As someone who's hunted with an ATV in camp since the early 90's - IDGAF what axles are under it.

I care bout 1 thing first - does it start and run - every time. That's basically it.

Yamaha has never let me down. Were I to buy new tomorrow, it's the only brand I'll look at. Atv or Side by Side.

I wish this one had an hours meter or odometer. Bought new in 93. Run every weekend in fall in MI, 4 trips to Canada, multiple trips to MN, KY, MO, IL, IA hunting and hauling gear. Winters on the ice fishing and pleasure riding.

Happens to be solid axle. IIRC, on its 4th battery and 2nd set if handlebars. Routinely double the weight "limit" on the racks. No issue.
