Default Couple Questions about the Bruin

Hey guys wonder if you can help me some of the things that have I can seem to get nowhere with when
I email companies.
1) What is the largest size tires/rims I can have for a bruin 350 4x4. Im guessing 26 x 8-12 & 26 x10-12 (stock is 25x)
2) I'm looking for an aftermarket bumper but I want it to be compatible w/ my warn manual lift plow arm. Any ideas?
3) Lastly, at present I only have A arm protectors, I want to swap out for more aluminum, but I can only find the yamaha ones. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places or I should of bought a different quad, I can find an abundant amount of parts/accesories for the kodiak and the grizzly. Slim pickings for the bruin. Any help would be appreciated.

without a lift kit, you can probably put 26" tires on-usually 26x10x12 and 26x12x12
i have a Genuine Yamaha bumper on my Kodiak and have a manual plow lift and you are right, the two arent compatible--the plow lift still works, but it rubs against the bumper thus chipping the coating
for aluminum a arm guards, check out rockymountainatv.com

hope this helps, 450kodman

Ronnies.com is showing these as the closest tire sizes to what you have.
Tire Sizes (2) 26x9-12 (2) 26x12-12

Where did you get your wheel kit from? I am all done buying aluminum protection and looking to buy something else. Do you need overfenders w/ those larger tires?

Default Couple Questions about the Bruin

hey man !

if you were talking to me...? i got them from these dudes http://outdoorsmanatv.com/ITP.html. you will have to call them for a price .i got full package tires, wheels, lug nuts, center cap, mounted,2 day ship; (C-Series Type 6) $550-590 i forget. but is worth everycent!!! this bettered ground clearance and mud ppffted what mud?!! lol get her in it and watch her crawl out . soup mug must becareful though lot of tire for the 350cc. buddy of mine has same thing i got but cluch kit jet/pipe , snorkal; it's now running with the big bikes !! of corse i couldn't let him one up me so i bought the grizz 2 weeks ago and plan to do the same tire package,+ snorkal+ 2in. lift. he will still keep up in the mud but once i put her in a deep hole and low watch the F out !! = ]

something to do
http://www.tommyrhea.com/videoclips.htm

go to site and download first file =] makes you want to jump in the mud!!

oh ya no need for fenders to be cut or anything but you may want to exstend them if your not feeling like getting muddy. but this will cause wind drag slowing bike down and all so making it easyer for mud to to catch you up a little.. think of it as if you just got stuck and your being pulled out the fenders will acked like a horse pow being used backwards.. hope this helps let me know



Jr.
now if i could figger this picter thingy out .. grr
