Finding your Fit: A Guide to Mid-Sive ATV's



So you’re in the market for a new, mid-size ATV. You could:

1. Take a week off from work to test drive everything that’s out there.
2. Pick the one that looks coolest.
3. Or, (best option), check out this article in ATV Rider, which evaluates five
of the industry’s best – Honda Rancher, Suzuki King Quad, Kawasaki Prairie, Yamaha Grizzly, and Polaris Sportsman.

In a Consumer Reports-like test, ATV Rider pushed all five across the Mojave Desert and up the Sierra Nevada mountain range. One conclusion: the smaller ATVs  in the midsize category don’t carry the weight and power of their bigger counterparts. But while you lose some power, you gain in cost savings and greater agility.

The article makes thorough comparisons on a wide range of factors, including engine specs, transmissions, suspension and handling, overall value – and the all-important “fun factor.” Honda and Yamaha win the prize for most fun vehicles, while Grizzly takes the cake for getting hard jobs done.

Which is best for you is of course a very personal choice. But looking at ATV Rider’s ratings before you shop can get you well on your way before you visit us at Petes and ride in the woods.
