Im in the market for a "new" 4 wheeler and im looking at a 1998 Arctic Cat 454 or a 2007 Yamaha BB 400. Which would be the better buy? The AC is older and in the process of getting fixed the gentleman (who is also my boss) fixing it buys, fixes, then sells 4 wheelers and I don't know whats wrong with it, whereas the BB is newer but has had 2 or 3 boots replaced in its lifetime and cant idle unless choked, and has rims for a straight axle but its an irs so im worried about bearings plus I know this bike and its had a hard life.

 

What's the prices? I would go for the Big Bear if the price is right. I don't know of any ATV that hasn't had a hard life.

 

both are 1500.

 

Their are many that do little more then plow a driveway or pull a dock out at a cottage or go on a once a year moose hunting trip.

The 350 I just bought was from a older couple that just like to ride a gravel road in the fall to see the leaves change colour.
When you see one from a older couple with a windshield, stock tires that look new and rear passenger seat , buy it.

I do not want a used ATV from a middle man like a used ATV dealer, I want it before the guy sells it to the dealer.

 

I think the arctic cat has the stock tires, I THINK but hold me to it.
