    I used to have that exact same machine, color and all minus the snorkle and exhaust set up. Always went where I wanted and more. Thing was a tank.

    I have a 2000 model Big Bear(the newer body style) with 25" MudLites I bought for $900. Its a pretty nice fourwheeler and runs great. I dont do a lot of water riding(none deep like you guys. lol), and its my first yamaha, but I do like it pretty well. Hard to beat for the money anyways. Glad to see some guys out having fun on $1000 machines. Its nice to have the new stuff sometimes, but if you cant afford it (or dont want to), then these older machines will do the trick!

    Definitly a good set of tools, any specific ones you need for your machine, extra oil and filter, small set of jumper cables, zip ties, tie wire, multi tool, air compressor, tire plugs and a tire tube, in case the tire gets really damaged you can throw a tube in it and limp it out, can of either to seat the bead on the tire, tow strp, good working winch, bottle of Sea foam in case your fuel gets contaminated, extra spark plugs, dielectric grease

    Love the snorkels, we have them that height on our old quads, are Honda TRX350 had two and it looked like a bull, then are Yamaha Moto4 200 had one in the back because the airbox was at the back and we welded a washer onto the muffler for more back pressure so it wouldn't flood the engine, Now you could call it a 2 stroke because it smokes as much as one, normally one quart per 3 gallons of gas.
