Default Brute with itp xtr, Like a new bike

Just got my XTR's on my 06 brute 750, Rode it for 1100 miles with stock tires. Its like a whole new,better,different bike than stock. Anyone who owns a brute needs to upgrade the tires ASAP. I was starting to consider trading on a new Grizz because i thought the BF handled like crap. not anymore

I stuck with the 25's i weighed the new tired versus old and the new ones are 10 pounds heavier apiece so i may have lost some speed and acceleration, But worth it in my opinion.

You stuck with 25 ---- probably good unless you rally needed the 1/2 inch more in gc. The new tires will likely give you a little more gc anyway.

just out of curiosity did you stick with the same width or, if not, what did you go to front and back?

Just got my new 2008 750BF and had the XTR's on it from the start. I also ran this tire on my 800 Sportsman. This BF is awesome......

I stuck with the same width, they were a bit taller than the stock ones being listed the same size. A buddy is running the 26's on his BF 750 and they look alot bigger.
I do mostly summer riding and if i used it more in the snow i might have gone bigger
