Are the black wheels on the camo Griz 660 the same aluminum wheels painted or anodized in black? Or are they just a black steel wheel?
I like the green griz for hunting and hiding my quad, but the shiny wheels defeat the purpose. (Camo apparently isn't availble in Canada. Anyone know this for sure?).
Anyone know if the black wheels could be ordered on the green griz in Canada?

I'll Buy you a Cammo here in the US, if you buy me the Blue Grizz from up there!!!!

I love that BLUE!!!!
If you ask me that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. Why would they sell one here, but not there??? Anyone know if I can get a Blue Grizz here in the US???

Sounds like a good idea if it wasn't for the long distance between us. Besides, I think the dollar exchange would kill me.

I don't don't know what's up with the colour restrictions. If I can personally order and ship any US product across the border, why can't a Yamaha dealer order cross-border from it's own manufacturing plant????
What happened to free trade?

I did hear a rumour that the blue machines in Canada are made to match the Team Yamaha racing colours. I don't follow racing so I don't know much about this, or even why Canada's racers would have different colours.

Thanks for the offer, curtis72. I'm still "ATV shopping" and haven't bought my Grizz (yet?). It may not be till next summer, but I'll keep you in mind. If I can't get the camo Grizz here in Canada, it would be nice to get the green and pick up the black wheels.
