  • Great ATV at a fair price
    By snakedriver (I am an Owner) on Jun 22, 2011

    Have owned this atv for over 5 years and have never had an issue outside of general maint.

    For as heavy as it is it has plenty of torque and will do over 50MPH with my big butt on it. (220lbs)Would buy it again in a heart beat.
