| I'd be looking for an older Yamaha Big Bear or Handa 300. I've had the older Yamaha 225's, Honda 250 and 300 EX and now a Can Am Outlander 400... and I think I'd rank them best to worst in that order with the latter being the worst by far.
4x4 is hard to get by without... but I don't really like a high machine for a lot of things where I'm off and on the machine a lot and don't really need more than a 400. The bike gets too heavy for tight manuvering because you can't throw it around and they're gas hogs. I'd also, WITHOUT QUESTION, go with a gear drive. Got the belt drive. Hate the belt. Never buying another belt. To be quite honest, one of these days I'm going to take a cable tie to the throttle on the damn thing and see how far it can launch off a cliff. Something wrong with it constantly....
The 300 Ex is not a bad bike if you put a good set of tires on it either.
