wildthing Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 guys...I am going to buy a 2004 Yamaha Grizzly for $3500. It has 168 total hours on it, less than 700 miles. I think this is a good buy. What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coles Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 absolutely. i hope you rode it and checked out everything for yourself first. you wont regret it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildthing Posted May 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 Coles...I was hoping you'd reply cause you seem like a Yamaha guy. The bike is in pretty good shape. I could have rode, but didn't becasue the guy lives in the city...no where to ride. I started up and looked over. I'll probably put some money into it cause the guy did ride it (though not much). I am going to put new Realtree Hardwoods plastics on it. (red right now). And I ordered new rack for the front. Might add some new rims and tires. But is comes with a wench (plus in my book) already installed on front. I feel overall, it is a good bike. With some money into it, it could be a great bike...exactly what I want.

wildthing Posted May 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Coles...I bought the quad! It is real nice for the money I paid. It has a 2500lb winch on the front too. Rode a little last night, but was getting dark by the time I got home. Gonna order some Realtree Hardwoods plastics to put on it as some point. Also...I thought it has 169 hours...it only has 129 hours!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coles Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 you only rode it for a little while!? thats why they have headlights! lol. but yeah. i have a 2500lb warn winch on the front of mine too. comes in handy alot. i also bought a 54" snow plow for it too. came in handy quite a bit this year. especially when we got 15-20 inches of wet snow a couple weeks ago. my next purchase will be a synthetic winch rope though. my cable now is pretty kinked up. as you saw in the pics i posted mine has blue plastic but its not a big deal since its usually covered in blood!

Shaun_300 Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Congrats on the new bike man! I'm personally a Can-Am guy, but a lot of my family and friends have Yamahas and they love them! They'd definetly be my second choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USAFbowhunter Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 I have an 07 grizzly 400 w/ winch and rims. I bought it brand new and it was blue. I got the camo plastic on e-bay and changed it out myself and it looks great. I don't have any pics with the camo but here is one from the day i brought it home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
