Hey Quadcrazy,

Well I am new to the atv world, I have been using one of my buddies four wheeler for about 6 months, it is an old one that he never uses. I really enjoy going with my buddies and I am wanting to upgrade to something a little better and newer, I ride a 1970 something Yamaha two wheel drive 250, but I am wanting something for this winter that will rip through the snow and during the rest of the year trail ride.

I am not wanting to spend a lot of money, I am just wondering where I should start looking and for what.

Thanks

Welcome to the site, I take it that you would want a 4x4 over a sport. I would highly recommend a Brute Force of a Grizzly. There are plenty of guys on here with those machines that rave about them. I myself am a sport guy. WWW.Craigslist.com would be a good place to start looking for something used.

Alright thank you. Ya I am not sure if I want a sport or utility.

It doesn't say what state you are in, but what does everyone else there ride? I ride my Raptor year around with some serious snow, but your buddies my prefer utilities instead. let us know!

thedn you have a wide range to choose from.....do you like to go fast or plow thru deep snow/mud,etc.

I guess both lol, but I do a lot of mudding. So I am guessing I would want a utility atv but I really do not want to spend a lot of money.

What do you consider a lot of money. What is your budget. The machines like the Grizzly and the Brute Force are a work horse, they will power through just about anything and they still have a top speed near 70mph. The sport quads, like what I ride. don't do well in mud. We only have about 4" of ground clearance. The 4x4s have I think about 10".

      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.

      Heavy Duty ATV Cover
      By Gwbarm
      Does anyone have a recommendation of a really Heavy Duty ATV cover. I have bought several and they do keep the water off somewhat, but they are very thin and do not contour with the shape very well and water pools up in the rack louvers. I think i may be looking for a heavy canvas one, if anyone has a recommendation it would be greatly appreciated.
