My bro on the other hand, is getting a Can-Am Outlander 570.

    This is it exactly, good choice

Only issue left to fix, is the back brake cable sticks. So every time it goes into reverse, the brake cam on the rear axle needs to be tapped with a hammer or axe to get it back to slack.

    I have been treated amazingly by my Suzuki king quad. But king quad, grizzly, pioneer yada yada all are good atvs. Some offer different things and such. I think maybe finding features you want aka power steering, fuel injected etc then find what models offer those creature comforts.

    Instead of looking at the brand, look the features. I like IRS, I've seen how much better IRS is than solid on the trail, 4 wheels vs 2. Power steering, I don't have it. Metal racks, these quads are more pack horse than racing horse. EFI , it works, unlike the sometimes of a carburetor. I'm a fan of wishbone front suspension over McPherson strut. Big gas tank, saves packing gas. Tires most quads come with are things that are black and round and that all that can be said about them. I even found a big difference between the deluxe Carlisle that the quad came with and the Maxis Big Horns. Good headlights. The big center lights are totally useless with gun boxes.

    Gun boxes are something you have to design and build yourself. Or have built.
