Just bought some pro pegs for my TRX 700

Well ordered them 12 weeks ago

Spoke to the sales guy at Honda and he said they were pretty straight forward to fit

Well when i got them out of the box they look a bit more difficult to fit than i thought ........... not to good with stuff like this

Don't mind trying to fit them but don't want to balls something up

so what do you think am i being a pussy or shall i get them to fit !!!

Ok Big jb

This is the fist Quad i have owned so i can't really compare it with to much

I have only ridden it on cross country tracks and not on sand dunes

The first thing that felt good about it was how comfortable it was and so easy to ride

There has been alot of comments on the extra weight compared to the raptor in the same class purley due to the IRS, and critics were saying it looks to bulky and will be slower.....how wrong they are!!

This thing flies......again i am only a novice but over the woops i found it just eats them up

The torque is awsome and when accelerating the power feels so smooth

When coming to bends i found it didn,t want to slide that much when i put the power on the rear end just dug in and powered out (prob because i was going to slow!!!!!!) Very Happy

And to finish i ride with to lads with Raptors they took mine for a spin
they said they loved it ...they ride alot quicker than me though

In conversation they brought something up saying i wonder if Yamaha will switch to IRS ???......who knows

Hey Big JB do you wanna fit my pro pegs for me !!

Well

Just to let you know i managed to fit them

They took me a bit of time they are made by ARC

The instructions you get with them are shocking

Also found that the fit is not perfect had to play around with them quite a bit.....but they look good though

Big JB the Honda was just about on its way !! Razz
