got a chance to buy one of these quads with next to no miles on it and was woundering if they are a reliable hard working machine with a long life expectancy. Any pros and cons or trouble spots regaurding this bike would be appreciated.

 

Just bought one myself. I used to have a Kodiak and used it on the farm to haul steel up and down from my landfill. My '49 Ford 8N tractor wouldn't pull my loaded trailer up and down that hill and I had to put my help on the front rack of the Kodiak to get traction but no problem after that. Some daredevil stole it so I have the solid rear 600 now because I was afraid I was working the crap out of the Kodiak and the price was right. The 600 has WAY too much motor and will carry me too fast while having fun but it's nice to have. I stand on the pegs all the time as the solid axle will beat you up but I'm an MX'er with a bad back and used to it. So who has a manual for these? Being air cooled I need the valve specs!
