I'm looking at these four ATVs for purchasing one. Anybody have any input/recommendations they could make to help me with my decision? Right now I'm leaning toward the Honda or Suzuki, though, the Kawasaki is $200 cheaper.
Kawsaki Bayou 250
Honda Recon 250
Suzuki Ozark 250
Yamaha Bear Tracker 250

the recon was top dog for a while but ive read that the new suzuki is the stuff...i guess from what ive read go with the ozark..and the recon would be second choice

I would go with the honda 250 recon,I have driven one before and they are a nice tough light bike bike.my second choice would be the susuki the new 250 sounds goo but we will see how tough it really is when they are out.

ah he brought up a good point that you may want to consider...the suzuki is brand new and does not have the track record the honda does (and the hondas reliability is very good) so you may want to factor that in
