    Don't look too bad other then the front rack being bent. Looks like a nice rider, plus you won't get stuck with them tires. Must make for a rough ride though. My back wouldn't be able to handle it lol.

    I think 25x12x9 is the stock size, I can't remember off the top of my head. I would stick with that size and look for a skinnier profile tire. You'd be surprised the actual size difference between manufacturers with the same size tire.
    Personally I like the knobbies on the front like Carlisle or Cheng Shin.

    sorry I haven't updated this in a while but I got the crankcase pressure building up fixed it was a plugged vent lines. I also ended up trading the parts atc because its motor needed a lot more work then I first thought. I got this on trade its runs doesn't smoke just isn't the prettiest and the shifter splines are stripped.

    Also is there any power mods I can do to the engine? With the new tires it seems to be running a little lower in torque then I would like.

    ive been riding it for awhile now and just think it could use some more power for the steep hills, do they sell bigger rear sprockets for these anywhere? Or am I stuck to just engine mods for the extra power I need?
