What does everybody seem to be running as far as tire size in the rear? The guy I bought my bike off of put some sort of sand/mud tires on it and they are 22's. I think he did this to give himself more clearance in the rear since the bike didn't have a swing arm skid plate and the rotor was a little beat up. I'm guessing he probably hit something and damaged the skid plate so he took it off. I am going to get a skid plate for it and wanted to go back down to the factory size tires because the quad is probably losing some bottom end due to the larger tire diameter. Can anyone verify this? A few of my buddies came over and rode my quad and told me it was very slow. They both ride a 400 LTZ and a Banshee. I rode both of their quads and mine doesn't seem like it's that much slower. I think the stock size tires will make it a lot stronger coming out of the hole. Any thoughts?
