Let's be fair polaris is a 500 cc not 450cc, the honda has much bigger tires than stock and heavier to the polaris should go against the Rubicon (older 500 Rubicon)

[@robertsalyers1351]

I've owned 3 different 4 wheelers 1 polaris 400 HO and 2 Hondas a Forman 500 and now a Rancher 420 4x4 es

[@johnsonoutdoors8117]

“This is what usually what happens” I feel that I have an old 2x4 Honda trx200sx if I find mud I easily get stuck in any really muddy trail

[@WolfinWolvesClothing713]

Ugh... nice try, but hung up is hung up. Lol. How you gonna plan on doing a 4 wheeler video in your clean shoes? 😄

[@LCPowersports]

Haha we didn't plan on doing the mud part it just happened haha! And don't make me go back there and full send it through that mud! Haha

[@vincentlee3434]

Again, many sour Honda fans!

[@LCPowersports]

I own the honda but you really can't be sour haha the Polaris is just a better machine in those categories!

[@rolop847]

​@@LCPowersports I like my Hondas they always have started for me, not my polaris. So I like them both they just do things a little differently.

[@chrisbeard6897]

Would love to see the IRS Rancher compared to the POPO! great video

[@yeet_savage7499]

Polaris would still win bud

[@chrisruiz8047]

@@yeet_savage7499 ramcher is lil faster that polaris

[@rolop847]

Also let's see how long the polaris lasts, (I have 3 - 40 year old honda 3 wheelers that still run. 2 of the motors have not been opened , all stock.

[@johnniewalker3273]

The Polaris 450 sportsman is actually 499 cc so it might not be an Apple's to Apple's comparison.

[@robertsalyers1351]

If you're 12 miles into the woods what's your pick? Honda or Polaris

[@LCPowersports]

Either! I'd trust my polaris over my honda

[@ellisbeltran7108]

Lets try again in 5 years. Wait those polaris might not be alive anymore by then. 😂 jk good video

[@LCPowersports]

Haha there's some truth in that! Thanks man!

[@keithcliburn505]

My sportsman. Even i completely agree. They own the reliability world. No one can argue that.

[@mannyman1604]

I'll take a Honda over a Polaris any day.

[@LCPowersports]

Your right i would rather have a polaris for trails

[@lifewaidan7517]

@@LCPowersports I personally own a sportsman 400 and a Honda rancher and the rancher never let me down, the Polaris is faster because it has a cvt but those can slip while in wet conditions where Honda’s foot shifts are beasts

[@LCPowersports]

@@lifewaidan7517 yeah they both have their own goods and bads

[@frogprepper]

@@LCPowersports appreciate this comparison because i am trying to choose between these two machines in the 2021 models, the Honda in my area is around 5500 and the sportsman is 1k more, both base models, Is the polaris worth another $1000 .........?

[@LCPowersports]

@@frogprepper id say so!

[@RealTalkPowersports]

Man i love this video!! Great comparison.. I think yall had fun making this one

[@LCPowersports]

Yeah we kinda realized we haven't had much time on either of them. We plan on doing more like this with some different machines!

[@LCPowersports]

What all are yall bringing to burdens machine wise?

[@RealTalkPowersports]

@@LCPowersports bringing my 800 and the zforce 950 and then we will have jerricas 2021 800 as backup. Fixing my radiator on my 800 tomorrow so I can drive it most of the time. And jerrica will drive the 950.. and we may swap. I want you to drive both mine

[@LCPowersports]

@@RealTalkPowersports sweet and yes I'm ready for that! I'll have all of ours and I'm sure keith will have there 2 and I think Mark is gonna try to make it also!

[@RealTalkPowersports]

@@LCPowersports man im pumped!!!

[@HydeMyJekyll]

I'm not sure I understand the point of driving them through a mud hole like that. Both of these machines are great for just about everything, but why on God's green Earth would you intentionally drive straight through a hole like that for no reason?

[@LCPowersports]

Cause thats what we do😂 you gotta test them out

[@kerberbelz7351]

Newer ranchers have front diff hill would have been a lot easier if he turned it on

[@LCPowersports]

This one just has 2 or 4 wheel drive no extra stuff.

[@powersportsenthusiast1986]

a few hundred lbs more? more like 100, but still a good difference.... pretty good video regardless

[@LCPowersports]

Yeah I don't know why we said a few hundred 😂 Thanks though!

[@aaronchristianson]

I’ve been trying to decide between the Polaris 450 ($6999) and the Honda 420 ($5900). After watching this I’m leaning more towards the Polaris despite the additional $1100.

[@LCPowersports]

Yeah I wouldn't pick the honda again. It's a good machine though!

[@LCPowersports]

Iv been riding a cforce 500 lately and it does great as well!

[@aaronchristianson]

I’ll be sure to check out the cforce 500 as well. Thank you!!

[@LCPowersports]

@@aaronchristianson it's on my newest videos.

[@aaronchristianson]

Thoughts on the cforce 500 ($6000) vs polaris 450 ($6999)?

[@Chad-v4j]

Beating up on those small utilities 😂😂

[@adrianarteagas4816]

Maybe 2 Polarisis can move the ranger 🤔

[@reginaldthorne]

Polaris suffers from home sickness. They always want to go back to the dealer’s repair shop.

[@yeet_savage7499]

Don’t be a Honda boy

[@AndresLopez-nq8tc]

Agreed

[@keithcliburn505]

Whaaaaa. That ranger a beast though

[@LCPowersports]

Heck yeah!

[@LCPowersports]

Im ready to do another one already!

[@RealTalkPowersports]

hahaha i love it!

[@adrianarteagas4816]

Maybe 2 plararisis can move the ranger

[@nighthawkj30A4]

If the people at Honda wanted too they could release a machine that would put polaris out of business. Mean look at the J Series V6 Engines greatest V6 you could put in Acura MDX or 7th gen Accord.

[@LCPowersports]

What a day that would be

[@shaggys73]

but yet they still just put out the same machine for the last 10 years .... honda will never be king again....looks at the talon what a pile of crap

[@nighthawkj30A4]

Honda use Actual transmissions polaris using some crappy Cvt system.

[@Vatech-gj2tw]

Everyone but Honda!

[@stevenmiddagh6265]

Yup, Honda is that far behind the rest of the industry

[@rolop847]

​@@stevenmiddagh6265 Honda does not like the cvt and will never use one ever on quads. (On my old Honda the transmission never slipped in mud or water, (had water up to my gas tank) my polaris was in half as much water and the clutch slipped from water leaking in.

[@KUBBI7488]

honda all day for me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
