    rincon 650

    I want to know if anyone has ridden a rincon 650? I might get a 4x4 this year and I heard they are good handleing quads.

    They are good handling quads indeed; although they are weak for a 650 because of the lack of low range. If you are looking for a bike just to ride around they are awesome, but if you are looking for something to put bigger tires on and go hit some mud then I would get another bike.

    Don't get me wrong I love the looks of the Rinny and it's a nice bike, but for what I do (straight mud with big tires) it's not a good choice. For trail riding and the ocasional mud with smaller tires it's an awesome bike.

    Yeh I'm not looking for a mud runner. Just something that I can eventually mod up. I do fast trail riding and sometimes mud. The mud around here is always managable even on my EX. Thanks for you input!!!

    Apparently you have never ridden one or never had one before. The torque converter won't do any good if you don't have low enough gears to use your torque. Gears are what get the power to the ground and the Rincon just doesn't have low enough gears to turn big tires or mud efficiently.

    I have ran with a thousand Rincons and they just don't have any low end power compared to any other big bore out there.
