If you like riding instead of walking get a Honda

Between Yamaha or honda, I'd get whichever one you can get a better deal on right now. The options can differ a bit as well.

Bottom line, whether the die hard Honda fans want to admit it or not, Yamaha has made solid machines for a very long time now. I've owned both brands and wouldn't hesitate to buy either brand again.

Now on the other hand, UTV's are a different story.

Can-Am Outlander gets my vote, you simply won't find a better riding machine out there. They are quality built, fun to drive, have mad power and the best resale value in the industry. Honda's of today are not the Honda's of yester-year. Honda quality has also come back to the pack and they cost as much as a comparable machine from BRP, Polaris or Yamaha but lack in the performance dept. I used to be a die hard Honda guy and have owned a built 840 Outlander race bike, a built Rancher 420 and still own a 350 Rancher and a Big Red..........nothing compares to the BRP.........I wish I still had it.

I have a Yamaha Grizzly 400 that was sitting for like 5 years. I put a new battery in it and it started right up. Eventually cleaned the carb and it's running great. I need to change the oil even though it looks good.

Mainly use it for deer hunting but will also use it occasionally to duck hunt off of. My duck hole is super hard bottom so won't need anything aggressive tire wise. I see a use for it in regard to deer being I looked at our property on Google earth and I am missing a lot of solid spots because lack of roads or to narrow for my truck or a utv. As of now I'm only hunting about 10% of the property due to access. With the atv I can pretty much get to all of it.

Anything Honda, I have a foreman 500 and it's been great

For capability, consider IRS vs. Solid rear axle, ground clearance, etc. An IRS bike will give you more GC and a smoother ride, but there is some (minimal) sacrifice in stability, ability to haul heavy loads, etc.

IMO, Polaris and Can Am are some of the smoothest riding quads, but cost the most to maintain. I think a single cylinder in the 450 to 700 range with IRS would do the job and then some. Honda, Yamaha and Arctic Cat make pretty good machines.

Do you prefer Auto's or manuals?

Been a long time since I owned a four wheeler my last ride was a Polaris Ranger 800 crew eps which was a great bike but I didn't need that big of a bike anymore. But I'm not particular either way in regards to manual or auto.

I never see anyone recommend a Suzuki. I have an '08 King Quad 750axi that has given me absolutely zero issues. It's got a ton of power and rides smoother than most other bikes I've been on. Don't pass them up if you have a shot at one. I will say that their design has not changed materially in a number of years. Take that for what it's worth. It may simply be an "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".
