Harley did go with another company and they did make a quad, It was called canindale (sorry about the spelling), It sounded like it would rattle it self apart. They didn't sale many, and yes they where expensive.


Cannondale is a bicycle company primarily that (to my knowledge) has NOTHING to do with Harley Davidson. They did make ATVs for a few years, and from what I remember were pretty competitive. I'm not much of a sport ATV enthusiast though, but someone here can surely add more.


DO NOT CLICK THIS (very addicting!)

The very first four wheeler built on a production line was a Suzuki,and no one liked them because of the hard steering,Big Red Hondas(3 wheelers) were the rage of the hunting camps in the south.Harley-Davidson got Porsche to build a great engine for their new bike,but forgot to engineer a drive train.I wish BMW built a four wheeler or a Ute. Just think, a BMW ute, I wonder what it would look like?I bet it wouldn't look like the New BIG RED !!!!

I bet it would look ugly as hell and cost more than all of the current utility ATVs put together... But atleast your riding a BMW

Who makes the best ATV?...That's like saying who's the most beautiful woman in the world..it's in the eye of the beholder.My 03 Sportsman 400 is the best ATV as far as I'm concerned and my wife is the most beautiful woman.There are people out there who would argue with me on both points(What did you expect me to say about my wife)..Anyway, if a person has a good ATV that is reliable,functional and pleasing to the eye then that is the best one for them.Just my humble opinion but someday my next ATV will be a brand new Polaris Sportsman.

Awsome statement. Very true, and very diplomatic. Any ATV that does what you need, takes you where you want to go, and gets you back, is the best ATV for you at that moment. An ATV will do it's best to get you where you want to go. A wife always' seems to hold you back. An ATV doesn't mind if you test ride another. A wife won't even let you look over the specifications of another women.

Watch out W3. Willie doesn't need Viagra, just mention anything Military, and he stands at attention, with a full salute.
