2001 Honda FourTrax Foreman Rubicon

Pros: High quality, reliable, and durable. A very versatile machine. Best of the best.
Cons: A 3.7 gallon gas tank? Someone at Honda needs to rethink this one.

OK. If you are like me, I spent many (and I do mean many) hours on comparing makes and models of ATVs. I narrowed the search down to five different ATVs in the same size class. First you have to ask yourself, "what are my needs when buying an...

Pros: No Shifting, Digital Dash, ES mode
Cons: OIL FILTER LOCATION, Lack of power, poor performance in mud, reliability

Ok, you can tell I'm not real happy with my honda. As I write this, my rubicon is in the shop, for the second time. The first time was the front shafts had slid out of the differential, and I complained that it had no power. Now, for the second time,...

Pros: The transmission, lighting system, sits very comfortably, light steering
Cons: Full time 4WD, gas tank, drum brakes, suspension could be better

Congratulations go out to Honda for making the most technology advanced ATV out there. That transmission is definitely something. If I was getting an automatic quad, it would definitely be the Rubicon. I had my first ride on one a couple of months ago....

Pros: Powerful, bulletproof, reliability, HONDA
Cons: Rear brake lights

I have had my Rubicon for about two months. Before the rubicon, I had two different Ranchers 4x4. I loved the rancher, but it got stole so I bought the rubicon. Best decision I ever made. The rubicon has awesome torque and power. The rubicon isn't quite...

Pros: Smooth power, good ride, excellent resale value, quality construction
Cons: Needs a larger fuel tank, Disc brakes would be nice, Honda should put brake lights on it's ATVs

I was looking for a reliable, somewhat sporty quad that could go anywhere and have fun doing it. I found it in the 2001 Honda Rubicon. Honda has always been known for their quality and reliable products and I feel they have done nothing to diminish that...

Pros: Automatic or standard transmission No belt Excellent engine braking Digital dash Raised foot pegs
Cons: Suspension way too stiff Seat too hard gear shift problem Rattle in motor

I just bought a Rubicon three days ago. I sold my 2000 Polaris Sportsman 500 and was planning to buy a Polaris Sportsman 500 HO, but I started looking around at other atvs. I heard a lot about the Honda Rubicon and its new transmission. I had a lot of...

Pros: 4x4 Look no farther.
Cons: Cons and foreman do not co-exist.

Undoubtedly the best four wheeler in existance. The foreman with the Electronic shift is by far one of the most easy and powerful machines on the market. The electronic shifting allows you to shift on the fly with the ease of pushing a button. The...

Pros: Loves Deep Water, Has lots of torque to overcome rocks and boulders.
Cons: Expensive Toy.

The Honda Rubicon is truely a Steel Horse. I ride with a lot of people who drive Honda ATV's. When it comes down to blazing a trail, the Rubicon is the leader in setting the pace!!! Not a Whimpy Quad by any means!!! Not for the weak hearted!! The Ruby...

Pros: No Shifting required, very easy to ride, low to the ground, very powerful.
Cons: Small gas tank; weight (600 pounds dry)

I set out to buy a ATV (quad) for myself, and a dirtbike for my wife (her idea). After countless hours of research, reading, and shopping, I narrowed it down to two models. In the end I came home with the Honda Foreman Rubicon.

After having...

Pros: HONDA! Need I say more? Fantastic transmission. Ultra reliable.
Cons: Could use independent rear suspension. Needs selectable 4wd and 2wd.

The first thing you'll notice when you straddle the seat is Honda's quality and attention to detail. This is about as user-friendly as well as maintenance-free machine one will ever have.
Press the starter and the Rubicon fires to life with a low...

Pros: It's a honda, it can be automatic or manual, it has drum brakes
Cons: nothing

The rubicon is the best atv ever made. It has no chain so your belt will never slip or break. Everything from the brakes to the engine is completly waterproof. The rubicon can be switched from automatic to maunual in a flick of a button. You also have...

Pros: can be auto.,manual,or d1 or d2, sealed transmission, fully waterproof, drum brakes
Cons: 3.7 gas tank, no brake lights, stiff suspension.

Last augest 2001 i bought a honda foreman rubicon 2001 model and it is sweet. i have taken this thing through hell and back and it smiles asking for more. this atv can not be hurt or damaged easily. The best thing about this atv is that it is automatic...

Pros: hondamatic, design, suspension, power
Cons: price

Hats off to Honda! It might seem like they are behind the times -- just coming out with their first automatic ATV, but they just took their time to get it right. I knew this bike would be great, but when we brought the demo model home to test out, it...

Pros: hondamatic,ergonomics,styling,honda quality
Cons: drum brakes, full time 4x4, suspension gas tank,light front end

I have owned a 92 polaris;a 96 sportsman; and (3) 2000 sportsman's(had a little theft problem).This spring i decided to try the rubicon, and 3600 very rough miles later i have decided to return home to polaris.
I haven't had any problems with the...

Pros: Very smooth ride and very quiet. I have no problems climbing anything.
Cons: A little pricey.

I love this ATV. When my husband said he wanted to get an ATV I was skeptical, but finally agreed. Now, it is my ATV, not his. I love it. It is so smooth. Plus, the automatic shifting is great. We used to have a Rancher 4x4 which was also great but...
