I have one with ES and PS, mostly bought it for plowing snow and working around my property. Since January I put 80 miles on it mostly plowing my driveway. If I was just trail riding I might look at a Kawasaki or Suzuki with independent rear suspension, four wheel disk brakes, and auto transmission. IMO the Foreman is more of a workhorse than a trail machine.

I think some machining is required to install the front locker. I just installed a winch and plan on keeping the front open :D checkout http://hondaforeman.com for tire info

^^ Exactly^^ Like all hondas theyre bullet proof but they tend to be out dated compared to what the other manufacturers make.
