The grizzly is a good machine if you really want a machine so large.Add a winch,good tires and some heated grips,and you are good to go.

The Grizz with power steering is the best handling quad I've ever ridden,I'd be surprised if it's not the best handling period!!!!
Motor is pretty good too with the EFI.

Got the bike last week! Beautiful machine and Camo as a color scheme. The power steering is amazing, whether in 2 wheel, 4X4 or with the differential lock engaged the Grizzly is amazing. My brother in law made me up a plow (it's snowing as i type). and i have a few add ons to add on....
