Prairie Ranks #1 (again!)

Hey Sled... have you noticed any performance changes due to the extra weight of the Bighorns? Anyone know if they make a 26" Bighorn??

But most of us already knew the prairie was the best one ride and the seat of your pants will tell you which is best.

I totally agree........it seems like they wanted to keep writing about the honda so that maybe they could convince themselves that honda should be #1. It was like they wanted to focus on the team that lost the superbowl rather than be in the winning teams locker room.

I can still wheelie with ease. I'm sure top speed may be affected a little but the improved ride and handling is well worth it. I had it up to 62 mph and probably could have gone a little faster but I ran out of road. That's good enough for me. I heard that 26" & 27" Bighorns will be available in June. They will be wider and alot heavier. Not worth the 1/2" gain in GC if you ask me.
