Hopefully Yamaha will put a V-twin in one of their Grizzlys in the future

Kinda what I was thinking, though the 700 single is a pretty peppy engine. At least introduce a sportier side by side like the rzr or maverick with a big v twin in it. The rhino was the pioneer of the side by side craze but Yamaha hasn't even made an attempt to create a pure performance side by side. The Viking is fine, but its much more utility minded.

I'm sure they'll do something by the year 2016 or 2017, to add a V-twin in their lineup. I think the Grizzly's would be the perfect 4wheeler if so.

I'm thinking about getting the STI MudTrac tires now. Looks great and affordable

Nice! I've been looking at getting 28" Zillas on 14" wheels for my Outty. Was also thinking of doing a radiator relocation kit and snorkels. Just don't want to get stuck out there on the trails if I have the urge to hit a big mud hole haha

Well, this Summer I'm gonna get a new four-wheeler or side by side. Can't decide on which one I want. I got two currently '02 Honda Foreman 450ES & an '04 Honda Rancher 350. They have been great, very durable and hasn't had a problem out of 'em, except when I get stuck in the mud! haha.

 

So, my plans are to get a Yamaha Grizzly 700 or a Honda Rincon 700. Which one would be more fun? The Grizzly would be more enjoyable, imo. Greater acceleration, more speed, better 4wd and looks aggressive. The Rincon would be more durable, less problems probably, and more of a controlled bike.

 

Thought about getting an Kawasaki Brute Force or a Suzuki King Quad, but they just don't appeal to me. Brute Force & Can-am have V-Twins, but just not really interested in them.

So far I prefer Yamaha the most.

 

Then there is the market thats coming along pretty good is the side by side.

Only one thats really dominating the market right now is the Polaris RZR's,

If I do get one of those, I like the RZR 800.

 

What do you guys have or what to perfer?

Why you like it & not like about it.

Thanks.

 

 

 

What kind of riding do you do? As nice as they are, a side x side just can't do everything an ATV can. Especially on the tighter, technical trails and things like that. Side x sides are nice for open areas and dunes, but for tight trials or rocky, rutted out areas, an ATV wins hands down.

Scrolled thru this thread and noticed nobody really talked about the Polaris Ranger. Ive got a 2014 800 and it's a pure workhorse. went riding with a bunch of buddys who have rzrs and I spent the day pulling them out and then playing in the holes they were getting stuck in. If you can tell me how to post a picture i'll show it to you. If I click the image link it asks me for a url???

50 miles of riding on Saturday, had a great day! We went on a lot of black trails (most difficult). I can't wait to install my tires.

I say a lot of things have been replaced. I wouldn't pay no more than $1,000 at most with all those miles, imo.
