Hey everyone, good afternoon. I'm not an owner yet but I'm just waiting on an 1000-5 to come in stock.

Grew up on Honda ATVs; 110 (would ride my Dad's when i was 12), Big Red, 1998 Foreman S and a 2002 Rubicon. Though I got the urge for more power and comfort and moved to a Kawi Brute Force 750 in 2005.

I had that bike originally for riding on the farm and trail riding in Forest Hill, Louisiana. Those were fun times. But then I started mud riding more and so I relocated the radiator, got it snorkeled and put Mega Mayhems on it.

But the relocated radiator takes all of my front rack space and even with Elkas, it is not as smooth as it used to be with those stiff MMs. So it's a great bike for mud riding and has never given me any issues. And now that I've changed priorities again, hunting in the hills of Mississippi is more important. I'd rather be able to just store my stuff in the bed and be able to easily haul people around.

Not to mention how comfortable and fun it's been driving around in some other Pioneers up there. ;)

Welcome from Tennessee. I came from a four wheeler to the 1000-5 also. It felt like a Cadillac to me and I still love it.
