Hello! Just picked up my new 02 Grizzly a couple of hours ago and parked it in the garage. I'm going to put the Warn winch on tomorrow and take it for a spin. It is green with a 2000# warn winch and 3 year extended warranty. I paid $7550 out the door for it. Considering we pay 4.5% sales tax I guess that isn't too bad [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Just saying hi for the first time.

Congratulations!!!!!!

I too recently purchased an 02 Grizz and am waiting for my first ride. Maybe tomorrow! My kids have ridden it around the yard and according to them, It's awsome! Hope your trouble free and safe riding.

Congrats! And welcome to the Big Bear Club. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] You'll enjoy the heck of your new Grizz, I know that I am amazed everytime I get on my grizzly. It is an impressive quad, and in my most humble & honest opinion, the king of the heap right now.

Wow! Just took it around the farm and it is nice! I'm going to let it warm up outside before I ride again today. I must be getting old because my hands were hurting from it being 36 degrees out hahahaha. I'm 24 btw.

Don't feel bad, I'm 35, and had to succomb to hot grips and thumb warmers. They really do make a difference in the quality of your cold weather riding. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I've been wanting to ask this without offending any grizzly 600 owners, so this thread looks like a good place to hide my question.
Does the 660 sound wound out when riding it? The only 600 I've ridden a couple of different times left me looking for ear plugs. It was loud from the motor and sounded like I was in low, but when I checked I was in high. Does the 660 carry these traits?

The guy who owns the 600 says he likes yamaha, but will never own another grizzly due to the noise. I try to assure him the 660 is a different machine, but being 65 he's kindof set in his ways. BTW he has 5800 miles on his 99 grizzly. With very few repairs.

I know y'all might say the high reving and noise is an automatic thing, but I assure you my prarie and my buddies 500 magnum don't rev out early like that. Thanks in advance.

I've got the 660, and I also had a rancher. I dont think the 660 sounds wound-out at all.I love the grizz, but I want more power. (I just like massive power) I'm going to pipe and jet it, but which one?????

I traded my 2000 600 grizzly in on a 660 and the 660 is way quieter especially at low speeds. The 660 and 600 are totally different machines if he is looking for a new one tell him to go to a dealer to test ride one and he will be impressed.
