Honda makes an awesome machine, my dad has a 1994 foreman 400 that has been to the shop ONCE since it was new for a cv boot. My 2005 kawasaki brute force 750 has been in the shop countless times, on its second motor etc etc..

Yea thats one of the only downfalls that honda has done with there quads is not gear them low enough. Is it the cvt tranny? The older foremans had the clutch less 5 speeds man my dads quad can pull stumps out lol the gearing is so low, No reason to use 1st gear

hows the power steering on it? my dad has an arctic cat 500, and it is quite difficult to turn at low speeds. I have a 250 recon that ai am looking to rebuild the top end too

The power steering is great. I can turn the bike with no effort even at low speeds and while in 4x4. But its prolli one of those of those things that go out after a year

How much warranty do you have on a 6k bike?
