealer had to change it over from a floor room Rubicon to mount my winch. The Warn mount would NOT work with the new channel brace. The old style looks to be a little stronger than the new. I can't see any advantage to the change.

Here's a pic at the Jamboree on August 11-13. Great times, will likely become an annual event.

You missed a really great time. Next year will be even bigger and better. I'm not sure of the head count, but there were at least 100 people there. I can't wait to go back.

That is a Garmin GPS on a RAM mount. I had to stand up and lean W-A-A-Y over the handlebars and the GPS was in the way so I rotated it away from me.

Bighorns

I already had the 25" Bighorns on my Brute Force. I bought the Foreman when the BF went down. Fortunately the bolt patterns are the same on both bikes and the same wheels will bolt right up to both machines. I did put some spacers in the rear of the Honda. None required for the front. I really like the ride and durability of the BHs. Not true Mud tires, but a nice all around tire. The 26" Bighorns are MUCH wider and heavier than the 25" ones. I am glad I stayed with the stock size. I also have a set of 27" ITP Mudlight XTRs that are on 14" rims. I like those a lot as well.
