Will be picking up my '08 Big Bear 400 w/ 48" plow Friday around 5PM EDT! I cannot wait to go for a ride [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I can't believe more people don't mention this machine, 4x4, 386cc, 5 speed w/ reverse, IRS, locking diff, 5 way adj shocks front and rear, PLUS comes stock w/ ITPs - I mean come on what a machine [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

This is my first four wheeler (only ridden pol 400, honda 400 and suz 250), and I plan to plow my driveway, do minor yard work and of course trail rides - so any suggestions/upgrades needed?

 

Hi, I put a HMF UTILITY PIPE on my 2006 400 big bear and could tell a big difference in low in power, plus a 2 to 3 mph top end speed gain ( 46 to 48 mph ) and the sound is really great !!!
enjoy,
