honda's are known for their dependablity, most of them last awhile with proper maintance. i say go for it. don't overlook the yamaha's though.

Like Bama said, they are hard to beat the dependability of a Honda. You may also want to look at the KQ 450.

IMO go with the KQ450 or Grizzly 450. But yeah honda 350 won't be bad at all.

If you got the money for all that then just get outlaws with that lift kit they'll be fine.

The Honda Rancher was my first 4x4 atv, and it has stuck with me through thick and thin..
I think that the Rancher would be a good choice for your first bike..IMO

You might want to look at the Rancher 400 AT, it doesn't have the full time 4x4 that the 350 does. My understanding is the fulltime 4x4 makes it a beast to try to steer.
