Thank you everyone for your input. The best two deals I have been able to find so far is a '05 Grizzly with 700 miles for $3750 and a '05 Brute Force for $4500 with 596 miles. I am thinking the $750 difference isn't worth the additional CCs of the BF.

Amazing deal on the grizzly take it before its gone. BTw dont get brute force not near as good as the grizzly, unless all you do is 3 foot deep mudding.

If you were looking for a completely fun machine, the Kawi Brute Force is a SWEET machine. So much power, and a diff lock when you need it. Most people say that it's only good for mudding, it's a great all around trail riding. That, or if you can find a used Can Am Outlander or Renegade 800. The Can Ams make a little bit more power, and if you can get the Can Ams for a good price like the Brute Force, I would definitely get it.

Good luck!

Yep, the Grizz sounds like a deal as long as it hasn't been sitting too long.

Hope the deal works out.

P.S. Where are you located in NE PA? I'm also in the same area.

I took the Grizz for a test ride and it began to backfire and stalled out when I had it full throttle. Like you mentioned DCT, the guy said it sat for the last 4 months so maybe the gas is bad. I will have to wait and see if he can get it fixed.

BTW: I typically ride in nesquehoning PA on Broad Mountain

Yep, make sure you are completely satisfied with it before you buy it.

You're down the road quite a ways from me. I'm closer to the Wilkes-Barre area. Nice where you are down there by Jim Thorpe.

Be sure to check everything over on the machine because once you buy it, its as is where is. Also always to remember to look for leans that the owner might have on the bike. If they have a lean and you dont make the check payable to the bank then any money owing on the bike gets put off onto you. My dad and i got so fed up of looking at junky used atvs that had been beat up so badly that we bought a brand new 2008 kingquad that was reasonably priced at a local dealer
