There is only one bike i would even consider without power steering, a 2006 silver Brute Force.............

power steering really not needed only really good in slow speeds other then that you don't even notice it

I agree I have 2 can ams the newer one has power steering older one doesn't..... The older quad is my wife's..... She never complained about steering it..... At slow speeds, loading trailer parking in garage , slow speed tight corners on trails it's noticeable but as soon as your above like 15-20kph hardly notice a difference. But on the other hand for the few extra bucks I'd still buy power steering lol good luck on your decision lol

Still takes most of the jarring out of the bars in the roughy stuff too.

not onll does it make steering easier ie slow speeds , deep mud etc etc it also significantly reduces feedback from ruts etc etc no you dont need it but if u buy without it and ride someones with it you will be kickin your arse.
not sure about quads but put the unisteer kit in wifes rhino and works great

happy wife = more riding

 

[arff]

Way easier to run someone over with power steering too.....

 

[AreWeThereYet]

Have it on my rhino, pretty nice to steer with one hand and shoot with the other.

Power steering all the way man! If you ride much in the mountains you'll be grateful when decending down rocky, washed out trails. Also, the power steering acts like a dampener when you hit an object like a rock or log at speed - without it, you're much more likely to have the handle bars ripped out of your hands and/or veer off the trail.

As for the brand, you put 5 people in a room and you'll get 7 different opinions. Personally, I think the PoPo is great value and a nice ride, but will likely require considerably more maintenance than the CanAm if you ride it like you stole it. They all have their ups and downs, but overall I'm partial to the CanAm - power, reliability, service, and maintenance. ...after Yamaha, of course.

This sums it all up. Well said.
