Just sold my 660 Grizzly...now what?
#1
I really didn't want to sell it..yet. I was planning on keeping it,,,for a while anyway. But my bud really wanted it, and has the cash right now, so..it is perfect for him,,,he's a real hunter kinda guy, and real big, it suits him perfectly, and I can still borrow it back...It has a thousand miles on it, Douglas wheels, spidertrax tires and a winch. $6 g's.
....Of course I still have my DS, nothing made tempts me away from that. The Grizz was our ranch ride, loaner, search and rescue vehicle, and will need to be replaced.
....The Honda Rincon is at the top of the list for new Ranch ride, loaner, search and rescue vehicle...Sure wish that prarie v-twin had I.R.S. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]
.....Ultimately, the Grizz, after rolling twice, is a little top heavy for our kind of "spirited" riding. I must also say that it's handling in the sandwashes always seemed a little squirrly, and even the widetrack treatment didn't cure that. A little re-geometry in the front end, maybe some different tires would have helped, but, It's a done deal. Bye-Bye Grizz,,,Hello next quad. Number 12 in 3 years,,,GAKK!!
Here they are,,,,,plus a one to five star rating system *****

Polaris 325 Magnum (My first, snore)**
Arctic Cat 500 auto (took it back after 106 miles)*

Skyler is my 13 year old son, who started all this when he was 10 with, "Daddy I want a 4-wheeler!"
Ian will be 5 in April...

I bought one of the Kawasaki Prairie 650 for my wife when they first came out and we have had a lot of fun on it. It will smoke a Grizzly 660 in a drag race and power slides without the top heavy feel of a quad with independent rear suspension. I installed one of our custom exhaust systems with a dynojet kit and wheelies are no problem. The gas tank is mounted between the frame rails for a low center of gravity and dual road racing carbs are stock. Just a thought for the next project
