Yes it will, Slides great I do not think it is top heavy but then again I am 44 years old and have to protect what few unbroken bones I have.

I have 27" 589's that cut into the low end power , but it still slides great and with the shocks on full firm it seems to have a little less body roll and less tippy.

In stock mode, yes it will wheelie, as long as you put some effort into it (it is a little bit harder for me considering im only 155lbs). With the HMF and other mods, it doesn't really matter what position your are in, high or low, the front end reaches for the sky.

It took me a little while to dial in a way to make it slide well. I ride fast and aggressive and i love to slide and jump. I used to stand a lot when i rode aggressively, but i found that sitting down helps keep the tires on the ground and takes away from the tippyness. Also stiffening the rear shocks made a world of difference. I have them set on the stiffest setting all the way around.

just picked up mine last night! OMG, how am I going to keep tread on the rear tires! My buddy took it for a spin, and almost went over backwards. I can't get over the torque. Does anyone know, how accurate is the speedo? The Kodiak does 56 on the Grizz's digital.
