Any one got one of these? Good or bad experience? Is the power steering worth it? Wanting to replace a 17 year old Moto 4.

I have a 2007 and I just bought my wife a 2012, neither one with power steering. Way too much up charge for the riding I do. I got a brand new 2012 for $4,999.00. Good deal, I think so. I love the IRS! I'm 61 years old and the smooth ride is nice. Hoping to take them to the mountains sometime, can't wait!

Good price, only ones I found had power steering. Found a 350 that is a 2010 fot $5500 is the best price I have been given.

Yamaha's are nice. I had a 450 Rhino. Good power. I don't really see a need for power steering on an atv. Maybe I'm wrong. I have a Honda Rancher 420 4x4 and love that machine. Good luck w/ your new purchase

We have a 450 Rhino,my brother-in-law has a 450 Grizzley.We also have a 660 Grizzley.Can't beat Yamaha Atv's or SxS.I don't think you need the PS either but it may be the only way the new ones are offered.Total miles on our three machines is 12,000,no problems just replace tires.:thumbsup:
