Dan...if ya haven't been on one....ya GOTTA try it...I absolutely love it !!!!
Yes..as a matter of fact I have a brand new still in the boxes set of c-series ( 4X137 ) that i'm going to sell. As for the c-series/holeshots on the 650...I don't know yet...it'll depend on what the new owner wants. Pm me if you're interested Dan

Don't tell me that about the BF. You aren't helping my wallet LOL!!!! Actually I'm thinking that I'll be waiting until at least the spring, maybe until the 2006 model before I make the jump. The 650 is working awesome.

I'm sending you a PM on your rims.

piski, i have dont alot of testing with highlifter and titan tire co. it you are wobbling with new wheels and tire then it is more that likely the tires. i would call where you got them and get them traded out. you can jack it up and put it in 4 wheel drive. spin them and you can see which one or if both are out. get it swapped out. you should not have to balance atv tires to get them ride smooth. i cant remember the oz's but all tires are made to the specs of i think is 5 ozs or less of force variation. which is out of roundness fo the tire. quality cotrol often gets over looked and pass on which atv tire manu. trust me i have done alot of working with these companies and you should NOT have to balance your tires.

thanks mudcon.....

what i think i'll do is swap the front ATR's from the 650, onto the 750, just to verify that it's the fronts...infact..the ones on the 650 only have 600 Kms on them so i can safely just do one at a time...that'll point to the problem tire.

kewl, its easily narrowed down to the frts if you handle bars are wobbling. its just witch frt one. even if you get center blocks to put it up on you can narrow it down to one or both. you can tell by the up and down motion and the side to side motion. just stare at the center of the tread pattern and see what it does. good luck
