How did you get into Quads?

  • 1 month later...

I got an old Kawasaki Mojave 250 for Christmas when I was 14 or 15.  A couple years later, my Dad bought a Polaris Scrambler 400 and I took it over. From there, I've pretty much been a Polaris guy with another Scrambler, a couple Sportsmans, a RZR4. I'm 36 now with a family of my own I've got another couple Sportsmans and a Trailblazer and an oddball Yamaha Grizzly 660.

FNG here, got into quads after riding 2 wheeled motor driven vehicles since child hood. As I age gracefully, I am realizing that injuries dont heal up as quickly as they used to. Intro 4 wheeled off road machines. UTVs are too expensive and dont make financial sense to me (I have a 4wd truck that I use for off roading also). ATVs are much closer to dirt bikes than a UTV, can be just as challenging to ride as a dirt bike, and I am finding out they are ALMOST as fun as a dirt bike🙂....

Looking forward to many years on an ATV 😎

Nice! Great time for a project! 
What is it, year and any pics ? 

Its Sportsman -19, limited to 60kph as its registered as tractor.

Easy project, got it inspected today. Further to do, it needs new tyres, and like to have winch and snowplow too for a winter.

@JuhaT  looks good too!  what was wrong with it?

It was hit to something on its left front tyre and rolled over maybe. Lower A-arm and steering rod bent, replaced them. And minor scrathes here and there.

Tyres are allmost gone on front, it's have been on road use 100 hour/4000kms.

Sweet, did you get a good deal ? 

Well, I did some watching about other auctions to see the general price level. On this vehicle, cons was bit high kilometers and missing service book. Thought, I believe I made atleast a reasonable deal.

Since this have factory quarantee still 1 year left, if serviced on dealer but not history marked on Polaris system. Just did some search about the previous owner and his local dealer, going to ask if any service history will be available. I allready make oil changes to front and rear diff, but started to think if I can find a service history, it may be wise to do the maintenance by dealer to keep the quarantee running. I have read that Polaris have strictly order to that service have to be done official service to keep quarantee running.

Using paid services is bit odd to me, I have always done (almost) all maintenace to my vehicles by myself... 😉

      Hi, I have been around everything with a motor since I was little, and finally purchased more to get my husband, and kids involved. I have 4 quads I will be searching around for information on. I have two 2002 Suzuki LT80K quads, a 1997 Yamaha Timberwolf 250, and a 1996 Kawasaki Bayou 220. I have had different ones throughout the years, and plan on buying another Yamaha Banshee. I plan on trying to learn more about all of them, so I can customize some of them. I know nothing about them besides how to race them, my dad always took care of the rest, but figured it was time for me to learn.

      does anyone have an owners manual or repair manual i could download ?i got a 2018 king quad 5oo eps special edition can not find either anywhere thanks

      The 2024 ATVs are out and I was just looking at the websites for Yamaha and Suzuki. The Grizzly and King Quad have come a long way, probably two of my favorite quads over the years. Both of these come with power steering but I almost like the King Quad styling a little more. The plastics haven't changed much over the years either, mayeb a little more rugged. The King Quad racks are more like the Polaris plastic racks (I think they were the first to introduce these) but on a closer look, I think its just plastic covers over the traditional metal racks. The Grizzly still keeps the old style metal racks. I like the display/instrument panel on the Grizzly more.

      2024 Yamaha Grizzly

      Thoughts on these two? Here's a pretty good comparison of both 2023 models. I didn't know some of these things like no seat latch on the Grizzly and hydraulic rear brake vs cable. Good video to watch if you are consideting these:
