It really depends on the bike's purpose in life. if your looking for something to get the job done, whatever the job may be, then a sportsman 500 is right up your alley. in fact polaris is almost the only way to go. i might also recommend looking what arctic cat has to offer. If your looking for a rough an tumble trail beast then i recommend a can am renegade or kawasaki kfx 700, if you looking to pick something up cheaper look for an old polaris scrambler or bombadier DS-650 (this is a bike i own, its like a cadillac, big, powerful, squishy). last but not least you have the hotrods. there are to many options here so ill narrow it down quick. 450. anything 450. i recommend the yfz 450 (cousin owns one, so much tourque on that bike), but anything 450 should suffice. if your just learning to ride then get a 400. there is a saying out in the sand dunes: "the better bike you have the less rider you have to be, why do you think mine is so souped up?" im not saying pick up the baddest hotrod out there cuz, quite frankly, it will scare you away from the sport. these are all bikes that ive ridden and found decent enough to vouch for.
