I am thinking about buying a Kodiak 400 4x4. It is a 2001 model. Anybody have any trouble out of this model?

 

I've never heard anything bad about them. The only things I've heard or experienced would be the breather coming off and the brakes wearing fast. Other than that its a all around good atv. I wouldn't be afraid to buy one.

 

a kodiak is a great utility quad......

 

SyrupDawg, good machine. I believe this was the last year for the high/low(or was it 02) and it makes a world of differnce over the 2003 and 2004 Kodiak when it comes to towing and crawling thru the mud, I was able to ride a 2000 for hunting season and it was what made me go with the Kodiak450 as the 400's now only have high gear range. I was supprised to hear about the brake wearing issue, my friend has had his for 4 years now and has not had to replace the brakes yet and he rides it on the beack when he goes dipnetting for salmon. Are you getting a good price for it? AlaskaBoy.

 

Alaskaboy,
Yea I am buying it for $2000. The man said he had money trouble and needed to sell it. He said he would give me a 60 day trial period to test it and make sure that nothing is wrong with it.

 

Wow, do you get his dog too? I like it when people have money problems, it always leads to me getting a good deal. 2000 is like stealing it, it's not stolen is it? Or off EBAY?AlaskaBoy.

 

Alaskaboy,
I dont reckon its stolen. Hope not cause that could cause a pile of trouble. I found the ad on Atv trader.
