It would be interesting to see a measurement across the width of the machine, to the outside edge of the tires, to see if the spacers pushed wheels out past 50".
How do you like your 800? I really like the honda 520-dump bed. 50" Hondas 700 is over 50" and the 1000 is too large for my needs. But I see your 800 50" has me looking at your 800. I like the 50" trails also. So how is the performance matched to the honda?? I know the 800 with the street legal kit for street licensing is a big plus.. do you think your sxs for dependability is equal or better than the Hondas reputation??? Maybe you'll give us a review down the trail sometime? Thanks. Be well and healthy.. Toledo.
This is my 1st side-by-side so I have nothing to compare it to but it's cheaper than All the other brands . Time will tell and maybe I will do a review later on down the road
@@JLafix Thanks for responding back... That review would be greatly appreciated. Your video came into my orbit back when your mercury grand marquis engine was giving you a problem. You had the camera set up, you started the engine and I witnessed that ( little prick ) shooting out of the drivers side of the engine!!! I haven't heard that expression in years, I truly laughed my a$$ off. I've clicked on your videos ever since. I too have a mercury grand marquis, light green also. Best darn car, always started even -20° one year. Just very reliable !! Thank you. Toledo.
I haven't noticed anything but I use this thing maybe twice a year so not really gonna know it's anything Plus I did this when the vehicle was brand new so I have nothing to compare it to .
Have you gone back to nh? I live in nh and have a 21 trail, it does great, but yes needs a little more clearance, I’ve herd if you add bigger tires you gotta do a clutch kit, did you do one?
I did go back no problem cleared every thing, and no I didn't clutch it have no intention of clutching it because there's no need to as far as my opinion goes.
@@JLafix Thank you I am looking at the exact tires , do your bike feel tippy or unstable with the extra height?, one more question did you lose any noticeable power? Thank you so much.
Great video, Also have a 22 trail, same lift kit 28 inch Terra Hooks, GSE performance exhaust, GSE Air & pre filters. Happy CFMOTOING.
That looks great! I can't wait to do that to mine.

With the spacers it about 53" ...its hard to get exact measurements
@@JLafix Thank you! That is close enough, I know not to add spacers, as some trails have posts set at 50" 🙃
@@J_Calvin_HobbesYeah, that's kind of a deal breaker for me. Defeats the purpose of owning a 50" machine.
Turn your shock preloads about 10 turns down to get more ground clearance
Looks like one adapter goes on inside an spacers work fine!
I was thinking this exact thing. Same way for front and rear
I have a 800 trail with same lift kit , Thinking of adding 1.5 wheel spacers plus. 28in tires did you have to reclock the clutch
Did nothing with clutch.
Looks awesome
Awesome video. Where did you get the wheel spacers from?
Amazon

Nice video!! Thinking of either a lift or 27” tires for my 500. Have you noticed any power loss, tippyness, or wear on bushings/bearings? Thank you.

That thing looks great! Do the front tires rub at all?
No they don't rub

I’ll probably do lift and tires as well, I made a seat riser and windshield for mine
@@davidnoyes9115 cool did a windshield but seat was fine.
Curious why you bought a trail model just to widen it out with spacers in bigger tires Doesn’t that defeat its original purpose.
Do you notice any rubbing from the front tires?
No rubbing at all, but I did have to put a few turns on the tie rod to adjust the toe
@@JLafix Awesome. Thanks for the reply
Have you had any issues with the higher center of gravity?
None. It's just like 3 inches taller but also a couple of inches wider
@@JLafix thanks
Hey boss man can u send me the tire links u used fo them I would like that exact tire size for mine
Don't remember where I got them, but if you Google 28" Kenda Bear claw HTR I'm sure there will be several places pop up
@@JLafix thank you sir 👍
Are your new 28" tires same width size on all corners? EXCELLENT installation video Btw 😎
Not sure , but they are oem rims
Hi I have the exact same bike , lift kit etc, what size tires did you go with all around ?
They are called kenda bear claw HTR size is AT28 by 11R14 In the rear and the same kinda bare claw HTR tire in the front except it's 28 by 9 by 14

You put ur back tires on backwards
Yes noticed the next day...good catch
