What size ?????

12’s or 14’s ???
I’m ordering new rims and tires… I would like to get the Maxxis Zillas AND would like 12 wide in the rear and 10 wide in the front.. Seems only way to do this is go to 27x12x14 & 27x10x14 OR, go 28x12x12 & 28x10x12

I have a brand new set of (on another atv) 26x11x12 & 26x9x12 but like the 1" wider

Am I missing something???

Biggest Semi Manual Transmission Yamaha Utility ATV

I really like 5 speed Utility ATVs with automatic clutches, but the only Yamaha utility ATV that was a 5 speed that was also bigger than a 250cc ATV was the Yamaha Big Bear 400cc. I am NOT a fan of how the Big Bear looks so i was wondering if there were any other Yamaha Utility ATVs that have a semi automatic transmission that are bigger than a 250cc engine

Sportsman 300 brake issue

Bought my son a 2008 Sportsman 300 and it had a very faint back brake pedal. Thought maybe the pads were worn so I replaced them but still no difference. Got a new rear master cylinder, swapped it out, and now I have problems with front and rear brakes.

The front brake lever pulls in with no resistance unless the rear brake lever is depressed. I tried bleeding the front brakes and still no good. The rear brake doesn’t even build enough pressure to bleed the rear system.

Any ideas???? I’m at a loss here.

Thanks
Rich

A-arm removal

Hey y’all. So i need to change out bushings on front lower a-arm. The bolt at front is in such a stupid spot. I’ll need to take off my skid plate, winch and mount just to remove bolt.
Im assuming there is no other way. Frustrated.
