Potential Cforce 500s buyer
« on: January 13, 2018, 11:31:49 PM »
I am in the market for a new/used ATV. I was initially looking at a used Honda 420. For around the same price as a new 500s.     The local dealer talked them up alot. But I know they are a salesman and pushing a product.   Can I hear some good and bad experiences with the Cforce 500s

I have a 2013 model and have not had any problems with it. I use it for hunting, weed spraying (with 100LT water/chemicial) and towing a 5' mower. Had to replace the original battery last year and the tyres are getting worn down after nearly 3,000Km but it has never let me down. I would buy another one when this one dies (if ever).

The product is good with excellent value when you compare standard feature of the EPS  model to other brands.

My suggestion would be to research the dealer you are working with. Your dealer needs to better than average to properly service & maintain this brand as the manufacturer is not going to do it for them.

The 500s is is a good unit, but still working out it's design flaws. I had a 500s and liked it, but needed lots of little fixes.
Honda is more reliable and has a longer life span.
If it has Pistons or Tits you will encounter problems.
