    Have a 2009 Yamaha Grizzly 450, it now has 1023 miles on it. The conncting rod where it hooks to the piston broke and did $2300 worth of damage to the motor. Called Yamaha and was told by customer service that they could not help me in any way…”you should have bought the extended warranty”…It is a risk you take when you buy an ATV. I certainly will hurry to buy a Yamaha in the future.
