Grizz 660 tow / haul weight

Hey everyone,
So i recently picked up a small uHaul trailer that was made to tow behind a motorbike or something. its the perfect size for towing my camp gear into the bush.
I was just wondering what the max for my grizz 660 is, Im 175lb, my wife is 125 and the trailer loaded (im guessing) will be 300 lb or so.
We were looking to tow it up some logging roads in the bush and camp at some hidden lakes this summer.
Will this weight trash my one way bearing or my belt?
I have a 1.5mm shim mod installed and other then that just an exhaust, air box mod, and stage 1 jet

GOOD BYE OL’ SCRAPPY

Well, I wasn’t sure I would ever do it, but after 4 years of work and a lot of money, I finally got rid of Ol’ Scrappy. I built it just the way I wanted and it performed flawlessly when it worked right. The problem was, every time I rode it, it broke down or something went wrong. I could always ride it home even though one part or another would not be working right. But, the last time I couldn’t get it home. I had to be towed off of the mountain. Plus, my wife could not ride double very well. She would just slide around all over the back end and couldn’t hold her self in one place.

So, we went and bought ourselves a brand new CF Moto ZForce 800 EX EPS. We love it and rode all last summer with no breakdowns. I took the tires and wheels from Scrappy and put them on the Z8. I am currently working on clutch work. I plan to add snorkels, custom bumpers, skids and a roll cage. I also plan to add some performance mods. I already have a 2 Bros. exhaust.

I wasn’t sure what to do with Scrappy. A friend of mine told me he had a modified Chevy 355 for sale or trade. He had seen Scrappy playing in the mud and wanted it. I wasn’t going to do it at first, but I have a ’67 Chevy project truck in need of a new engine, so I went for it. Maybe when he gets it fixed and gets some more good tires on it, I may see Scrappy in action again.

This is my Farewell Tribute to Ol’ Scrappy. Here are some pics and recaps of 4 years of work.

turning grizzly off in 4×4

Hey guys whats up, just gotta quick question, i had my grizz out in the snow 2 days ago, had a blast, tucked her away in the garage when i was done, never thought twice about it,

i just found out were getting more snow tomorrow and was thinking about the grizzly when it hit me that when i put it away the other day i left it in 4×4, does it matter if it’s left in 4×4 or even diff lock while its parked, or should you disengage everything back to 2wd before parking it?

Insurance help

So I bought a new 2015 Grizz 700. I called my insurance company today, and they quoted me 397.00 for the year. That’s on an 8000.00 machine, total loss, with 250/500 deductible through Progressive. I know I’ve been out of the game since 2004, but that seems high to me. What do you guys think. Thanks.

Just got my ITP wheels. This can’t be right!

Ordered a wheel and tire package from a reputable web site. In addition to the rear tires being the wrong width, it appears the holes in the wheels are way to big for the wheel studs on my grizzly. Can someone confirm this is wrong? Maybe these are for a sxs which has larger wheel studs?

FAIR PRICING!

I really want a 2016 grizz EPS in blue and I NEED a snow-trower (I’ve settled on a 1028).

I don’t want to regret the pricing I get ………….so………..can anyone tell me what a fair price before taxes would be?? And yes there will be a traded ATV.

I reside in south-east quebec not terribly far from NewBrunswick if need be!
