opinions on a Yamaha Grizzly

I found a 2000 Yamaha Grizzly 600...the guy wants $3,900 for it. NADA shows $3,820 average retail. It's got 2k miles, aftermarket 27" tires in darn good shape, plus two more sets of rims/tires...don't know what condition or brand though.
What do you all think about this machine and/or price?
Thanks!

2000 seems like alot of miles, more than most people where I live get to ride. I would look it over real good. Extras are mucho $$ so that counters it some, but look them up on ebay and autotrader etc for real pricing, as you may get lower miles for the same or less $$. Just my .002

My neighbor has one and does everything from plowing snow to gravel in his driveway. When I had my Warrior, it would kick its but too. Yes , I would buy one.

I hear ya, but things in Alaska are not always close together....the machine is four years old....500mi. per year.
Racked up 1k miles on my sled this past winter.....
Either way I have to decide by Saturday afternoon.....

Check it out Im not sure if that year allowed you to take it out of 4wd and they are a real Grizzly to turn when there in 4wd all the time ,...not to good for trail riding or just play. In 2000 their are alot of good atvs I suggest you do some research on all models because there is a night and day diffrence between each brand. I have a 2002 kingquad and I love it it has 36 diffrent gear options and its a real work horse I pull a trailer with 1/2 cord of wood up a hill in the snow to my back door about once a week , I also plow my drive way about 600 yards when its snowing , I pulled 600"S, 650 ect backwards when Ive droped chains with my buds they are not happy when a 300 pulls them back Its my littl' cummins 4 wheeler. btw its got both dif. lock and independent front and rear sus. I gave 4400 for mine brand new you can find a 2000 for much less they are the same bike nothing changed but you might have a hard time finding one but on the other hand in 05 the king will return in a 700cc efi model, ...tempting.......but it still doesnt have all the gears as the classic.
