2 questions: why yamaha's most popular and ...
Depending on your size, if you choose to go with a yamaha, you might want to go with the kodiak450 over the grizzly660. The reason why I say this, is my dad initially went with the grizzly. Nice and big, plenty of power, and rides like a cadilac. That being said however, he was always sore the day after a ride because of it's large size. He would have to use more muscles more of the time, to control it on the tight trails and such. He has since down-graded to a kodiak 450. Now he can ride days at a time, and rarely if ever gets sore anymore... He LOVES it. He feels more in control, especially with hill climbs and such. He's 60 btw...
I'm more of a kodiak or grizzly type of guy because of the suspension. It's a little more beefy than the cheaper 4x4 quads... the independent rear suspension is a must. The differential lock works great, and button positions are ideal. I've ridden with a lot of guys that have the honda/Kawi/suzi equivalent, and even they have a lot of respect for the grizz and kodiak. Whatever brand you choose, be sure to go with the IDS, and the diff. lock, and you really can't go wrong. JMHO....
