I've been putting together a four-wheeler to ride this summer. It's replacing the one that was stolen a few years back. Here's a couple Pics.

I ordered Some speakers and stuff to get some tunes put on it yesterday so I'll update when I get that going. BTW, that's Double D in the background, I'll be back to sanding and priming her this weekend.

Looks ready to go anywhere.

Could have used that this past weekend in the campground at Martinsville ... never saw so much dang mud!

Oh now, I love a Grizz! Mine is an '02 with 2" lift, flipped hubs, Highlifter springs, I have 29.5" Outlaws on ITP wheels and 28" Mud*****es on Rattlesnakes. I sunk it at Doles, GA and ruined the engine so I upgraded it with a 686 big bore kit with 11:1 dome Wiseco piston, Hotcams Stage II cam, Kibblewhite Titaniun valve springs and the head has been ported/polished. I put a dynojet kit and HMF muffler on it as well. I put a wet clutch kit and a Rhino primary and this a Brute Force killer up to about 55 MPH. At that point the lower "gearing" Rhino primary is all done. It will pop a wheelie sitting on seat with just a crack of the throttle. Since these pics were taking I have relocated the radiator to keep it cool! I clean it really good after each time I ride to check for leaks, torn CV boots etc, but I ain't afraid to get 'er dirty.

Man Mike, that thing looks great. At least your head will be above water...

It makes mine look kind of whimpy.

I expect to go for a ride in the truck next time I'm down that way.

Well, after blowing the front diff out and tearing up a Gorilla axle for the third time I decided I was too hard on the ol Grizz. I replace it with the Rhino in my avatar. It has 29.5s as well but skinnies on the front. I'm working on some tunes as we speak. I'm working on the truck now Leon. Hopefully it will be mobile before too long!

I'm hoping to go for the weekend but I won't know for sure until it gets closer. Are you coming down for it?
