I totally agree.I've tried about every set up possible and i just don't want to see anyone get hurt.
And your one person on here I won’t argue with. And I think you know me by now. . Haha
Hope we’re still good. All good here.

Haha. Hi Al. Is your snow melting.I have Roctanes 26 9 & 11s on stock rims that I run between 8 to 10 psi. I put 1” spacers on. I felt a slight to moderate increase in stability. I decided to get the spacers after doing a u-turn on a narrow road, riding the tire up a steep little slope and getting into a teeter-totter situation. The P5 wanted to tip when it tottered. I feel it when wheeling around a flat corner at speed... the machine will tend to slide abit more than it feels like it’s starting to tip. It’s a real ‘seat of the pants’ sensation. I’ve never seen a width-restricted trail out here. Sometimes I will crawl through a trail that quadders have put in and I might scrub my tires abit more. I don’t feel that the 52” stance has kept me out of anything. It still fits easily in the back of my GMC 3/4 ton with the plastic 6.5 ft box liner. I’m glad I got spacers and recommend them to anyone that doesn’t have to deal with width-nazis.
Haha, is that me.Good sh** Al! There's a few guys on here that still swear it's stable without the spacers but some of us know better.
I totally agree.

They don’t look like they stick out at all on the bigger bikes. Nice.View attachment 116544 like my EVO’s 27 “ 9 on the front 11 on the back with can am shocks and 1” 1/2 spacers .

Same here. Thanks brother.Absolutely we're good! I just give my honest opinion whether it's inline with others or not. No argument at all, just differences in opinion and that's healthy.
Haha. Hi Al. Is your snow melting.
Do you find it kicks up more mud inside, or do you have fender flares. Was going to ask Trigger that too. My daughter loves the mud. Wife, not so much. . Me I don’t care.

Haha, thanks Al. My buddy in Alberta is going up above 20 all week. Even my daughter in Cold Lake is up there in temperature. But you guys usually have a nice spring.Last week we had snow and so deep in spots it floated the P5. This week summer hit and the snow is almost all gone. That's good because we've organized a GPS ride with the ATV club. Yes... my tires stick out abit and some muds flies, which is awesome! I won't be putting on fender flares. The bit of mud makes the machine look mean. The mud doesn't seem to come inside the cab.
Happy trails.

Have a great spring Al. Post some pictures of this weekend. I’d love to see them. Have fun.

All, if you told me that was Cape Breton, I’d say looks exact. Some of the trails need a little widening.Well... here's a link to a YouTube I spliced together:
I'm the dude in blue. Didn't use the P5. It's in the shop getting a make-over (that's another story). I joined the Mid-Island ATV Club; about 200 members. There aren't alot of Hondas here, but we have three P5s that I've seen.

Spacers are the best bet for sure! 1.5” rear. 1” in front. With aftermarket wheels 5+2 makes for a very stable ride!!
