Anyone run this? I have an 07 450

currently I have the bling-star iron cross bumper, it completely blocks the headlight, so night riding is not even an option.

going to buy another bumper, I like the Bull Horn, any of you guys running one? have apicture of it on the bike?

i had one on mine...i hated it...it made lifting the front end awkward, didn't really protect much, but it looked good...i ended up trading it for a prm baja... here is a pic:

Great bumper! Looks great and I think makes lifting the front of the quad much easier for tall people.

How much do you like your frame? I've seen two quads with chassis damage from running one of those bumpers. They're built too strong and don't give when you hit something. One was a Z400 that went head on with a Raptor, the frame was bent beyond repair, but the bumper was still intact and bolted right on the replacement chassis. The other was on a YFZ that tangled with a tree (not a very hard hit), it tore one of the top mounts off the chassis and destroyed one of the bottom mounts. Again, no damage to the bumper. Personally I'd rather replace a bumper than a chassis when I hit something.

Interesting to read some feel its too strong, we have bent many of them:p But I do agree, to strong a bumper will damage frames, its a no win deal really. Some just buckle from a love tap, others are reused after installing a new frame....I geuss it all depends on the point of impact:confused:

I don't know how set you are on the Bull Horn but this is the DC bumper from Blingstar. I love it, looks good, lots of front end protection and it doesn't block the light.

I have heard from people that these bumpers are not good for racing xc because vines and junk can get caught and rapped on the horns or the horns can get bent into your suspension components jamming things up.

I think my Blingstar john natalie victory bumper is the sweetest looking bumper made.
