I need a little more float. I tried to cross a pond a while back,but I didn't get the wheel speed up high enough before the drop off. It did a nose dive quick. The 27's got just enough float to keep it from sinking to bottom.

Hmm, can't say I have. I usually stick to the buttercup and gordon's well area.

I'd love to get a truck/quad meet together this winter out there. I haven't been out that way in years. Be a hell of a time to tear it up in the sand AND on the street

Julien, didn't you say you have like 5 months of leave to burn? You have no excuse not to go

no clutch mods yet...once the weather starts getting more warm i will most likely...but man if you havent put a pipe on yours yet DO IT! it woke mine up big time. I would deff. recommend two brothers over hmf...two brothers is way deeper and a little quieter..hmf is way to loud and raspy for me. Plus they make inserts for the two bros. that quieten it down more.
