Hi red96!
I had a Rubicon for almost two years an the last six months was enough to convince me to trade it.I had a lot of electronic problem with it,this bike is allergic to water and heat.The ecu was making the transmission to work bad,the mechanic part of it is super but the electronic part had some problem.First thing there is a sensor that's really important that's located right under neat the exhaust and bolted in the case at that location it is taking too much heat and that's making it to fail.My dealer had to change the hole wiring harness to make it run.I never took back my rubi i left it at the dealer on a trade in on a rincon so i dont' have the end of the story for the rubi problem.
The dealer and honda always gave me satisfaction so i cant' complaint on there service.

My rubicon had 3500 Miles on it when i sold it and it was used in VERY deep mud and Very extreme conditions with 27" 589's. I NEVER had a single problem with it. I never drove a single mile with the stock tires had them changed at dealership (before i got married i had money LOL). Now I cant even afford tires MONTHS later on my rincon..shesh... But, back to topic, the Rubicon is a GREAT bike. My brother has one with 2700 miles on it and it runs GREAT! My next bike is going to be a rubicon or the TRX450R
