Default What Upgrade for foreman 450 next?

Hello Everyone,

I purchased a 450 foreman S about 5 months ago,
I have added a ramsey winch (That came in real handy today!)

My question is what would you guys recomend for an upgrade.

Tires, exhaust, skid plates, Slight lift (another inch or 2 of ground clearnce would be great)

I ride mainly trails with mud and ruts, creek crossings etc.....

Thanks for the input

Protection for the bottom and the a-arms. Then buy new tires after you wear the tires down.

I agree, undercarraige protection and a frame protectors. When you do purchase tires you can go larger in size and gain the much needed ground clearance..I put a 2inch lift kit on mine last week and it didnt seem to affect the handling at all and it still feels just as rock solid on off camber trails as it did before. Only problem with the lift kit is that it doesnt help on the rear since the Foreman utilizes a straight axle. No matter how much you lift the body and frame, the rear axle stays the same height. Tire diameter is the only real way to increase the ground clearance issue. I have also added Kempex hard boxes to the front and rear racks for carrying gear, helments, food, etc. They are very handy to have and look nice too.
