I dunno about the machine, but it would have superswamer vampires on it they are the sweetest mud tires I've ever seen, they look alot better in person if that is believable..

mudman,
my thoughts:
ground clearance+ power+ traction= the ultimate mud machine!
i think you would want the sp500.
Tires: last year ATV Magazine did a in-depth review on tires. i can't remember what issue it was. anyways, they recomended 2-3 different model tires for mud use. i think all three are terrific mud tires and i chose the Outlaws. you will sacrifice A LOT of trail ride quality BUT i think they ARE the ultimate mud tire. i went with the 26"s. it adds to the all-ready great ground clearance and you don't need a lift kit!
the new tires have not robbed a lot of power either 'cause they are on the 'lighter' side vs the other mudders out there.
whatever you get, head for the deepist mudhole and have fun!

'01 sp500h.o. red
26" outlaws on alloys
2000lb warn winch
the rest is stock and mean enough!

We will try to make it. Our shop is full of customers machines that we are getting ready for that trip. I am not sure if we will have time to get our bikes ready. I am glad you like the c.v. shaft, let me know when you want to convert the other side. The USA shafts are much stronger than the BTB'S.
