After my Grizzly steering stem stripped out on my last ride and left me stranded. This has been a common occurrence on my Grizzly lately. So after I was towed home by a Honda again I went home and bitched (whined) to the wife about needing to spend more time in the garage to fix the wheeler again. She told me to go get a new wheeler something with a warranty. So I could just take it in to get it fixed. I have very little time anymore to work on my own things.
Not being really impressed with the new Grizzly I started looking at other brands. The Yamaha dealer out of town sells Yamaha, Polaris, and Arctic Cat. I found a 2015 Polaris Sportsman 850 SP for under $8,000. I know Polaris doesn’t have the best reputation, so I was able to get a 6 year extended warranty on it for another $600. Total out the door after all b.s fees where $8,650.00
I’m Keeping the Grizzly for mud riding only and using the Sportsman for trail use…for now.
Traded this in for it. To many bad drivers on the road these days for me to keep it. The dog in the picture stays.
