They also have a Kodiak. I am looking at either the new Grizzly 700 that just came out or a polaris sportsman 800. I really like the size of the sportsman better than the yamaha(the seat especially since I am 6'7"). It is MUCH bigger than the yamaha & my son could fit on there much more comfortably riding w/ me. Since I have experience with the yamahas I know they are really reliable & I haven't heard a lot of good things about the polaris sportsman first hand. There is a group of guys that ride near my house & one had very bad luck w/ an '05 sportsman that the dealership finally ended up buying back from him for what he paid for it. The group told me that there is much more maintenance on a polaris than any of the other major brands that have been around.

That said, for those of yall that have or have had polaris sportsman?s how would you rate them? I dont want to sacrifice quality for size of the seat or spend that much $$$ on something that will just break down on me.

Thanks

Polaris is a work horse!!...We Have a 700 and 800 left.....WON'T OWN Anything Else!!!...Had a 500 and two 600's also.

I sold the (2002) 500 to a friend and it just turned 3,000 miles, is ready for a set of tires, and it used 1 belt. It's still running strong and he has NO desire to get rid of or upgrade any time soon!

I've had Polaris since 2001.....moved tons of snow, and wood, and rode--in comfort--miles of trails, and have NEVER been let down by the machine!
