I've read posts that intimate the new Kodiak and Grizzly are tippy. I've had a "00" Kodiak for about a year, and think of it as nimble rather than tippy. When you're going around a corner at speed or crossing a sidehill all you gotta is lean and you'll keep all 4 tires on the terra firma. If you haven't riden a Kodiak or Grizzly, don't knock em' till you've tried em'. If you want to keep your butt glued to the seat you'd probably be better off with a different ride.

The Kodiak IS tippy. Under most riding conditions (5mph and over) the tippiness isn't an issue. But when you are mudding, rock crawling, etc. and moving at the rock crawling speeds, the tippiness does become an issue. But as the saying goes, you can't have you cake and eat it too. And I'd rather deal with a quad being a little bit tippy at slow speeds in order to have a nimble quad that can handle tight trails at faster speeds.

The Kodiaks are tippy. I have rolled mine twice. Thinking of getting aluminum wheel spacers from High Lifter if they ever get them ready to ship.

Mine doesnt feel the least bit tippy I put the wheels and tires ITP and Blackwaters off my former Wolverine and they sit out about 2 inches wider than stock. My neighbor has stock wheels and his is a little tipsy.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I'VE TIPPED OVER TREES WITH MY GRIZZ!!

Yes the Old and New Grizzly's are tippy, but the Kodiaks are not. The Kodiaks have a lower profile and the engine is canted at 45 degrees. I have a 2001 Kodiak and it feel just as sturdy as my friends 2002 Honda Rancher. I think some peope are getting this machine mixed up with the grizzly because mine is not tippy hardly at all.

My 02 grizz 660 does not feel tippy or (top heavy). You see when I sit on the machine the suspension drops approx 2-3 inches making it about equal to a solid axel machine. If anything my grizzly feels stable! I would like to mention however that doing donuts with the thing may be scary at first as the machine tends to lean into the corners more than a solid axel system. In off camber situations the ind rear takes some getting used to but once you do you will notice that all four tires are consistently on the ground. The grizz may feel tippy due to the hugh fender clearance & the body roll expierenced in the corners.

I have a Y2K & haven't tipped it yet. And I have taken some pretty fast turns. Some of my friends can't believe I haven't flipped it yet, with the way I drive. Basically, you can't stay glued to your seat on fast & sharp turns. This machine is one of the best handling machines I've had yet, for what I want it for. And we have just about any terrain you can think of , here in NB. Any machine takes some getting used to & it's good common sense to get to know how your machine handles in certain conditions & terrain. And that takes practice. Your machine should become a part of you when you drive. Basically, are you driving "it" ....or "it" driving you. Sure, accidents do happen, but you'll find that most of them could have been prevented. Bikes don't flip.....drivers flip them.....

Ive got a 660 grizz and had a rancher, I dont think the grizz is tippy(I think it just feels like it due to the IRS suspension)

My Kokiak almost squashed me and my gf a couple of weekends ago. It is most def. tippy at slow speeds. Gotta love that nimble top end.
