Yamaha kodiak 700 (2019)

[Hamish1888]

Any good on steep side lying ground?

 

[west coast angus]

Yes very good, get it bought

 

[Hamish1888]

That's the answer I was hoping for! Did hear that they were not as stable on steep hill ground compared to Honda/suzuki 500
Cheers

That's a load of rubbish, I have nothing but steep hill ground, I have a yamaha kodiak 450 and a grizzly 700, and had the 700 kodiak on demo, they pee all over the Hondas they replaced. They are seriously good bikes on the hill

They are even better if you get them lowered by 3 inches, much more stable across slopes.

Have run a can am 6x6 with duels for 4 years for hill fencing, a lot of jobs on the now but can't justify another 6x6 just need the best second hand quad bike for the hill I can get, could put duels on it but another £1000 yamaha has 1200hrs on a lot for 2 year old but been well serviced anything I should look out for?

Can't say for that amount of hours, but mine are 2 year old and never had a spanner on them, apart from the the bolts where the hitch bolts on to the frame comming loose,

If you don't mind me asking, how much? You might be better off getting new, good finance deals, 2 years warranty and back up, peace of mind.

Put wide wheels on and they are as stable as any bike. We have a Kodak but did see a Kodak sat next to a grizzly at a show and the grizzly was noticeably taller so the Kodak would be a better bet for hill ground I would think.

£5600 + vat 6 month warranty form a good dealer, had it out on demo today preformed well! Need a bike ASAP and not a lot ready to go so could be my best option??

Where's that pic taken, looks familiar?

That sounds a fair price, did you find out how much more for a new one? Just out of interest, think I will trade mine in after lambing.

 

[Hamish1888]

Looking on to loch lomond garelochhead to the otherside good hill ground about to be planted. never got a price for a new one but if your thinking of trading in I would get it ordered soon there's going to be a fair waiting list for them

I priced one last week Kodiak 700 £8500 and would have to wait till June if I remember right, but no guarantee

Who is it you deal with robbs or Atv services

 

[Hamish1888]

Atv services good to deal with, but last can am 6x6 came from rattray Atv bit cheaper.
Going to try a 1 year old suzuki 500 similar money but a lot less hrs any opinions welcome

 

[Tony1989]

The Suzuki is an excellent bike, you won’t be disappointed!
