I'm thinking about upgrading to a side by side but not sure on which one I want just yet.I currently have an Arctic Cat400 4x4 likes are smooth ride and differential lock only dislike is fuel consumption
 
1999 Honda 300 4x4. Bought it new. Best atv ever built so no complaints.
2015 Honda Pioneer 700 - bought it new almost three years ago. Like the fact it has no belts but standard transmission. Dislikes...the bed is cheap plastic and the roll cage is too tall and is like pulling a parachute when trailering down the highway. It's actually at my buddy's house now and he's gonna take it off and build one about 5" shorter.
 
I've got a simple Yamaha Grizzly 350 2wd. A no non-sense machine that's simple to operate and maintain. I just bought some new rear tires that have more bight than the factory tires. I'd like to add a winch and possibly LED lights. It does everything I need it to do. I bought it new for a steal when it sat on the dealers floor for two years.

Everybody wants a bigger unit with more bells and whistles. I'm just fine with this automatic, simple machine.

2007 honda 500 foreman.......bought new and have only had to put a battery on in 11 years.Still solid as a rock
 
Yamaha Grizzly 660. love most everything about the machine. Dislike: its not a 700 efi.

I planned on a SxS this year but the fiancé and I have been talking about getting a pontoon for a couple of years so I have changed my mind on the SxS for now.....

to be continued................ :tu:
 
2005 Arctic Cat 400 4x4
2015 Polaris RZR 900s eps. love them both with no complaints other than the cost of the rzr and everything you look at to buy for it is $300+
 
2013 Polaris sportsman 500. Ride is super smooth and really enjoy the machine.

Only things I don't like is it's not EFI and the spark plug is a pain in the A to get to. Normal fluids are super easy to get to and change though which is nice.

1996 Honda trx 300 4x4 - best machine every built by honda. it will still crank 1st try. It's been road hard by me, then my son, and it keeps on going strong

2008 Honda Foreman 500 4x4 -- like the power, and the ride. much smoother than the 300 . Power steering makes it a breeze to steer. It has a ticking in the engine, and the muffler rattles. Other than that, no dislikes
 
2016 Honda Foreman and a 2014 Honda Recon. I like both machines and have no negatives about either. If the Recon was 4x4 it would be able to go anywhere I think. I know a lot of people with these new big bad machines with lots of different options, but I am satisfied with simple and bullet proof.
 
2005 Hondo 500 Foreman. No problems, been a great machine.nNormal tune ups and a new set of tires last year. Hauled a bunch of deer.
 
1998 Honda Foreman 450 S. No complaints. I don't use it much since I started hunting off my Rambo bike. I mostly use it around the house. I think those early Honda's are about the most reliable, most durable machines on the market. They are like Ford 8N tractors, you just about can't kill it. After market disc brakes are a must!
 
2004 Honda RancherAT ,been great bought new in 03 ,2 batterys and a fan motor ,1 battery due to not starting or running it for a long time
 
Polaris Big Boss 6x6. Same width as a fourwheeler for tight spots. But it has a bed for hauling. Bringing a deer or 3 out of a steep hill, it will make a 4 wheeler look silly.

2017 Foreman 500. I had a 1999 fourtrax 300 4x4 so i guess im expecting too much from this new one. It doesn't have a kickstart. I couldn't count the times i kicked that 300. It always fired right up.
 
2016 Honda Pioneer 500. I like it. I had to put some wheel spacers to make it less "tippy".
 
2012 Polaris RZR 570 It is as narrow as a large displacement 4 wheeler and almost as nimble. Not tippy like the 50" utility SXS's. Has a low CG because the seats are on the floor pan. Enough bed space to haul a deer. I added a basket above the bed that mounts to the roll cage for extra storage. I also have a hitch hauler that I can use too. I built an Extreme Terrain ATV trailer copy of this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ym6ne8lcDHw I've hauled 3 deer, trailer, 2 hunters, gear, blind, etc out of a steep valley on our lease with 6 inches of snow on the ground. I'm beyond pleased.


1994 Polaris 300 4x4 2-stroke. Simple, effective.
 
2014 Polaris Sportsman 800. I like the power, don't like the plastic front and rear racks.

2006 Grizzly 660 - The machine has plenty of power, but the frame will crack over time.


I have the same bike. Do you know something about the frames that I don't?
 
Grizzly 700. Likes - Fast, good size (not too big, not too small), work horse. 4x4 with front and back locking differentials. Dislikes - none so far, oil filter a little hard to get to.

Kubota RTV-900. Has the three cylinder 326 diesel engine (just like my Kubota ZTR). Noisy, heavy, but sips gas, hauls a ton (literally) and goes anywhere.
