Sounds like a good find to me.
Drive it and see how well it shifts. Most are very troublefree, like most hondas, if the maintance was done. The es system is somewhat sensitive to battery voltage on the older es models. The newer ones will shift , once the motor is running, wether the battery is good or not.
Its full time 4wd, unless you add a warn 424.
They ride like an unloaded 3/4 ton truck , but for doing chores and hard work, they are real good.
Ask the owner what problems hes had, I doubt he had any. If it seems to run and shift fine, it should be good.

Hello group,
I am considering purchasing a used foreman ES. The unit appears as new, has 977 miles and 145 hours, has a winch and a benz silencer and other accessories. The asking price is $2800.00.
I am a honda man and have owned a 1999 honda 300 4x4 in the past.
It will be used in south Texas for a hunting atv.
What are the pros and cons of this four wheeler?
Is the ES reliable?
Is this a reasonable price?
Thanks for the help.
