Hi all,

Found this forum last night , looks good . I have a 2005 Grizzly that is set up for hunting. ATM it is stripped down after a 10 day hunt. Had some overheating problems . The bike caught fire from all the grass in the bash plates. Used the fire extinguisher to put it out . Doing some mods to the cooling system but if they don't work will get a radiator from Highlifter or PWR. Going on another trip in 3 weeks time . Buying a second set of tyres to put on some rims a mate gave me, these will be for hard/rocky ground. Have Gators on ATM. Looking at the Maxxis Bighorns. Any way that's enuf for now , no doubt will ask a few ???,s down the line.

Regards
john

Thanks for the welcome. I mainly hunt pigs. Also I'm a member of the Conservation & Pest Management ( NT) which is a branch of Sporting Shooters and we cull animals for landowners and Gov depts. Last year I travelled a bit and shot 2 species of deer as well as goats,rabbits and foxes. Also do a lot of bird hunting.

Grizzly thanks for the offer , what parts can you source? I was talking to Andrew at Austraco the other day. Anyone know what the going price for Maxxis Bighorns are . I'm putting 27-12-12 & 27-9-12's on .

Just got back from a 10 day donkey cull. 846 feral pests are not there anymore. I'm all bruised and battered, rolled my quad on a gibber & spinifex covered hill. Landed pretty hard . Have to do a few repairs before the next one .

Regards
