I own one of these.
It's the guttless wonder but i still love it.
This ATV is bar non the tuffest thing on the planet. I have pounded the crap out of mine for years and it still runs perfect.
I have not had one problem with the motor. As long as you keep the oil changed and the air filter clean that thing will run forever.
My mechanic also has one but his is the 350 and it's the same thing. runs perfect to matter what you do to it.

Well, a pressure washer can force water and grime into your seals and bearings, leading to premature wear and breakage. Electronics don't generally like water under pressure either. Sounds to me like he just wanted you to spend less $$ on the new toys in the future.

I Thought I would post my recent purchase and do appreciate the feedback. I thought they would make a good "beater" to break new trails etc.. I thought it would lead me up to something bigger. The one that runs dont smoke or anything shifts good the second Just had a new motor put in and for the ole lady to ride. 2 large for 2 honda 4-wheelers I thought might be a good deal so I <in my moment of weakness> did the deal and the fella that sold them to us backed them up he owns a atv business here. The only scary part was he asked me about cleaning them, I replied I had a gas powered pressure washer and he asked me what parts to avoid with the water....I was thinkin this guy is a reputable person but dont wash them at all...how scary..anyways thx guys and comments feel free to share

He is a good fella and I have had many dealings with him in the past. I wasnt looking to spend 3+ large to get a quad to just trail ride and goof off. I currently own a honda atc 110 and a 90, Both have peoven reliable machines so I guess I am a honda guy but spend the most time on my 78 harley davidson. I appreciate the advice some might call them gutless, To give you an Idea I am 6' 125 lbs, If I get a sport quad I am liable to hurt myself . Thanks again for the replies P.S. I do wear helmets and chest armor.
