You create some good videos and I really appreciated your video on your cleaning process. I have a question about trail riding. I'm trying to decide between a 64" machine and a 68" machine. I read somewhere that Wisconsin had a width restriction of 65". I can't find anything online to confirm. It appears that you ride in several different states. Appreciate your thoughts on width. I don't want to purchase a 68" machine only to find its illegal to ride. Thanks.
Awesome you like the videos. In regard to the width restrictions you are correct, Wisconsin does have width restrictions of 64". Pretty much stock width of most Sxs's. However, most people install aftermarket rims with a 4/3 or 5/2 offset and at that point technically your over width. Now every machine I've owned has had aftermarket rims and are around that 68 inch mark. I've never been stopped or harassed. However, it is possible they could write you up. Now anything wider i don't recommend due to width restricted gates, any wider and you won't fit and they will give you problems. If the rig your looking at is stock 64 and has aftermarket rims and tires wouldn't be too concerned. if the rig is 68 stock wouldn't do it. I've had conversations with DNR and they are getting wiser to machines that come stock wider than 64. hope that helps. In regards to out of state sd is the only state I've been to that has width restrictions otherwise every where else I've been not an issue.
@@leterripadventures Thanks a bunch and good advice. I have WS and SD on my bucket list so want to be as close to legal as possible. The 64" machine sounds like the way to go, as you noted any aftermarket rims will extend it to 66-68". Take care and thanks for the great videos.
Love ripping in that pit
