Default Best ATV for my wife, help....

My wife's weight is 140 lbs. 5' tall. She wants an automatic(she don't like changing gears). What would yall suggest? She was looking at the breeze, would that be to small? Want to get something that will last and have plenty of power for her. She won't be going in hardly any mud.

Thanks for any help

Sounds like the Kodiak 400 2x4 would be you best bet. I think it would not take he long before she got tired of a low powered, low GC, and stiff ride the Breeze would give her.

Forgot about the new Bruin. Heck for $3999 for a auto 2x4 you can't go wrong. I believe it's only about a $1000 more then the Breeze, but you get 3 times the machine.

I got the Breeze, my wife liked it for awhile but then it is gutless if you ever want to climb anything. Then there is the Z250 which has gears but NO clutch and goes just about anywhere. Now she has the Z400 which she likes allot now. I would have her try them all out BEFORE you buy.

Have fun deciding.

I got my wife a new Honda 250EX. She loves it. It is a nice bike just for putting around on to.

Hey, I checked out your pics, and I just gotta know---do you get to pull the trigger on that 50?

Thank you for your service to our country. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]
