Ive never really been around a Can-am...no dealers within 100 miles would be the reason for that. But i really like the Honda rincon. their a 680 i believe. Fuel injection, automatic and a real comfortable ride. I feel like i could ride one for days and never have to get off. Im not much into the utility part of our sport but just giving my .02 cents.

I love the outlander 800, but its the only canam I have ridden so I am not sure about their smaller ones. I have spent a good amount of time on it and I would definitely own one if I could afford it.

I have also spent a great deal of time on hondas, mostly 400 4x4 and rubicon 500's. I grew up with honda. I like the simplicity and the reliability. They have adequate power for what they are, but some of the fun factor isn't there.

I know a couple guys with smaller canam's and they seem to really like them.

If I was going to get a 4x4, i would go canam. But you ought to try to ride both and see which fits you better.

Good Luck

in the 4X4 world between those brands, if i had the moolah id get a renegade :D, but for the smaller ones id still go with canam and take a outlander yeah you may get reliability with honda but as said (ive ridden or owned every one at one time or another except a rincon) the fun factor just isnt there and resale value is a joke (or that could be true for any other brand im just sayin for sure on honda)

good luck!!

Not a 4X4 guy but I always liked the rincon. But I am pretty brand bias.
