What was tour first ATV you purchased on your own? Do you still have it?

My first ATV was a 2003 Honda foreman 450s, I sold it 4 years ago to my best friend I grew up with and he still has it today

PS, it still purrrs like a kitten

My brother in law has one of those, it's a riot, rides it around his place all the time
Guess I missed part 2 of your question. No I traded it for a 185s when they came out, then swapped that for a 200X in 83, and also bought an 86 ATC 250R. Kept them until 90 Or So then had 6 variations of Fourtraxes from the 300EX to the 680 Rincon in 2008. Then finally to the SXS I have now a P500 & P1K5D.

125 - 185 - 250 Big Red - 250R - 250 Big Red - 200 SX - 250 Big Red - 2006 Foreman - 2016 Pioneer 1000-3EPS -



And I'm sure that I'm not done yet!

Part 2. Most of the wheelers were sold/traded/hurt really bad and went away.
Sold the 3 1985 Big Reds just about a year ago.
Still have the Foreman and the Pioneer.

'78ish Honda Odyssey and a '82ish Kawasaki FLT250 similar to pics. Probably in a scrap yard somewhere now lol. Other than those it's been all dirt bikes pretty much until our recent Pioneer purchase.

I thought that you just wanted ATV's/UTV's?


If we're going to include 2 wheelers......... we might crash the internet.

My first was a 2005 Honda Rancher 350ES 4x4. I bought it new in September of 2005. Finally sold it off a few months after buying the P5 last summer. My wife then bought her new 2016 Rancher 420 4x4.

I did have a 2006 Rhino 660 for a little while a couple years ago. Just never took a liking to it and sold it.

I loved my Rhino but I'll be dammed if I didn't roll that thing three separate times, one time I barrel rolled it two times, totally my fault

My first atv was a Honda ATC 1985 200s I bought for $125 it ran like a top until the day it was stolen. I bought it 18 years ago it made me respect atv's because every time I didn't that three wheeler put me in check. I have a soft spot for 3 wheelers when I get a shop built I will actively hunt for a 350x to ride and keep out of the weather.

Purchased on my own: 2003 foreman 450es 4x4 and I still have it. Runs like a champ. Rebuilt the carb last year for the first time, other than that only tires and batteries.
