One of the guys I ride with has a 07 wolverine 450. He changed out cluch wieghts and added an hmf pipe and beats even our other buddy with a renegade 500 (stock) for about the first 1/4 mile but the gade will catch and beat him after that. It's a nice little half breed, but it's not a powerful quad. Stock wolvy 450 will be faster then a grizz 450 due to being a little lighter and should hit 55mph as long as you don't weigh in 300#s but to get real grunt in the bottom end you will need clutch work.

I got the 450 cause the 660 and 700 felt too big for me. Not power wise but actual size of the quad. I'm only 5' 10" and wiegh on a good day 180 #s. The 550 is a 700 with a smaller engine so it is a full size quad. The wolverine 450 is smaller then the 550 and has the same engine as my grizz 450 but wieghs less. I was going to buy a wolvy 450 but wanted or should I say needed the utility side of the grizz 450 more. I never liked suzucki's and the only other quad I have ridden and liked was a renegade 500 but I only liked it because of the engine. I would love to throw that rotax in my 450.
