Well I popped my cherry and got my first quad today. 4 hours of ripping up the countryside! Rcmp on the end of my street gave me the wave Hello 4 times as I took out my family one at a time for a boot . Boy i love small towns!! I am still looking for a second quad for my sons. 250 to 300 any model ( still liking the cat 4x4). Man are these powerful little machines!!. Pm or thread me

Thanks muddy

Not dissing cats by any means, but they do require alot of fixing. They do have a good appeal with all that ground clearance and all. If all you do is mud that is great. But if you want to run circles around your buds you may want to look at something else. Especially in the water holes!

The kodiak does not have as much GC and would require a 2" lift to hange with the ac's in the mud. A clutch kit would also be needed. I do have most of the mods done, like HMF pipe, carb work, fully snorkled (trackshare members can attest to that).

If you want a machine that goes anywhere, litterally; with the only maint required is an oil change, fluid changes, some grease and a good wash, the kodiak is it. I will give ya a good deal too, got to pay some bills.

Oh and welcome to trackshare. Take a look at my pics. Got first in a mud bog last year.

go to google video and see if you can find my video - one mod only
the video will be quad in deep water or something of the sort.

I've never had my cat leave me hanging, and I ride hard

I broke a rear axle (2003) and drove out no prob
it broke because I was an ass on the gas, & I didn't *****foot out either
