Default Bumper's for 700 Prairie

Well after this weekends bar banging bash! And having my new exhaust smashed in, Im in need of Bumpers BIG TIME!! Ive called just about everybody and Im told there is nothing made for the P700 yet? Has anyone tried any of the 650 bumpers and maybe with a little tweeking made it fit?? Also if anyone has any custom bumper makers please pass along.. ~chris

If you have Penland Bros. phone number I'll give them a try, but I was told that Pro Armor custom makes Bumpers for them and what Mike has is a one of a kind. I asked them if they would make me one and didnt care to much about what it cost, but no dice. Was told I would have to wait till late Jan. they might have something out? but because of the TRX450r, The 4x4 stuff might take a back seat.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] So I was wondering what others have done? and if any body knows a good custom maker??

Would the aftermarket P650 bumpers fit?

I got your pm but I have been busy busy busy,,, the bumpers on mine that you asked about I made myself. They have taken some very hard hits and have bent slightly. I have to make at least 3 more of the rear bumpers for some other guys around here but the big thing is getting time to do it. We just got an aluminum welder so I'm thinking I may try to fab some out of aluminum to reduce the weight. The hard part is getting the tight bends for the ends. If you look at my picture page I know you can see one pic of the rear which protects the exhaust, tail light and fenders. The front looks very simular to the stock 650 prairies but it made of alot stronger material. I kept these off my 650 and they are now on my 700 Prairie.

Were any changes made? or will the 650 bumpers mount up to the 700? Was thinking of going with a kimplex rear just to have something. But even kimplex doesent know if they will bolt up?

Yes, it all bolts right up from the 650 to the 700.

Hey Prairiewench,
Do you have any photo's of your rear bumper? Did you just weld a new front bumper onto the P-700 chassis? Where did you bolt it to if you did bolt it?
Thanks,
Sirmill
