By Mike (I am an Owner) on Jun 03, 2017I bought 2 of them and absolutely love them. Have had them for 2 years and have almost 600 miles on both. They have tons of power and out perform my polaris, they also come with more things standard that I would have to pay hundreds to get on my polaris.

UPDATE ON RELIABILITY
By Charles Armijo (I am an Owner) on Aug 15, 2016I wanted to put my 2 cents in. I almost reached my first year with this quad. Almost 400 miles. Many things to brag about and a few negatives.
1- lots of power with 2 riders. Almost 500 pounds between us both with our hunting gear. We have been in 19" of snow during our Janurary hunt. Outperformed ... a Polaris 450 with 2 hunters sliding all over the mountain.
2- The Rear back seat is the best! Very comfortable. Heat not an issue in winter. Actually very nice to keep inner thighs warm while it was snowing.
3- Power steering is amazing. Can ride all day without feeling like your arms are gonna fall off.
4- 4x4 is super powerful. I have been thru some crazy situations in the mountains without any issue.
Now with the issues:
1- I was the last one to get ATV started out of all the hunters. After driving on the highway to hunting spot. Everything is frozen outside. ATV would crank but not start. After 10 attempts and very embarrassed it would finally want to start. Never thought that would happen with Electronic Ignition. Note: I cannot reproduce problem at my house no matter how cold it is.
2- The turning radius sucks. I call it the BUS.
3- Just got ATV from shop due to a Thermal Switch for fan. Driving in 102 degrees made the thermal switch fail.
