You guys are really going to be disapointed if you are buying a motobishi and expecting Yamaha quality. I have said it before. From the outside the parts look the same but that is where the difference stops. Most Yamaha parts are probably built in the same plant but the manufacturing tolerances, material quality and QC are way higher on the Yamaha. Put them side by side and you will see. The "all things made in China" arguement has no relevance.

The Motobishi is one of the better if not the best Chinese brand out there but it is cheaper for a reason. In a long term test I will but a Yamaha Rhino against a Motobishi without hesitation, especially in the type of environment we ride in. If you have a RHino 660 on the farm you are not looking close enough to see the differences. The thickness in metal and quality of welds is what most people miss and is one of the more important manufacturing qualities.

A good indicator is comparing them to Can-am. Motobishi has been making ATV as long as Can-am has. Up until a couple of years ago Can-am was really overpriced when compared to the rest of the ATV industry. Canam as clawed out about 4-5% market shares with an overpriced machine. What does MOtobishi have for market shares? None really as they don't show on most reports. One would think if the quality was as good as the name brand machines for half the price they would be blowing the name brand sales out of the water.
