Hey guys, Im looking at buying a big bear or kodiak 400 4x4. I have a 2001 Arctic cat 300 4x4 but I have had nothing but problems with it so I want to try a different make. Any sort of advise on these quads would be very very helpful. Thanks alot.

 

if u want a auto go with the kodiak 400 or 450??.. if you want tons of low end power go with the big bear. if you want sumthing that everybody can ride get the kodiak.

 

Get the bear, the kodiak 400 aint got low-range

 

hey electric shift i posted this exact kodiak vs big bear and you said KODIAK u change your answer?

 

busted, ive never ridden the kodiak but the big bear is a fantastic work horse and hits the trails nice, love the springs.. if you think youll really need a hard core 4x4 go 450 bc of diff lock. but your gunna pay for it, if you dont mind shiftin, which is easy bc its "clutchless" youll like the big bear and its bargain.

 

I will be using it for mostly trail riding. Ill use to to go hunting and a bit of mudding also. Is the Kodiak 400 good in mud seeing that it doesnt have a low gear? Thanks
