Gotta pay to play.....

And once you've tried one it's pretty easy to justify in your head if you have the scratch to do it.

Ask me how I know.......(grin)

I do play, and I do pay. But I'm not paying that much for a can am. I might for a Yamaha though.

I think I would go with the Yamaha 450 with power steering if you don't want a big machine, My 450 is 6 years old and the only problem I have had is with a rear brake line broke. My Daughters 450 is the same age, been rolled and ridden hard and never one problem. I'll tell you one thing though, I'd never have one without a winch.

If I bought a utility atv today, it would be a Yamaha Grizz 450 w/power steering.

I have a good utility atv now in the Foreman 450s 4x4. I'd like something for trail riding. For that I'd think more along the lines of sport quad type rigs.

Would be tough to go wrong there. I've a couple kodiak 450's kicking around, one with 10k on it and only a handful of fluid changes for maintenance. Still runs like the day it leaped out of the crate.

Same can't be said for the Honda in the yard.

I bought a 450 Grizzly with EPS one week ago today. It's my first quad, and so I can't really give an informative review.

One thing I can say, though, is that my skinny nine-year old daughter rode it in the yard a few times with me walking beside her the whole time. With the EPS, she has no trouble whatsoever steering at slow speed around the yard.

I agree the low pulls like a bastid.Even with the long lead it pulled this tiny guy through timber slash right to the tailgate.Only got hung up once and that was because of the long lead.

450 grizz is a nice quad for sure but when I priced em out, the foreman with power steering was cheaper than the grizz without. With eps the foreman was a grand cheaper
