it really all depends on what kind of riding you do. if you do lots of trails then maybe you'd like the honda a bit better. if you do a lot of track riding or lots of fast open roads or pits then you might like the LTR. both bikes are fairly good its just all in what you want it for.

no problems really... kinks that have been worked out and have easy fixes. change oil and filter your gas and you will be ok

Durhamtown only has 2 or 3 atv trails that the LTR won't fit thru. I would say you could go with either, both are good machines and all machines will have their problems. If you prefer riding roads and tracks I would say the LTR would be good for you, but if you like to find the tighter trails, I would probably get the Honda unless you want to spend $$ to narrow up the LTR.

Also, where in GA are all of these machines getting stolen from? I also live in GA and was wondering if this is happening close to my area.

both of them have great power so no matter which one you get you wont be disappointed with the power (well you shouldnt be). if i were you just go to local dealers and try them both out then you should know which one you like

Personally i'd just sit on both quads and see which one felt more comfortable to me. Are you buying used? If yes, find the best deal you can and go with that. If new, im sure you could find a good deal on a left over 450R model, they haven't been improved since 06 so you're good to get a left over. The LTR has been upgraded a lot for the new year.
