i say arctic cats are the best, but some one will be along shortly to tell you that i am wrong and their bike is the best.


wich is better ford or chevy? apples or oranges? blondes or red heads? it all about preferances. go to the dealerships and ride the various brand bikes and buy the one that fits you and your style the best.

See,that second part makes since,we are gonna get this thread locked up very quickly,soon we will have people brand bashing and such,I can say Can-am is the best,but then someone wil say Yamaha is the best,then someone will come in and say Honda is the best,its not what we think,its wahat you think.Go test ride each bike you are thinking about and decide which one best suits you.Ask us whats the ups and downs of the bikes you are looking at,and we will do our best to help....

Status: offline 		seems to me that hondas are indestructable....ive owned....? 5 now and never had a failure on any of em.....short of consumables and obviously a cct here and there($its a 20-30 part)

i do say however that this is simply my experience.......

buy what you like after trying a few out.....ride your buddies since they are more likely to let you hit realistic terrain on them than a dealership...
