One doesn't understand what you can't understand!

The current crop of big bore quads, are fed by the same mentality that brought us monster gas guzzler cars from the 50's and 60's. The public is silly enough to think this is what they need, and the manufacturers are more than willing to take your money!

 

But it is what i need

 

It's all smoke and mirrors anyway. While everybody in here makes a fuss about the big bores, what the real public out there is actually buying is the 400 class machines........

go to www.yamahamotor.com/outdoor and order the free grizzly 700 dvd. In the dvd they test all of the bigbore atvs, and if you watch it you will probly choose the grizzly 700 fi eps like i did.</end quote></div>



And then watch every other brands dvd, and you will want to buy that ATV. Whatever dvd you watch, that brand will always outperform the others.</end quote></div>

I watched the arctic cat video from the website, and home made videos of the rest of the big bores, and they actually drove me to the grizz even more.

 

the local dealers around here don't stock a 400 ute. only the honda dealer does and nobody goes there.the public knows what they want and they will build it.do i need a 400hp car. no. do i get excited when i nail it ,listen to the motor and tires scream. YES I DO.the world is full of stuff people don't need but is sure is fun

 

back on topic check out the thundercat from artic cat nothing is bigger 1000cc's and 4wd

 

honda rincon or rubicon

 

If tight, technical trails are what you prefer, I feel nothing can beat a Yamaha Grizzly (Kodiak) 450. Every article I ever read on it praises its ability in tight wooded areas with varying terrain. It kind of gives you the best of all worlds with it's good ground clearance, independent rear suspension along with excellent stability.

 

Yes, the smaller machines are excellent at tight trails. When i encounter tight trails, i push the throttle and make the trail wider[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

I used to have 99 Wolverine. Bike was smaller, had less travel and ground clearance, did very well for the size of it, but....it couldn't begin to go where my Cat can. Like V2 said, you just mash the throttle and make them tight trails a little wider. An option you don't have with the "little" bikes.
