Looking for used utility ATV recommendations

When buying used, you cannot be too picky on your wants/needs or you will never find the exact machine you want. I purchased a 2007 Kawasaki 650 Brute Force about 3 years ago and I have been relatively pleased with its performance. It is a carburetor model (before fuel injection on that model) and that can cause some fumes in the TH when traveling but nothing serious. I have had a little trouble when pulling the mower at 90+ temps and it overheating (slow speeds and not enough air). I guess this is a common problem with this model and you must keep the radiator cleaned out when operating in those temps. This has not been a problem when using at cooler temperatures.
I use mine for plowing snow (Warn), Rough cut mowing (Agri-fab), Discing food plots and broadcast planting.
The transmission on mine is an automatic with high and low speeds and of course reverse. The 650 has awesome power for pulling the disc and dragging cut limbs etc. but this is a little bigger than the machine I was initially wanting.
I hope this helps a little. Best of luck.
