Default 2004 bruin

hey everyone,
i have a 04 bruin 350 4x4.i am doing some upgrades to it.i am going to order a hmf slip on,a dynojet jet kit,k&n air filter,but i am also thinking about a clutch kit.so my question is will it actually make a difference and will i loose any on the top end?and is anyone running this set-up if so how do you like it?
Thanks

i have an 06 bruin 350. the dynojet kit and muffler should give it more power, but i wouldnt fool with the clutch. it will take away from your top end which can, in some cases be bad. i put a clutch kit in mine, and i had to run it wide open to keep up. i switched it back to the stock set up.

he Bruin was designed around a large frame, same as the Kodiak 400. As a typical mid-sized unit, the Bruin needed to stay with full size 25 inch tires, almost ten inches of ground-clearance,undefined large fenders, roomy floorboards and a full-length skid plate.

The new Bruin is a 350cc utility ATV with an automatic transmission and is available in two models, a 4x4 and 2x4 version..

The Bruin is a mid sizes chassis like the 450 grizzly or Big Bears,not a full size chassis like the 660/700 grizzly. The 350 is the same 348cc( Bore x Stroke 83 x 64.5 mm) motor Yamaha has used for years on the many ATVs like the Warrior,Wolverine,new 350 Raptor and old Big Bears are they not?

Shouldn't the 350 Warrior and Raptor mods and tricks also work on the 350 Briun/Grizzly?

ok so i have a 132 jet installed with the hmf exhaust.seems to be getting hot even just at idol.any idea what size jet i should be useing?also anyone have an epi clutch on there bike?should it seem like it takes alittle longer to move when giving gas to pull away?i only had it running for a couple mins because it seemed to be to lean but the clutch just didn't feel right.if the nut that holds the primary and secondary clutches were torqued to much would that cause it?any other ideas?

thanks in advance..
