Great 4x4 ATV
By Bill (I am an Owner) on Jan 31, 2009This is hands down the best intro to the 4x4 atv crowd. I have owned yamaha grizzly's and kawasaki 4x4's and this atv comes with it all. The Sportsman 300 has push button true AWD while the others use limited slip. It has an electric start with back-up pull coil. Front and rear independent suspension. ... It also has plenty of storage under the front end. I would highly recommend this atv at a low price of around 4900 dollars.
