THe Kodiak 450 is a very nice ride. If you get one you won't be sorry.
they rock very fun to ride and tuff as nails. THere big enough to get you
thru just about any thing and small enough fly down narrow trails.

Ride what you like and ride it hard.

Great machine just bought one for the wife---- it will creep down the steepest hill in 4 wheel without even touching the brakes. I have never been a fan of belt drives but after rideing hers just one time I think I changed my mind --it was a total blast. The stock tires kinda leave a lot to be desired.

I realy liked my kodiak...My only complaint was it was a bit tipsy, and light front end....

Hey 3TV, how does your grizz compare to your kodiak in speed, power, handling, and overall? I am thinking about buying a kodiak or grizzly, but do not know if the grizz is worth the extra cash! Right now I am leaning to the Kodiak 450 because of it small size and price. Thanks for the Help!

3tv, I am about to buy a set of wheels for my '00 kodiak. I am wondering about the offset differences in the front and rear wheels. When you bought your itps, were the front and rear wheel edges equal? If so, which wheels did you get exactly? and out of curiosity, how much do the wheels stick out past the fenders? Thanks
