Hey Guys,

I've heard that Yamaha makes the most reliable sleds but some people have complained about the suspension on the older models. For those of you that know ATVs... I have a Honda Rincon now... that's the style of sled I'm looking for too... plush ride, reliable, reasonably quick. Any help / recommendations would be appreciated! I'm thinking RX-1...

Who told you Yamahas make the most reliable sleds...The newer ones aren't to bad I guess. The older Yamahas have some what cheaper designs, but they are still ok.

My family and I have them all and from experience that I have had out in the trails Yamaha has everyone beat when it comes to being reliable. But nobody really makes a "bad" sled I don't think. Check them all out and narrow it down to a couple. I found that their are alot of knowledgable people on the board and if you have any questions about a particular model, be it cat, polaris, skidoo or yamaha, somebody will know the pros and cons about it. Happy hunting.
