    Anyone ride ATVs??

    Quick search gave me nothing. So? Surely there are some guys on here that are into the ATV thing.

    So I just picked up a Honda Rubicon 4x4 and can't wait to break it in. Wondering what you guys have and what mods you have done. I am thinking about a lift kit, and wheel/tire combo for more ground clearance.

    Any advice/opinions on suspension, wheels, tires, exhaust, etc. would be much appreciated. Also, online sites for parts/accessories.

    I actually am looking for one.

    I'm looking for an AWD one to ride around on a farm for leisure.

    Any particular brand I should look at?

      Of course you're gonna get varied responses, but I've always been a Honda guy.

      Research is best advice.

          Got me a Kawasaki Prairie 650. Looked at all of them, ended up with the Prairie. I stand by my decision.

          As far as mods go, most guys will tell you radial tires, Elka suspension and exhaust are the way to go.

                    I always use rockymountainatv/mc since they tend to always have the lowest prices on stuff, unless my parts guy at the dealer can match their prices.

                    As for tires, I love ITP's and like Maxxis, and Kenda's, exhuast sparks, hmf,dasa, yoshi, esr are all good companies.

                    I just picked up an 08 KFX450R and hopefully in a few weeks i can pick up a Dasa pipe, and Power commander for it.

                            The Kawasaki is a great mix of sport & work. Really versatile. For play I usually either grab the '87 CR500 or the '99 Husaberg.
