Junk, find a good used name brand.

My neighbor has a couple for his step-kids and for the most part have given him no trouble. Been about a year now and all he had to do was tinker with the ignition a little bit. IMO, I would rather have a nice used name brand. Less worrying. My friend had a Yamaha Grizzly 660 that he bought pretty used. We put that thing through three kinds of hell and it still ran great when he sold it. Just make sure to do general maintenance.

I work for a company called Bennche(sister store to Hisun).They are chinese made,assembled here in carrollton.They run pretty darn good,and not very many problems.Most problems with chinese things are the electrical systems,but these are fairly simple to work on.They are clones of the yamaha rhino,available in 400,500,and 700.we have a few used ones up for sale right now that were old demo units with low mileage and hours.

You can have problems with anything. If you like it and fits your price range then buy it.

I'm still using a 1991 Kawasaki Bayou 300. It's old and a little cold blooded but it still works well. You get what you pay for. cross reference your sparkplug to an Autolite and see how it does. You may find that it's the best 2 bucks you ever spent. Hard to find anything affordable here unless it's chinese. I'm always watching for one of the older honda foremans that I can grab cheap. Until then, I'll just keep on with my junker.... I've got the 900 bucks I paid for it back several times in the time, work, and wear/tear on the car and tractor it's saved. Even has a 50 buck (new from ebay)china junk carburetor on it for the last 3 years. Guess I've just been lucky..... I will try that, thanx!

My wife's aunt just gave me a 98 Honda foreman S for free,and everybody that has seen it has tried to buy it already

You can have problems with anything. If you like it and fits your price range then buy it. If it has tires or teats, it's going to give you problems eventually.

How long it last will depend on how well you take care of it.... simple as that
