    There are heaps of hondas around this area.
    The first series of muvs wernt overly reliable but the new pioneers seem to be another step up.
    The 500 is new and have driven that and pretty impressed.
    The other bikes i have had a bit to do with are the latest polaris the 570 and the 900 both with engine breaking.
    They seem to have conquered the reliability issues as i now know a few farmers that have bought more than one.
    I have an old 2006 700 ranger that has given me a few headaches but what an amazing machine ..
    I could never go back to a quad for work or hunting especially with taking my family with me

    Canam But if your wanting a bit more play I would be going for the 1000cc. They are a great hunting set up and extremely capable off road, bush bashing is great fun as the roll bars deflect all the branches away.
    I've been amazed where mines gone, from stoney river crossings to the wrong way on MTB tracks.
    I'm not sure how good they are from a work front as they aren't the easiest thing to climb in and out off all day and the steering lock is shit for small places. I miss my 4 wheeler when it comes to weed spraying and gate opening.
    Touch wood, we have had no problems with it except for running it into a fence and having to get the parts from the USA (my fault).
