@@riccardocarlotti683 ok, it was the "explication" that gave it away. It's "explanation" I was a foreigner in brasil for a couple years and I would guess at a lot of words because the patterns between the two languages seemed consistent then every once in a while the words was just slightly different. I believe I was calling the portuguese word "explicação" as "explanação" for a while. Not trying to insult your english. English is my native language and sometimes I still throw portuguese into it on accident.

This really helps, thank you for elaborating your points very well. The rambling, not an issue, if we have time to listen, we will. Thanks again.

For me personally, I loved my Honda 300 EX years ago. Great to learn on, very versatile. Basically was marketed as a sport utility, but easily converted to full sport. I rode that thing for 9 years, HARD. Never had any major issues. Now that Im older, I wouldnt trade my 2000 Arctic Cat 500 4x4 for anything. Its not going to win many races, but its comfortable, reliable even at 20 years old, plows 2 foot of snow like nothing and havent bogged in a mud hole yet that people on newer quads wouldnt dare try. All comes down to what kind of riding you're looking for like said in the video to get the most enjoyment. But those 2 I listed above were both great.

I already knew I wanted a sport quad but this is a great video to help new quad people find what they want

I went with a 08 brute force 750.. it’s great for my kind of riding. By far best four wheeler for the woods and back trails. My favorite is riding power lines behind my house.

Awesome video my man! Thanks for the info!!

One of the better reviews that I have seen. Thank you.

Thanks for the informative video. It's appreciated.

I got a tracker 570 for my first 4 wheeler as an adult . And for what I have used it for so far it’s been a great machine . I had a scrambler in the early 2000s as a kid that was fun .

I bought a brand new yellow 400EX in 2001 and rode it for 15 years. 15 years and not a single break of anything. Only oil changes and tires. If you know how to ride a sport quad there are few places you cant follow the 4x4 guys. There was never a hill they could climb that I also couldn't nail with sheer momentum and climb too. Big mud holes I could always find a way around. I miss the sport quad glory days. I rode a new Sportsman recently and it felt like riding a aircraft carrier. That Scrambler is NOT a sport quad either...its just a stripped down Sportsman. You roll them down a hill its done, totaled. A real sport quad you can save and not roll in the first place by hopping off, or as in the film here they can roll over and keep on going. Theres only 1 sport quad left today...the Raptor.

For me, I have found that I prefer the big single engines over the v-twins. It's a more simple setup, and tends to feel better in the bottom end. Sure, the twins have longer legs, but 99% of the time that is a non-factor. I also really like the sport-utility segment. That being said, you can typically trim the fat off of the utility machines, get better shocks, and have the same thing.

@NavigateOffroad

Thanks for the input, Rodney. I agree that a large amount of the time the V-twin is a non factor. Then again, I personally do more trail riding that speeding down routes or more open spaces. So I think riding style plays a role there as well.

Great advice!

I choose the lower power and low displacement kymco models. They're basically #2 for reliability, only under Honda, (they helped develop their engine), they have nice suspension, and they've been selling my model (mxu 150) forever, and (in 2018) was still selling. Supposedly theyre super easy to repair and parts can be found. Super cheap, (my mom got hers for under 2 grand when it was relatively new) and parts are shared between multiple kymco models, (it uses MX'ER and Mongoose parts).

I needed this. What an 4 wheeler so bad. But don’t know where to start 😢 Great video brother

I got a 84 trx200 86 Suzuki tl230 2 Polaris a 90 250 trail boss and a 425 magnum. For a first timer buy a decent used whatever size to get a feel for it but don't be afraid to work on them a little.

We have a Kodiak utility Atv from 2005, thing still runs great so if your thinking of buying a utility Atv that's also fun to ride on the trails I'd strongly look towards Yamaha

Thank you so much I figured out what four wheeler I want the utility ATV

A utility wheeler is good enough for me. I have a Polaris sportsman 500. I will have it a year coming in June. I used it during the gun deer season. It was a big help for me. My feet are in bad shape. It saved me a lot of walking that I couldn't have done. It carried me to the north side of the field where the deer like to go. Then one came out and I shot it. Then I tied it to the back of the wheeler and it carried me and my deer out. I like my wheeler. I will never hunt without it now.

Very good video! You are spot on about engine size. Kind of off subject ? My first "new" snowmobile was an Arctic Cat El Tigre 6000 ( 600 cc 2 stroke) and later decided to upgrade to a ZR 8000 ( 800 cc 2 stroke), I will be the first to admit I should have just stuck with my 600! Don't get me wrong, having about 40 more HP is awesome but the extra weight and almost too much power made it a handful in the tight trails that I ride in. I guarantee I could get through those trails faster on my 600 and with a lot less effort than on my 800 cc sleds! Just this last weekend I was riding some trails in Northern Michigan with a couple of buddies( my 2017 Sportsman 850 SP, 2004 Sportsman 700 and a 2000 Honda Recon 250). I tell you what even though 2 of us had some big bad Sportsmans, it was quite challenging to keep up with that little Honda ridden by an experienced rider on tight trails!! :-)

I’ve got an old 87 trx250r for sale. Starts first kick, bored to 360cc, full bore plastics, asv levers. Straight cut gears, cool head, comes with sand and dirt tires. Lol. Buying older isn’t that cheap.

Gotta love my 660r raptor!!

There is a rack behind my quad (metal) and useless it adds a lot of weight.should I cut it off?

I ride a trx450r and my friend has a scrambler 850. I like my 450r for its ability to be controlled and the raw power. I like my buddies scramble because it feels like a cadi. Sure its heavier but the plush suspension makes you want to ride all day and it can keep up with my 450r on the trails if you know how to ride it. The scrambler is a very well rounded quad and im considering buying one

Make sport quads great again lol should have included a 450 sport quad rather than a 400ex. 400s are low maintenance compared to every make and model of sport 450 ever made (greasing parts, changing oil frequently, tightening bolts) just another thing to think about when looking to purchase an atv.

I always had sport atvs like the raptor 660 and the ex400 but as I got older 4x4 was more of a desire as you can not hit a trail the same way as the 4x4 utility quad as you don't high center or get hung up on a branch when you only have 1 set of tires spinning.
