Low gear speed.
Clicking Kodiak is driving me crazy!!!
The sound is a high pitched click that sounds a lot like a bad CV joint but It’s an SRA so no CV joints.
It happens when starting off and sometimes when doing donuts. It stops once the bike is moving (unless doing donuts and even then rarely) and does not happen until stopped again. It occasionally (but rarely) happens with the engine off by sitting on the bike or grabbing it and scooting it to the side.
I’m about 95% sure the sound is coming from the left wheel.
I can duplicate the clicking by putting the bike in park, grabbing the left side wheel and rolling it back and forth hard. I have not been able to duplicate it by doing this with the right side wheel.
I pulled the left side apart, replaced the brake pads and checked everything and could not find anything obvious. After I put it back together it is a LOT harder to make it click by rocking the wheel.
There is no play in the bearings, no squeaking, grinding or any other indications that the bearings are bad.

Grizzly 450 EPS fuel range
We are heading to Utah on an ATV trip in a month, and I am wondering what other 450 owners get for mileage when riding them in their particular conditions? The carburetor plus the 4.0 gallon tank worry me. My machine has a 5.7 gallon tank and EFI ( a 2014 Arctic Cat 500 ) and I have 80 miles on the tank and its just under half on the gauge. Computing my mileage will be slightly more useful because the first 45 miles on the tank I rode rough terrain, got on the gas good and enjoyed the machine as it was supposed to be!!
I am looking into Rotopax for one or both machines, but don’t know what I need. Here in Minnesota I don’t worry too much about the extra fuel, but trips like our Utah trip make me feel more secure since her fuel tank is so small. I would appreciate any input!!

Custom CV Boot Protectors
After tearing my CV boot in the rear, i wanted to put on some better protectors on my Grizzly 700 (2014). Didn’t want to spend the money, so i decided to make my own. Couldn’t find any dimensions or guidelines on how to do so, So…. I made one up after completing a pair for the rear.
Feel free to add or correct or criticize, I’ve never done any HOW TO’s, so if information is vague, i just didn’t know…. lol
Let me know what yall think
