I am currently trying to decide on a bike to buy. I will be using it for trail riding, for brush hogging, and creating food plots for hunting. I am sure that I will occasionally pull a small trailer from time to time. I would also like to use it to clear snow from my driveway in the winter. Many of my friends take their bike to the sand dunes once a year, so I would also like to do that. I know that I want a 4x4, independent rear suspension, and digital display. I was recently introduced to fuel injection, but didn't know if that was really necessary. The bikes that I have been looking at include: Grizzley, Kodiak, Sportsman, Brute Force, and King Quad. Any help/suggestions/reccomendations would be GREATLY appreciated.

 

I think you cant go wrong with any atv from Yamaha,Honda Suzukia. I'd just stay away from Polaris. To many friends with too many problems and I got just over 1000 trouble free miles from my Kodiak.

 

just over 2000 miles sorta trouble free on my kodiak, and yeah, stay away from polaris

 

All of those should do what you need. Quads and motorcycles have been running on carbs for decades now. Do you need efi- NO. On the other hand, efi is the way the industry is starting to lean. I predict within 5 years most new quads will be sold with efi. Time to hit up a few dealerships and have a look around[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

I recommend the King Quad. It's been great for me and the best-bang-for-the-buck right now. It does work with ease, tons of torque in Low gear, and for playing around it's got a 70mph+ top speed and you'll get there in a hurry, the ride is good and the handling is good. It's just a really well balanced and fun ATV hard not to recommend it.

 

I would either go with the Grizzly or Brute Force, not saying that the other ones are bad or anything but in my opinion the best in the group. Good luck with your purchase. Make sure you do alot of homework on all of them and test drive all the quads you can.

 

Just so you know, the Grizzly and the Brute Force 750 don't have EFI and the King Quad does and the King Quad's MSRP is less than the BF 750 and very close to the same as the Grizzly 660. The absolute best part of having EFI on the King Quad is that you get excellent gas milage, and you don't have to worry about choke.
