Ok thanks guys! I'm going to look around for some Yamaha 660 or 700s! Will my Honda rims fit a Yamaha?
The P5/P7 bolt pattern is the same but the offsets are a little different, I tried the stock P5 rims on the Kodiak but the wheel hit the rear brake disc.

I'm talking about rims off my 06 Rubicon that I'm keeping?
That's a solid rear axle if I remember correctly...... the rear back spacing will be wrong for a IRS Grizzly, they'll fit but will stick out quite far.

I have a 2007 grizzley 660 and they only thing I have ever changed, besides oil and brakes. is the front cv axles (I just changed them last week). It's been a great machine.

I have an '09 550 EPS with IRS camo with 1300 miles on it that needs cleaned up a little to be sold since I got my P1k3. Located in PA if you're interested.

From my understanding the Yamahas don't have a manual mode like my Rubicon? I think now its between a honda rancher or Rubicon and Yamaha grizzly! I really want a foot shift but I can live without it lol

I'd buy a yamaha for sure. Couple friends have them. I've run them and worked on them. If I had to get rid of my Pioneer I'd be buying a base model 850 two seat wolverine. Everything you need, nothing you don't. 10 year belt warranty.

If looking for a quad, don't overlook the Kodiak. Pretty much the same thing as a grizzly. Little cheaper. Slightly geared more towards the Utility/work side of things but I don't think there's a lot of difference.
