Also have had newer Arctic Cat 400/500/700/MudPro 4wd's, several Yamaha Banshee, 2008 Can Am 400XT, 2012 Arctic Cat 450 4wd Camo, even back to my old days of factory original 1987 honda TRX 250R and 1990 Suzuki Quadsport 250S. Just upgraded kids Kazuma Meerkat 50 - use to be Kazuma dealer. Have been around the old 2 stroke racers to the new 4 stroke racers and 4wd models. I'm definitely converted to 4 stroke EFI.

Two Kawasaki Brute Force 750s. Left one is a 2012, right one is a 2011.

Wish they did the older style brute body and front clip with the updates of the new one. Almost got a new brute last year but settled on an Outty 1000XT for only a 1k more which was well worth it

Tbh I like the look of the 08 better. That's just my .02 though

I thought I did too, but now I'm not so sure. I think the white on the new one over the black on the old one is swaying my decision though. I never really cared for the black on my 08.

I like the blue control arms and contrast with the black plastic

I did like the blue control arms. I like the hood style better on the 08, but I like the color style of the 14 better. The dealer had a front bumper, foot rests, and foot rest extenders off of a 700R SE on the one I bought. Freakin $380 in parts. Some of the reason I bought it there, plus they were the cheapest.

    • Yep! This should be a pin somewhere as @pgamboa really dives into all of this. Thanks for reposting the link!
    • I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.       
    • Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.  
    • I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires. 
    • Atlas, you kill me As aggravating as a project like this can be you have been unable to hide your fascination with learning and using that angst against this beast like a Ninjitsu Master. It amuses you, admit it now.      BTW, love your writing style. 😉
