wolverine 450
i want to buy the new 450 wolverine but have a few questions. is it more for speed or mud? my buddies go mud ridding and they dont really sink the bikes but they ride through some kinda serious stuff. i really like the way it looks and its a yami so im pretty much going to get it. i just want yall to tell me the pros and cons and all the things you love about the bike and what you think would make me buy the grizzly.

Well I can tell you the pros and cons of the stock Wolverine 450 from my point of view and you decide how it suits you...
Cons
Top speed is only around 50 mph (Mine will do 53 now but from what I gather that's rare, 51 is typical)
No diff lock or low range
Less ground clearance than most 4x4's (because of the stock 23" tires)
Pros
Tons of midrange power
Much lighter than other 4x4s
Lots of trail visibility (because of the dropped front and lack of rack)
HILL CLIMBING!
Overall I'm really happy with mine because the Prairie really didn't suit my riding style because of the size. I felt like I was riding a bull dozer every time I got on it. I've had a lot of seat time on several other ATVs and I still like the Wolverine better. My second choice (for the money) would be the Prairie 650 with the solid axle. It has WAY more power than the Wolverine, a diff lock and low range BUT it's 100lbs heavier and not really nimble even though I think it's the most nimble big bore on the market.
