I'm going to agree with some of what I have read. I will never own a Polaris. They are issuing recalls faster than they can feasibly fix them....lol They are just one step above CFMoto as far as I'm concerned. The fit and finish is just not there either. They are cheap, plain and simple.

The Japanese are reliable, but they are also under-powered in today's market. I don't think any Honda.Yamaha, etc comes close to putting something with 90hp in one of their ATV's. This may not be a big deal for some, but for me it is. I want HP.....the more the better. If you don't want/need the HP, you really can't beat Honda or Yamaha.
I have a '14 Can Am Outlander Max XTP 1000 and love it. I have 6,000+ miles on it and use it for play in the summer and work in the winter.
Here it is last summer cleaned up and all setup for our 600 mile, 4 day excursion from N WI up to Copper Harbor, MI and back.
Here it is about a month or two later setup for winter use hauling it's first load of many out of the woods. FIVE saws, two splitting mauls, two cable pullers, straps, clevises, cables, logging chains, gas, bar oil, safety gear, water jug, etc. About 150lbs+ on the front rack alone.
