I was just wondering if anyone else has made this mod, I think that that stock bars are way too high. I bought a set of cheap Moose Bars 16$ at the local bike shop. These have only about a 2"
rise as opposed to the 6" rise on the factory bars. These feel much better and give better control. The problem is that when you put lower bars on the headlights look too high.
I solved that by making a new headlight bracket out of some 1 1/4" angle iron, and got rid of the guard. This moves the lights down and back, it really tucks them in nice. It also makes quick steering easier by taking some of the weight off the bars.
You can see my quads, and some Cochranton pics at

I just going to see if Ican get decent buck for it. If I get it I might ( this is where you should sit down) defect and buy a Raptor!
I like the performance of the 500 but the Raptor seems to good to be true. I am going to wait and ride one first. I am not the kind to put down a deposit and sign for something that I can't even see.
Don't get me wrong the raptor has its faults and I am not ging to dump my 500 for peanuts just to get one.
I think that 5300 is fair. It has all the right mods
HPD aggressive clucth
HPD pipe
HPD jet kit
HPD lower post bearing
Hella 500 Lights
Rear rack
ITP Spider Tracks
Ultimax 2 Belt
Lowered bars
Lower factory lights
Speedo, Trip computer
Tow hicth
The bike has been used,, but I take care of it and do all the maint and Mods.
I will stand behind it.
See Ya Drew

If you had a Polaris, wouldn't you want to sell it also?
