P1000 Mud Riding Build 32in tires 34in tires

[Bradley-Thornton]

Nice looking ride I have the c-fab a-arms coming. Can’t wait to get them on! Why did you take the lift off will they not warranty it with it on there?

Most places aren't going to warranty with C-fabs lift on it.

Link and info about the secondary battery I will be using and why.

Few pics that relate to post #8

Close up of the mirrors still loving the they work great.


Few of my snorkel that show it a little better.





This shows the snorkel but also how clean the setup is on my street legal kit All it is is the box that says XTC super clean. (look back at post 8)


How I did my blinkers

How I mounted the switch and the emergency flasher button below.


Really happy with how my horn turned out.


It came with this when I got it they say it keeps you able to have a smother gas petal.


New item my flag got this off ebay.


Got me a 72x14 that way I can put my 09 IRS rancher on the front as you can see it has ramp to drive it up the sides.


Just a funny.

Thought I would share a little info. (If my math is off let me know)

Diameter x Pi. So 32x3.14=100.48 for a circumference compared to 27x3.14= 84.78
84.78 divided by 100.48 is .8437 so about a 15.62% gear increase, x 1.25 for the IGR is 1.05%, portals 4in 30% with IGR is 1.55 for a net 30.77% gear reduction, portals 6in 45% with IGR is 1.70 for a net 43.42% gear reduction.

So being I'm just doing the IGR I'm almost back stock just a little better by 1%.

That’s good to know if I leave my gears stock and run a 30” v tread my tires and wheels will weight 50 lbs altogether do you think I will have any problems turning them? I’m waiting for Honda to get the parts to do my clutch recall. I’m the guy that just rides around I don’t going looking for mud holes I just like the look of the v treads and if I do have to go threw the mud I will get to the other side

I have 32s now with no IGR and have no problems 30s should be no problem but You are increasing the strain on your motor and transmission. Think of it like a bike with 5 gears and you are going up a hill the the less gear you have the harder the more the easier same for your SXS.

 

[Rebelyell31]

I got ya I should be fine then I just cruze most of the time and I always have low gear if I should need it thanks for the info I do some work in Hattiesburg from time to time at USA yeast thanks for the information

 

[Rebelyell31]

Also one more question I see u did the high lifter bracket lift and the c-fab lift do u have any problem with the axles binding at all?

 

[Bradley-Thornton]

No, but C-fab sells a 2 1/2 you can stack now. I seen a guy say he had a problem come to find out he tighten bolts before letting the SXS down to let everything settle. After you put everything on you should let it down roll it back and forth maybe jump up and down on front and back then while down tighten it all up. I drove mine all over the yard but do as you feel comfortable.

 

[Rebelyell31]

Ok thanks I would have done what the other guy did glad I asked thanks I will post some pics when I get it all done

Great write up and good info. Thanks

Did you have to grind the top rear a-arms so the rear shock would clear without hitting the a-arm? If so how much? Corey told me to grind some off but didn’t know how much thanks

Mine didn't rub it was close like a 1/16in but it doesn't. I would say try without first but if you need to it will be very little.

Man..., I love your bike! I will be lifting my bike soon when I get time. We are going back to Sabine campground May 5th and I would like to get my done before then. I have a 12 x 6.5 trailer and was wondering about lifting 32 inch tires with out them sticking out. My bike is a 2016 with 32 hours on it. I just work alot and hardly have anytime to ride. I might have about 2 inches on each side of trailor to play with. I am trying not to but another trailor, bc it is still new like bike. Appreciate the info you posted, very good stuff.

 

[PMiller0530]

Buy another trailor I met.

 

[Rebelyell31]

Thanks Bradley I ended up getting them on with out having to grind anything they sent me the wrong lug nuts so I’m getting the right ones tomorrow and will post pics once I get the tires on
