Nice Quads! I noticed the LED head lights. Nice upgrade from my 2014 model I have. I had to change one of the headlight bulbs this weekend. I'll have to see if I can order those headlights for mine.

As far as rider size, I'd say they are about the size of a normal 250-500cc

Those headlights are for looks, they're not very functional. We won't be riding at night much at all except when stalking coyotes and we don't use headlights for that, so no big deal for us.

Thanks for the heads up. The ones on it now do work very well at night. I just figured the LED's would be brighter. So if it ain't broke, don't fix it lol. I may just add some good LED's flood lights instead. We do ride at night.

Yep. Even the LEDS are useless, I hear. I always say, "It's so others can see you coming at night, because you certainly can't see them."

Just noticed you didn't flip the rear wheels. it widens the wheel base and makes it more stable on the curves and sharp turns.

Would that put your air valve on the inside of the wheels then? Is that what your saying? Just flip the outer to inside?

That is what he is saying. It changes the offset of the rims to your advantage.

It also gives more leverage to the wheels, so beware riding it like a spot quad with the wider stance given by the abnormal offset......who knows how strong those axles are.

What do you mean riding it like a spot quad? If this makes for a better ride and handling, should this just be a routine thing to do on any ATV? Are there any disadvantages or negative effects? Should this be done only on the rear wheels correct. Can't do it to the front because of the drum brakes I'm assuming?
