Ahhh my 04 Honda fourtrax 350 (329 cc) fm weighs in at 524lbs dry weight.

2017 Honda 420 weighs in at 586lbs dry weight....just a little fatty, needs to trim up a bit

Your right there is a lot of stuff stuck into these machines to make the wk-end Warriors ride nicer

To the OP buy what suits your fancy...270 or 30-06...campfire discussion.
