    I have a 09' 680 Honda Rincon and am running stock wheels but thats going to change very quickly since it is limiting when it comes to mud and rocks.

    I have video clips of us having fun but can't post those here (darn) they are pretty good. I think I'm gonna get a "YouTube" thing going so I can post those.

    What kind of ATV are you looking at?
    I was thinking something in the sport group like a Honda TRX700XX or a Kawasaki 450R Monster Energy. Isn't the Honda Rincon one of those powerhouse "work horses?" Are you planning to get larger wheels and possibly what we call off-road/knobby tires? I wouldn't want to ride behind you if you do. Mud and rocks will be flying through the treetops. lol

    Wow you are looking at some nice bikes. We rode with a sport Honda (450 class I think) and it was an awesome machine!
    My Rincon is a 680 and I think it leans more toward sport bike than the farm/hunting bike. It's fast and has the indy rear suspension and EFI but no power steering.

    For now I'm just gonna get some 25" tires mounted on my oem wheels and when I figure out what I REALLY like I'll take the plunge and get those big old tires and wheels. Maybe 27" tires and 14" wheels???

    I looked up the Rincon and it is one "bad" ride; beautiful. I hadn't given any thought to a bike being used on a farm; I was having visions of you hauling a 12-point buck on a rack behind the seat. lol
