I had the same bike and it had some issues,I also had a 2006 Honda Rancher 4x4 and it was a much better bike.I noticed you said something about price,I sold my 2006 Rancher for $2200 and there was nothing wrong with it.Since then I have seen many Ranchers around that price and you cant go wrong with a Honda!

Default The jury has spoken.
OK its final, buy a Polaris they sound like good bikes.

Whats wrong guys, I guess the SC does not have any hard core Polaris fans this is a great oppurtunity to start a Honda vs Polaris thread.

Tell me about it, I had a 99 450 with all kinda good stuff on it, cam, bored over, exhaust, jets, air filter, 28" Outlaws and rode it like I stole it. The only thing I ever broke on it was the rear drive shaft when I was trying to pull a poolaris ranger out of a sand/mud pit in Sicily Island. That thing had been sunk, flipped, rolled down a 90 foot hill and never missed a lick. Bikes aren't made like that anymore.

Not at all. I use mine as a battering ram/trail cleaner. I built a front bumper out of 2" square tubing. Its front heavy,but it still floats across the pond. Got 28" swamplites, jet kit, warn 3000# winch, trail lights. And of course a saltycajun.com sticker on the side !!!

I had an 03 Foreman 450. When I first bought it I basically made a submarine out of it. I had milky white oil on at least 5 occassions and never had any problems with it. On the old lease I had I would pull discs to make nearlly 20 food plots every year and then tie a 4x4 to the front bumper and pull a 7 foot long laminated beam with spikes in it to clear out thickets to make new shooting lanes. Never once had an issue with it. Could pull 18 bags of corn on an old heavy trailer up hill with 2 adults on the bike uphill like it wasnt there. They are beasts. If you can find a 450 in good shape get it.

I regret getting rid of mine, it's by far the best bike I've ever had.

I will get in on the recommending of a HONDA FOREMAN. I own a stock 03' 450 Foreman. To date not one part replaced. Only changed fluids.
