Default Proper lift kit

I am trying to find the best lift kit for my '06 Sportsman 700. I am looking for 4" to 6" of lift, and want it to be right. I have seen the cheap lifts on e-bay and am not real sure about them. I'm hoping that someone here can tell me from experience which lift is better, and if there are any cons to lifting my bike.

Thanks for the help.

The cons are highly increased wear on your CV joints.

Also it will not handle as well.

Other cons include broke stock parts like, shafts, CV joints, belts and overall reduced service life. If you looking to an update to get more useablity out fo the bike stick with the 1-2 inch lifts. You also going to need a clutch kit and bigger tires.
