Here are my questions, how many problems have you had with it and what kinds were they. The other thing is whats the best conditions to ride it in. Thanks.

No problems except one flat tire.
Ride it everywhere from pavement to headlight in deep water.

I had a wolverine for 4 years. Only problem was that I had to have the carburator rebuilt. Got some bad gas, and it gummed things up in the carb really bad. I'd suggest putting an in-line fuel filter on, and that would prevent any carburator problems. Other than that, just change the oil, clean the air filter, and get the valves adjusted whenever you start to hear them.

I have a 95 Wolverine that I purchased new. The only thing I have replaced in 7 years is the battery. Just change the oil, clean the air filter and adjust the valves per the maintenance schedule and you should love this machine. It is light for a 4x4, has ok power, good ground clearance and very good suspension. I would recommend the addition of a full chassis and swingarm skids from PRM as there is little protection from the factory. Also found Maier handguards to be very usefull. I don't think you can go wrong if you are looking for a sport oriented 4-wheel drive.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I have a 1999 Wolverine...I had something go bad in the carb and had to have it replaced...bent an axle....snagged it on barbwire fence...wrapped around tire and bent axle....header pipe and muffler wouldn't stay connected...replaced both....Also, do not try to stop a Grizzly going 45 mph with a wolverine rear rack $2200 it will cost you in repair bills...Also, the air conditioning on my wolverine doesn't work real good in the summer...

You should also know that they can be prone to wheel bearing problems if you do alot of deep water riding. I solved my case with a couple of strategically located grease fittings.
