I don't know much about that model of Honda. However, based on my experience with the 300cc Polaris, I would not even think about getting a tire bigger than 25". You just don't have enough power....and it will probably still be doggy with a 25.

589's are always a good mud tire. Mudlites are too...and a little smoother on trails.
