rhino questions

so we have been tossing around the idea of picking up a sxs for our camp. it will be used haul firewood, and deer, pull around our 5×7 trailer, and to cruise around on trails for fun. its not necessary that it has a ton of power, just not underpowered. stock tires, although whenever my 26" bighorns on my grizz get worn(aka never), they may end up on the rhino.

i see that basically i have 3 options. 450, 660, and 700. i think the 450 is too underpowered, but wouldnt pass one up for a good price. so between the 660 and the 700, are there any big reasons for one vs the other?

i have my old sheave from my 700. i heard that swapping those into rhinos make for some better power..

Springtime in the Rockies

12 inches of snow fell yesterday and last night. This is wet, heavy crap. I had fun shoveling the deck and patio….not!:cussing:

Dirt Wheels

I saw an ad for "Dirt Wheels" magazine.

Is is a good ATV magazine or just a bunch of ads with no substance? If that one isn’t any good are there any good utility ATV magazines out there worth spending money on?

Check Those New Lamps

My 04 Grizzly burned out a headlight so I thought this is a good time to replace both with high output lamps. My Yamaha dealer had some China bulbs at $18.00 each so I picked up two. On installation I found one was right but the other had the high and low reversed. After careful inspection to make sure I hadn’t installed it upside down, I returned it, got another but found that one also reversed. I didn’t want the dealer to think I was nuts so I hooked up a 6 volt battery with enough amps to just light the elements and went back with the bad bulb and the original Yamaha bulb for a show and tell.
Not only were the bulbs I bought reversed but all of his new stock were also reversed! I have no idea how many he sold before I pointed this out but there has got to be thousands of these Chinese bulbs out there at stores.
I went home with Yamaha bulbs, they are much better quality and worked just prefect.

450 Wont’ Start in P but will in N

I have a 2014 Grizzly 450 4×4 (no eps). I can start it, no problem in N but can’t start in P. The engine doesn’t even turn over (nothing happens when it’s in P and I press the start). I swear it used to start in P, but now I’m not even sure. Any ideas? Is this how its supposed to work…if not, any ideas on the problem?
