Ola I need help on picking a ATV for me and hope somebody can tell me whats perfect for be based on what im looking for.

• I need speed. i dont know the average speed of an ATV but i know i want something fast.
  
• 4WD
  
• im not good with shifting so i would like an automatic but would learn if its absolutely necessary
  
• i was looking at the Yamaha Wolverine or something that has the same design model

Thats so far what comes to mind what i want out of an ATV, any suggestions?

 

It sounds like you are looking for a 4x4 automatic sport model. There are 4 out there from the main manufacturers. There's the Polaris Scrambler 500. Carburated, rear chain drive, good speed, McPherson front suspension. The Yamaha Wolverine 450. Carburated, gear box rear solid axle, dual A-arm front. And the Can-Am Renegade 500 and 800. Fuel injected, IRS rear, A-arm front. In terms of speed from fastest to slowest stock it goes; Renegade 800, Renegade 500, Scrambler 500, Wolverine 450. Best ground clearance is the Renegade, worst is the Scrambler. Most expensive is the Renegade 800, then the Renegade 500, and the Scrambler and Wolverine are the same price. I can't say what is perfect for you. I can say that with any of these machines you should know how to ride and take a safety course if you haven't already. The Renegade 800 is a beast and requires a lot of attention to ride. The powerful engine tends to make the front end light. The 500 is better in the respect it doesn't lift the front end up as much.

 

Can't beat that reply.

 

Looks like its the Renegade 800 then thanx

 

Have you ridden alot, lilTitan? If you haven't I would be very careful on the Renegade 800. It's got an almost unbelievable amount of power. I've read many reviews where the test riders liked the 500 better because it handles better. The 800 tends to make the front end light when you are on the throttle. Imagine going into a corner, hitting the throttle to power slide, and having the quad go straight forward because the power lifts the front end. That's the kind of thing I'm asking about and cautioning about.

 

Yeah if you want to go the Renegade 800 route you best have, in order, alot of riding experience and agood chunk of change. (The MSRP of a new 800 is 9 or 10 grand).

The 800 is not a machine to learn to ride on. Heck neither is the 500, the Wolverine or the Scrambler.
