I figured this is the place for this question. So I’ve been looking for a utility-currently just have a 250 honda ex. I haven’t had the chance to ride many other than my friends Polaris 570eps.
After much much research the new Grizzly was on the top of the list. A dealer had an open house and I was able to ride it but only for 10 minutes. I like everything about the ’16 fit/finish and looks. I was wanting to ride it and confirm this is the one. When going around some corners (and this was only a dealer track) it seemed to have a some body roll. I don’t know if it was the perceived higher center of gravity but it did feel a little tippy for lack of a better word.
Looking at the forum there are post about tippyness but that seems to be pre 2014. My friend with the popo said the same thing. I rode his after and I didn’t have that same tippy feeling.
Question–Maybe its something to get used to? We go on tighter trails at speed and I’m worried about that same feeling in that situation.
Any comments would be appreciated. I don’t want to throw down that kind of $$ with this question in my mind.
These are the wheels and tires off my 2015 Sportsman 570. They have exactly 122 easy miles on them. Mostly hard-pack wet trails, only time they’ve seen concrete is from the garage to the trailer in the driveway. They are still in perfect condition and the wheels have no dents or scrapes. If you want more pics, PM me your number and I’ll text you all you want.

Hey guys I’m going to stay at Wild Willy’s atv resort it’s my first time going to the Hatfield & McCoy trails and we are planning on riding 3 trail systems that are close by..Indian Ridge , Pocahontas & Pinnacle creek. Does anyone have any suggestions on food , trails , do’s and don’ts around there. Can’t find much info on this resort has anyone stayed there…thanks.
Bought a 95′ (I think) Xplorer 400 and the shifter wiggles around and won’t shift the transmission at all. It won’t move the two rods going to the transmission any, doesn’t even wiggle em, so are parts available for that or is there a common part to wear out or deteriorate or break in there or anything else you can lead me too?
So I picked up this 400, ended up costing me a 28 pack of Budwieser ($41 here in Canada, insane) off my uncle. Needs some work but the price was right. Where is the VIN on this thing? I looked on the frame by the shifter and see a spot that looked like a tag used to be on there but it’s missing. But then I noticed some numbers on the plastic thing ontop the air box. Looks like it’s got a serial number and a date on it. This the VIN and build date? If so its a ’95. I know it started and ran good last year but it’s been sitting since because the shifter is all messed up.
So that leads me to my second question, the shifter wiggles around and won’t shift the transmission at all. It won’t move the two rods going to the transmission at all, so are parts available for that or is there a common part to wear out or deteriorate or break in there or anything else you can lead me too?
Needs tires and a few other things but I’m going to get it going and run if for a while before I start spending big money. If it doesn’t pan out I’m sure I can pawn it off and not loose any money on it. Anything else I should know about this thing?
