Key Features

- Grizzly 450 Automatic

cast aluminum wheels.

system lightens steering for superior
comfort and terrainability.

ATVs. An automatic centrifugal clutch

In/Out 4WD feature lets you switch between
2WD, limited-slip 4WD and a fully locked
differential 4WD—all with the
simple push of a button. Override button

full Diff. Lock mode.

long-travel four-wheel suspension features
double-wishbone suspension front and
rear.

panel boasts a multifunction LCD display
with speedometer, odometer, dual tripmeter,

a multi-disc system running in hydraulic
