Calling all ATV riders.

Arctic cat 700 Diesel 4x4 automatic.

I ride 60 mile runs all the time through some tough trails, and I can honestly say polaris'es don't hold up. For every yamaha grizzly or brute force pulled over, there are like 5-10 polaris-es. I would go yamaha grizzly or kawi brute force, those things are amazing 4x4's. And when I say break down, I dont mean a flat; I mean like over heating, steeering coloumns busted off (the guy was holding his steering wheel and walking around with it), more overheating, and axles snapped completely off, where we literally flipped the quad on it's side and ratchet-strapped it back together so he could ride off the trail. Polaris for the loss. This guy we ride with is huge, and rides his brute like an animal, and it has 4000 hard and painful miles on it and still runs strong lol. I would definetly go with one of those 2.

Thanks for the help you guys, I was looking into the grizzly and brute forces. I originally went to Honda's website but noticed they have a small selection of automatics in the engine size we are looking at.

 

Stick with Honda or Yamaha, Honda makes great utility machines. but at the same time a Grizzly 450 would be great.

by the one in dye's sig

or buy a cheep one and make it look like the one from halo 3

last i heard bombardier bought out CAN-AM and thats why they changed the name. ide go with the yamaha cant tell you much about the utilities but i love my raptor.

I have read it somewhere, I believe it was their original name back in the day when they made dirt bikes if i'm not mistaken.

It was changed to Can-Am around the start of the summer? Less than a year ago, and before that it was BRP but only for a few months, i think BRP stood for Bombardier Racing Products.
