4 wheeler purchase

Postby RedEyed Duck » Fri Nov 11, 2011 2:47 pm

My lil brothers wife wants to buy him a 4 wheeler for Christmas. He is a deer hunter, so keep that in mind when you provide the suggestion. So, What would you recommend for a deer hunter in a new 4 wheeler purchase?

Stay honda. Sure there are alot of good companys out there but Honda is the best.

Factors to consider.
How big a fella is he?
How many passengers?
Does he carry alot of gear with him?

I think the 420 is a stud of a bike. But if he is a big ol bigun like me might want the forman, I am not a fan of the 650 rincon, too heavy=sink fast and makes ruts

Honda "whatever" 400CC. Big enough to pull small implements for food plots. Do get selective 4wd (easier to turn)

Just got rid of a 420 Rancher and it was a great bike. My next one will be the 700 Grizzly.

Don't do it Trip!! I bought a 700 Grizzly a few years ago, and wish everyday now that I had stuck with a Honda. The Yamahas are not put together, body wise, as well as the Hondas are.
