well, ken, if you must know, one needs that traction to get the speed to launch such a heavy machine!

Ordered my 25" Bighorns yesterday! Can't wait to get them on!

I'll post a review as I try them out. 8)

Got the Bighorns out on the first ride today. conditions were mostly dry, and very rocky. Tires are hands down the best trail tires I've ever run! The ride quality is awesome!!!!!!!!!! 8)

Cool. Not surprised they ride nice on trails.

Got my 25's on......Wow, what a great tire. Ride quality is unreal, and just from my first short ride, the traction seems really good too! Steep rocky climbs and never needed 4wd. I will continue to report as I try them in differnt conditions. Yesterday was dry and very rocky, and they did great!

Here is a pic of them on my ride!

wanted to ask how do you keep the dog in the front basket?
Hello

My dogs say hello. . .

Dusty's looking for a rack for two dogs. Or two little white things?

For the ride, I have a rubber textured mat cut to fit the bottom of the rack with a very short leash that connects to a harness that he wears upside down with the D ring on his chest. He has a soft sided cooler on one side of him, and a all weather pillow on the other side to brace him in, and a foam chin pad on the top edge of the rack. He loves to go along, and gets unloaded when the going gets even a little tough, as to not risk him getting hurt. He loves to hunt chipmunks during our breaks, and has returned with them already. :lol:
