RE: 4 wheeler help
Mach, that' s the ATV I' d like to have when I wear out my Big Bear.
the guy that has the ATV television show done a report on that kodiac the other night. he spoke perty highly of it. he should know since trying out and doing reports on ATV' s is what he does. the price was $6,100 i beleive. that' s about $500 to $600 cheaper than the other two he tried out that night. I think one was the Honda 500 and the bombardia(sp) 500. you could probly get it for less than $6,000 at your local yamaha dealer.

The 350 to 500 size is ideal for a hunting quad.A 350 will haul any deer there is and a 500 will drag or haul a moose or an elk a little easier than a smaller machine.

RE: 4 wheeler help
I got a deal on a new 03' Kodiak about a 2 months ago. Unfortunately I' ve only had time to put on about 3 hours so far. It was parked out in the rain last weekend while camping/hunting which may have caused this. It needed a little persuasion getting it into gear H or R. Once warm the problem didn' t occur. It only happened one morning. Maybe it was something I did or temp or humidity...? I am still getting used to it. Maybe it need to warm up a little more. I almost bought a Rubicon, if it was offered with 2wd/4wd and a locking front diff I would have bought the Honda solely because of the trans. In my opinion the Honda trans offered on the Rubicon is the best in class. Good luck.
