i havent had any experience with artic cats, but hondas are indestructable. espcially the formans. yes they might only be 3/400cc complared to the artic cat, but i bet you anything that itll take you treating it like a race bike for as long as you can and then use it to pull a ton of bricks down to the back of the block any time you want. well maybe not all the time, but you get my point. service is good as well.
i have one for my block work, ive had it for about 2 years now, and its taken everything i can throw at it and still done good.
