OMG I just had the griz off the ground about 5 ft off my snow pile at the end of my driveway a friend of mine said my eyes were the size of baseball I'm impressed with how well the beast did . I forgot the pile dropped straight off the back side this thing could be one mean tabletop machine. Well so much for the snow melting we just got another 6 or 8 inches spring is further away then I want it to be...

I put the tires on at the dealer so I never go to ride on the 25's still have them and they have never seen air. The tires I love I dont think I will ever get stuck hung up yes but stuck no way these tires really pull threw ever thing I bought my Raptor over ride on ebay goto motors and do a search Grizzly there is usaually a couple on there I havent put one on mine yet but the thought has crossed my mind Good luck RY

If you do get the bypass let me know how it installs Thanks

I have the ITP 589's on my Grizz and love them. Living here in Florida you need a good mud tire. I kept the 25's though, a buddy of mine has 27's on his Grizz and he's gained top end BUT lost some low end "grunt" that I still have. Riding where I ride and what I ride through I'd rather keep the low end "grunt" although my buddy has more "floatability" in the water. Still I go everywhere he goes and he's been known to get stuck before I do. Hope this helps. The wife's Kodiak is getting 589's in a month. If ITP had a 26 in the width I wanted I believe I'd have bought them. Also, the 589's are "squirrelly" at higher speeds.

hello proemtpff, I was wondering if you had put in a clutch kit or not. I was wondering if by installing a different clutch i could still retain the same low end grunt and keep my top speed the same. I f you have any ideas i would like to hear them.

No I haven't put in a clutch kit as of yet and doubt I will unless I was to go to the 27's. My friend with the 27's doesn't have a kit installed yet either. From what I hear the kit helps you get up to speed faster and doesn't help with the low end torque "grunt". I would have to hear from someone that had one installed before I purchace one. And I haven't put the reverse limiter override in either, I haven't felt that I needed one yet.

I often wondered how well the Grizzly would jump. It would be a pretty tense few seconds of air travel.......hehe. Glad to here you kept the rubber side down.

Later.

thanks for the info Quebecgrizz, it is very useful. I have heard of several guys who have disconnected there reverse limiter and there differential speed limiter to help with muddy conditions. and i plan on doing the same in the near future. I was wondering how you liked the mudlite tire i have been debating between them and a set of itp 589ms tires and plan on getting a set that is better then the original ones i have one now , I was out this weekend and got stuck bad it took myself and 2 of my friends and my winch to get me out. so i am serious out bigger tires and carrying a extra tow rope to add to the winch cable to get to a solid object. did you notice a gain on the top speed with the 26 inch tires? well thats it for now and any info is appreciated

The mudlites are just replacement tires for the crappy stock tires they are a great trail tire though.For playing and trail riding in the summer I have my mudbugs they are good all around .Why would I gain top speed because the tire is bigger?No you do not get any more top end you loose a bit because the tires are much heavier than the stock ones.stock 108km vs mudbugs 98-100km
