Default Plastic shaving

I need to help. Im racing my 2002 Grizzly 660 at the local mx track and I can't go fast enough to keep up with the other bikes. So if I shave the fenders Ill have less wind resistance and go faster. So how do you think I should shave the fenders? post some pics of a grizzly with shaved fenders if you have some. Thanks

i say you sit down and just look at your grizz and deside what you think would look the best and suit your needs then you can tape off where you wanna cut and use a roto-zip to trim them along the tape line..

If your friends are driving sport or high performance quads, there is no way you could keep up with them on an MX style track with cutting fenders on a Utility quad in any way shape or form.

this is one of the most confusing topics ive ever seen. your screen name makes me think you are an all out mojave fan but your icon is yamaha. you post a repy asknig about MXing a utility (grizz) but your sig says you have a wolverine[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img] what the crap?!?!?! i dont want to know if you are serious cuz unless you are really really skilled you arent going to be able to keep up with any quad on an mx track. and sorry but shaving your fenders isnt going to help....at all. all i can say is ARE YOU SERIOUS? or making fun of yamaha? i dont get it?
