I’ve had mine 10 years. Use it around the farm. Just replace the belt with 110 hrs. I do pull some weight with the machine. I agree it’s bulletproof. Just change the oil regular and zero issues. I’d like better lights too but don’t drive much at night. Great machine.

Sure is! Thanks for stopping by!

What’s crazy is the Teryx LED lights are a direct replacement for the terrible Brute lights. Direct plug & play. They could easily add those in and should.

i should investigate those lights. thank you

May want to try 27" zillas - 23 and 28 lbs I think (on 14"rims... not sure the weight on 12" rims).. wear very well for bias ply, good in mud and rock and trail, light enough to wheelie and accelerate without undue strain on drive components, no clutching needed. I've had zillas on 4 of our 5 brutes over 15 years riding on them. I initially had XTRs one one (they were heavier but ok) and ITP 589s on another (great in mud, but like driving a tractor on the road and heavy as Eff, reduced acceleration... dumped them after 25 kms

Ancla I thought was pretty light at 26 inch. I was thinking of trying to get the 28s on 14 inch wheels. I hear ancla tires are fantastic in muck and snow. This true? They plow good? How's the reverse traction? Maybe a clutch kit is in your future? Yeah those lights are a real sick joke.

after some thought, they are actually a great tire, i just got the impression after riding both bikes they weigh considerably more than stock [of course] but there may be better lighter options. they wear very well, almost none in the year or so i had them. they plow very well and reverse traction never ever let me down. cant clutch until warranty os gone. you want to see anclas in action, check the video i dropped today

What gps/program do you use? Can you do a review on it? Looking for good one at moment for riding here in Florida.

Just purchased the Koplin Throttle Master Thumb Extender. Did you have to make any adjustments to make it fit properly?

@BruteforceExplorer

Жыл бұрын

i was very VERY VERY careful that the top of the thumb paddle did not bind at all on the metal above it. You 130% DO NOT want it to be even close to binding as it could end very very badly if the throttle was stuck on due to the thumb extender binding.

Someone needs to 3d print an option that is less shit than the Kolpin which even on Amazon reviews has accounts of people going WOT with them as a result of not careful installing. KNOW WHERE EMERGENCY SHUT OFF is.

I love the four-wheeler but it keeps climbing in price and they keep giving us the same quad since 2004. Update the suspension in a couple small things and they would have a winner again easily competing with the best from every other brand. I don't get the Honda reference I own a 2021 Rubicon and they've had it in mud up to the seat and I have probably the same mileage on mine nothing's come close to breaking I'm also $275 lb and 6 ft 3 she doesn't get babied and it just keeps asking for more brute force as faster of course based on engine size but if you want to go ahead ahead with resale value and who will last the longest my money would go with the Honda all day long

Honda reference is me teasing one of my buddies who has a Honda. Honda is king for reliability.
