I pretty much have my eyes set on a Foreman, but just don't know which one yet. Since I don't know which Foreman I am going to buy I looked at my list and found everything that could go on all three. Out of this list below list three items that you think I should buy before I get the Foreman. Here is the list: Highlifter Hitch Lift IPI Pro-Series Contour Bag IPI Pro-Series Saddle Bag IPI Pro 2 Fender Bag Maier Plastic Handguards Flat Extra Gas Tank Aluminum 1.5” Wheel Spacers RAM Cup Holder RAM Spotlight Highlifter Radiator Washer Honda Warning Labels from www.2faroffroad.comHL Front and Rear Tow Hooks ** What 3 accessories do you think I should get before I get the Foreman? Please Help, Thanks!  |

A lift with wheels and claws! Sorry, I know they weren't on the list. But I think the factory rubber and ground clearance sucks. IMO.  |

Hey mountainman which out of those three? I already know pretty much which rubber and ground clearence i'm getting. 28" Outlaws or 27" Mudzillas on either ITP Chrome Delta Wheels or ITP "DNA" Wheels with a lift kit, lift springs, and hitch lift. Don't worry, i've got MOST of it planned out. |

You won't need lift springs for a while. I've learned this personally. My Foreman has more GC than someone in another forum with an '03 that has no lift and stockers. The primary reason is his springs sag a bit. If you get them while it's still new, as far as I know all you're going to get is a stiffer ride.
Of those three things I'd get the flat gas tank, hand guards, and the front and rear tow hooks if you aren't planning on a winch.

I agree with ya on the lift springs. As long as the stockers are still good, leave 'em be. However, if you were in my situation with a 5 year old quad and the springs were weak, the lift springs are awesome. Between the lift and the springs, I got between 2 and 4 inches more GC.

The springs won't be until the stock ones start to go out. The stock tires on other hand MIGHT be off the first or second day I get it if I can get my cousin to take my Outlaws off the Rancher for me if he can sell the Rancher for me, which we are not sure yet if he will be able to. I will only use the stock tires if I have to, but if I can get others I will defantly take them over the stock ones.
MudKing450S,
I do plan on getting a winch, but the front tow hitch will be right between the lights away from the winch when I do get the winch.

Not sure yet. Its just whatever they have at the dealer that I can afford, BUT this time it will be whatever Foreman I can buy and not a Rancher. I know a couple of honda dealers I can go to check out. So lets just say I won't know until the day of buying one.

Id be lookin at a 500. I mean look at it. They already got skid plates, pipes, and engine mods. And you can put any tires and wheels on. I know they have made everything for the 450 almost but still it would be cool for someone in hear to have a 500.

All they did was make the engine about 45-50 cc's larger. And who would pay $6,000 for something that looks like that?! |

I think he's referring to aftermarket accessories by "Skids Pipes and Engine Mods"  |
