i just wanted to thank everyone for letting me spend some time on this site and learn about the atvs. i purchased a 1985 kodiak 400 4x4. it is in great shape with 700 miles.has winch good tires and had a service on it. paid 2250.. i do have a ?. how much air presure do you run in the tires. and where can i get a gauge that shows psi that low ? i guess one other ? would be any advise on best place to get an ownwers manual. thanks again for the education.

 

My tires call for 3 1/2 psi front and back. I run 5 psi in front tires and 6 psi in back tires. It makes for easier steering and I have been told that it is better protection against flats. You should be able to pick up a gauge at any dealer. lol

 

I have an '03 Kodiak 400 4x4 and my manual says to fill to 4 psi front and rear. Although on this one I go with nubbin and usually fill up to 5 psi on both of them.
Glad that you like your new ATV

 

Hi saaben, it's me again. My dealer recommended 5 lbs both front and back, but I ride double with my wife most of the time so I put a extra pound in the back because of the extra weight. I hope this helps. lol

 

Check the little tool kit for the low pressure tire gauge if you have one.

 

on my sportsman the manual says to put 7psi in the front and back which is what i do. so i think u should put what the pressure on the sidewall of the tire says because the manufaturer knows how much u should put in.
