Personally I would opt for the Grizzly/Kodiak 450 myself over the 350. Either way the are a good utility ATV.
I'm not sure if the 350 has a front diff lock but if it doesn't then definitely get the 450.
The automatic is very reliable and has it's definite pros, but I'm still a fan of manual shifting.
Make sure the machine has a winch.
The dealer and manual will describe the break-in procedure.

That all said I do like my Kodiak 450 Ultramatic.

I think you would be very happy with the 350(even though I prefer the power of the 450 myself, but I am over 200 lbs and 6'1")

as far as break in constantly vary the rpms and power, and just break it in like you will ride it afterwards.

The 350 does have the DIFF lock just no low range.... and no radiator to worry about getting clogged!

Good Starter quad for that Price!! Geez.. But how are you getting such a good price... and you mention SHIPPING to your House.. don't get scammed man! Please!!


That quad MSRP's for $5600 which if you had to compare that to the GRizz 450.. for $6300 you ARE better off with the Liquid cooling and Lo-Range...

What a price! My neighbor just bought the SRA 350 for $4200 out the door (minus taxes for farm use) and we thought that was good!.

a local dealer is going out of business and he is trying to break even. he bought his ATV stocks out pure cash out of his pocket to make more profit from them. But instead he broke his self and can not sell them fast enough to keep the business open. But on the good side he still has his ATV shop open and it will not be shutting down anytime soon.

I just had to go and double a double check, the standard grizzly 350 does not come with a front diff lock, but the IRS model does. Looks like Im going to be changing out a few parts on my 06 bruin 350 so I can have a locking front diff now.

As far as the quad goes, its a nice machine. Not as much power as I would like, but it still gets the job done. Definitely needs a clutch kit, because it has no bottom end power. That price is awesome though, I paid $4100 for my bruin 350 and I thought that was a good deal.
