Hey folks I need some advice...

I guess I'm "Lurker" here, but I am a regular to the forum. I've searched on the above bikes but still need some advice.

I am looking for a bigger utility quad to be used for hunting. I primarily will be pulling a trailer w/ decoys into harvested corn fields and possibly hauling deer.

I have located the following:

98 Grizzly w/ 935 miles, good plastic, decent shape, Warn 2500 and 60" plow.
3700.00

99 Foreman 450 w/ 950 miles, good plastic decent shape, Warn 2000.
4400.00

Now the deal is...Money is a HUGE object, I'm going to be able to do this once and will probably have to live w/ my decision for awhile. BUT I'm not going to let 700 bucks keep me out of a better machine.

Can you all please give me some advice on which way to go? I appreiciate all of your time and look forward to the responses.

Thanks,

Jeff

 

You're not going to go wrong with either machine. Those are pretty good prices considering all the extras, either of those would be about $1K more in my area. The Yamaha will have more power, but the Honda may have smoother controls and be slightly easier to operate. I know my Dad loves his 99 Grizzly simply because it has so much power, he has used it to pull out his Ford 8N tractor when it got stuck in the mud!

 

Just a quick question...am I out of line with this price? I live in close to the Iowa border in Minnesota, I am asking $4500 firm for a 2000 Suzuki LTF-500 4x4 manual shift (with 1060 miles in very good shape) with a 2500lb WARN, rack extenders, fender bag, gas tank saddle bag, 2" receiver hitch, a Rubbermaid pull behind trailer with atv tires.
Thanks
