Mid-level quads
I'm looking at buying a mid-level quad. I recently have been riding a friend of mines 06 Kodiak 450. I really like the machine but am wondering what kinda problems have been had with that model. I also like the Rubicon i have several friends with them and they love them, but i want something with a good riding suspension. I know the Rubicon is tough, but i wish it was independent. I used to have a 03 AC 400i. It just didn't have enough guts. I put 26inch Mudlites on it but it lacked power on bottom end. I could still out mud my friends cause most of them ride Honda formans and rubi's. But i had 14.5 inches of clearance so i could go through alot even with the lack of power. The arctic cat just feels big and clumsy. Thats another reason i like the yamaha. And i would also like something with a diff lock. I'm not bias against diffrent brands, ex. polaris. Mainly i just trail ride and like to climb hills, and ride hard with my friends sometimes in the winter at our cabins. Which ever wheeler i get, i'd like to put 26 inch tires on again, probably mud-lites cause they great tires so keep that in mind also. Anyone with any suggestions would be great. Thanks

try the suzuki vinson 500. mine is the auto version, love it! best handling 500 out there - hands down! it doesn't have IRS but still rides pretty good w/ the adj shocks on ALL 4 corners. lacks a locker but goes VERY well in mud and snow-wouldn't let that influence the final decision. most people will never need one anyway. as far as permance goes, if its not #1, its a very close second (but to what?) best of both worlds sport & utility! just DO your homework B4 buying!
