Texan,

Quite a few riders like the Mudlites from ITP - myself included. Do a search on tires in this forum and you'll get a lot of information and ideas.

Peace,
SgtRock

outlaws for mud, ITP holeshot ATR's for trails. A set that can do it all would be 27" Maxxis Mudbugs. they are superlight and hook up great! That would be my choice if i only had one set of tires. 27" Biclaws on the front 27" TriClaws Mud Machines on the back would be a close second.

ps....it's not the prairies fault that the stock tires suck ***...........

Texan, go with the mudlites, Not to expensive, light, not to hard on the front end, Tranny, belt good traction, good in mud, good puncture resistant, and not too much loosing power...
Good luck

Kawi650, Heard you guy's in Nova Scotia has a nice trail system, is that right. Do you know if the New Brunswick trail pass are accepted on your's. I know Here we have an agreement with the State of Maine and Quebec but I was wandering with you guy's. I like NS and seem a bit of your trail along rte 103- and 102.

Please let me know, me and a few friend want's to leave from Amerst and go trail your way next spring.

Thanks

what trail system? LOL don't travel 102 highway ditch big problems... if you do go slow and resposible any you shouldn't have problems but travel as little as possible. no trail pass fees. I can run trails everywheres but most are not fit for most atvers. You are more advance than we are. Let me know when you come and I'll take you around. Don't get me wrong there are some nice trails but it seams we just don't have enough of em. What's your trail pass worth?
