I have grown to really like the yellow. It's the only other color I would choose besides the green or camo. However, I bought mine with hunting in mind. If it were just for trail riding, yellow would have been my first choice. What you have done with the hood really sets it off. Looks good!

Thank you. They are STI HD-3 14" rims with 5+2 offset. The tires are 27"x11" Ripsaws. I've been very pleased with them so far. I am not running spacers. I didn't know if 11" tires would clear up front, so I bought some 1.5" spacers when I was mounting everything, but it was a non-issue. Ended up sending the spacers back. Have never had any rubbing, and haven't had to do the frame mod. My OA width is still only about 53", and I have no trouble following any ATV down a trail.

I might move up to a 27 inch when i need new tires. So far i'm pretty happy with the 26 bighorns though. very smooth ride and dont seem to have slowed it down any.

Stay with the 26". If that doesn't suit you, get a bigger sxs.
