Just got a 24 grizzly 700 last week and the wife got a 24 kodiak 700. We love em both and r having a blast. Cant wait to get a trailer and hit trails around our state
Nice, I love the ride and it’s very capable and Yamaha reliability was a big aspect of why I grabbed it, so definitely well worth paying the extra money for a Yamaha
I can't afford a new bike, so last week I bought my 2008 Grizzly 700 with EPS and I absolutely love it. Huge upgrade over my KingQuad. I don't think I'll be turning back.
Just found this post. I have a 6’5” box on my 2017 F-150. It has a really nice mid rise cap. I would remove the cap if I thought I could carry my Grizzly with the tailgate up. How close are you to the back window and what length is your truck box. Reply and I will subscribe to your channel. Thanks in advance.
Well, I dont have the F150 anymore, but I will say that with the 2023 grizzly xtr with the tires (as stock and shown), I had a 1/2" piece of rubber up front to ensure it didnt come even close to back window, it had like 1-2 inches clearance. It was a 6.5 foot bed on the F150, 2018 Lariat 4x4 crew cab. The tailgate clicked and locked, so was JUST big enough for the ATV. All stock. Bumper, winch, etc.
If you haven't tried out a Sportsman 850 I'd recommend riding one. It is definitely the smoothest riding atv ever, but it feels huge and feels not as nimble to me. Grizzly is a good mix, it's pretty nimble, rides good too. Grizzly and outlanders are in my opinion the best mix of ride, power, and reliability. Sportsman goes through more suspension parts and bushings due to how crazy smooth they are.
Yes, I love it. Hoping to get up to Maine and NH for some trail riding and exploring up there. She did great in the cold up at Lake George, episode coming soon!
I have friends who love their CFMoto ATVs and CanAM atvs, only ever heard of people complaining about Polaris ATV fit and finish, so I guess do your research and just keep up on maintenance whichever you do get. I love the Yamaha quality.
@@cajunoneforchrist4545 I have both a 2020 Rubicon 520 and a '23 Grizzly. The grizzly is much smoother to ride. Less engine vibration and the suspension is much better. Of course the power is night and day difference too. The Rubicon only stands out for being much quieter and the gear drive is better overall for working. For instance if someones atv broke down 2 hours down the trail and I had to tow it back I would feel more comfortable using the rubicon and sticking it in low. If I was going on a trail that had a lot of water crossings I would feel more comfortable on the rubicon because no belt to get wet. It also uses slightly less gas and the rubicon is less weight if you were to roll it on you.. Overall though assuming you aren't plagued with bad luck the grizzly is more comfortable and better overall.

Love my grizzly, they are bulletproof
Love these review videos, nice job
Glad you like them!

After my lemonated Polaris Xplorer, I'm likely not going back to Polaris. I like my Grizzly 700
What size truck bed is that? The Grizzly fits great
its a 2018 F150 Crewcab with the 6.5 foot bed. She fits perfectly.
Awesome
Thank you!
Did you have a link in a video of the cell phone holder you use? If so can you repost the link?
This is the first one I use, locks and charges...amzn.to/3SkxWaO
this second one I use in conjunction with a handlebar mount: amzn.to/49iwtJ1
Combined with this: amzn.to/48aFZgs (I have 2 mounts for 2 phones on the grizzly)
Thanks for the info!
Is that a new grizzly?
Yes 2023 model
@@TheBeatenTrail I like it
Does it run really hot? Had any problems with it?
Doesn't run hot IMO, had it up in 10 degree weather and she started right up. In the summer she runs great, never had any issues.@@lisaweaver7992
What quad would you have purchased if you didn't buy the Grizzly?
I probably would’ve went with a Canam. I just had bad luck with Polaris units in the past.
Are you still liking your Grizzly??
Yes, I love it. Hoping to get up to Maine and NH for some trail riding and exploring up there. She did great in the cold up at Lake George, episode coming soon!
@@TheBeatenTrail I think I'm going to buy one. I just see too many videos on Can-Am
that aren't good.

@@TheBeatenTrail Of buy a Honda Rubicon if it was 250 more ceces
