It just depends. I think someone who has to haul there ATV somewhere to ride probably wouldn't put near as many miles on it as someone who don't have to haul it somewhere to ride. I don't have to haul mine any where to ride, so I can jump on it at any time and ride where ever I want to and I think that tends to make you ride more. I can hop on it and ride down to the Marathon or just about anywhere local that I would want to go, except right in town. I would probably get a ticket if I rode into town. I ride on trails, mostly. I'm just saying I can pretty much ride anywhere else, except in town. I'm sure I could put 1,000 miles or more a year on mine, easy.

You're exactly right Helmut, thats the same situation I am in, I ride it almost everywhere in the summer even pull the mower trailer with mower on it simply because its easier and better on gas than my truck. LOL I even sometimes ride it to town and in town but Barnes is a VERY VERY small town no law enforcement to speak of ect. So if you aren't raising hell nobody really cares.

When i first got my first 700 Grizzly i put a little over 1600 miles on it in one summer before i sank it in a deep creek and locked the motor up, insurance totalled it out and had to get a new one. its only has 1500 miles on it and its 2 years old don't ride it as much since i have the 450R and race and practice all the time.

I've got a 2004 Grizzly 660 that has 1,700 miles on it, but I didn't buy it new and I haven't had it long.
