I am considering a bayou 300 2x4 and i would like to here yall's opinion good or bad.

Thanks,

 

Is this the model that you can unlock the rear end so it is easier on the turf?

I wasn't sure if they still made that one.

 

yes, it has dual mode rear differential.

 

Those are super reliable from what I understand. Its an all utility
machine, but there nothing wrong with that. A farmer about 3 miles away has one. I don't know the person but I see him using it every once in awhile.

I like the idea of being able to unlock the rear end myself because with a normal quad on the lawn you will tear the grass up pretty bad if you turn in one spot all the time and the Bayou 300 2x4 shouldn't do that.

I like the Kawasaki 300 myself for that reason alone.

I wish my Honda 300 4x4 could unlock.

 

The bayou 300 2wd was my first utility atv. It does what it's supposed to do and was super reliable. I rode it for 2 years (before upgrading to a prarie 400) and then sold it to my dad and he rode it for two years before upgrading to a prarie 300. It not ever once gave us a hickup of a problem.
I was just looking for more in an atv than what the bayou 2wd was designed to do. The fun factor isn't really there. If I was buying a 300 class quad for work- this is a good one, for anything else (sport utility) I'd be looking at the Ozark, or something else.
My dad rode my automatic prarie and new that's what he wanted also. Prarie 300 is just alot more bike all around.

 

my brother has a 99 bayou 330 2x4

it s pretty fun to ride,

and the lock unlock dif, is nice
