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!

Some people right sports and others utilities, we do a lot of the riding in trails

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".

      Which ATV hold better value as used
      By prdicon
      I was looking to buy a new ATV. 
      I was debating between Polaris sportsman 450 and Honda rancher.
      Polaris it a bit cheaper.
      But can you tell me which one will have more demand on the used market? Which one will keep it's value better?
       
      Let's say 3-5 years from now.

      An argument that never gets old!!! 2 Stroke vs 4 Stroke
      By DemonQuad666
      I'm sure this has been tossed around on here numerous times but with the unveiling of the new KTM fuel injected 2 stroke. Could this be the first step in a come back for my beloved double ding ding machines. Ok lets hear it. Why do you like one or the other??? Myself, I always felt it was the throttle control and Powerband response with the 2 strokes. I know this sounds weird but on a 4 stroke, no matter size or model. I always felt like i was along for the ride instead of in control. I've spent hours on my buds 400EX, even took a new 450r for a spin. before they discontinued them. Blasters, Banshees, and a number of 125's, 250's and even one late 80's Honda XR250R... Results all the same. For me its a comfort and control that im used to with the 2 strokes.... and i love the smell of bean oil... So lets hear it. Im sick of arguing with same two people at work on this issue.
