With the upgraded tires and everything, I have AWESOME ground clearance (same as a grizzly). I've got a video of me doing 74mph on the street passing one of those speed signs that shows you how fast you're going... in 4th gear. lol They say out in cali in the desert, they're running around 92mph topped out. Won Baja 1000 and 500. Don't get me started on the quad... i'll just keep talking. lol

sorry i called it a polaris

All it takes is a "fast" quad... a street bike helmet, gloves, jacket - all necessary protective gear... and a little Jack Daniels. You'd be surprised what you'll do! lol jk

Yeah... mine used to have mods, but now it's all back to stock and just an awesome trail quad. The polaris aren't that bad, my buddy has one. Mine is more built to make the trails easier and more comfy. After riding in my buddy's new RzrS with Fox shocks, i think suspension might be my next mod. That thing was like a cadillac.

I would advise anyone ordering from DDM to be patient. These things come from China, but hopefully the $25 investment works when it gets here. If not, I'm glad it was only $25. Their website says allow 7-10 days. Tomorrow will be 10 days for my order and they're still in china.

Well I just bit the bullet and ordered the dual 55w hi/lo 5k for my RG, and 2 single sets for the kids bikes. Lets see how long it takes to get here. The concern I have is my positive post is getting pretty full, I may to have to look for an alternate power/ground points or make a bus bar.

ya thats the sucky part about them. the first time i ordered from them i think it was 10 or 11 days but the next time it took way less time & i think it was less than 7 days. i dont think you will be disappointing.
these things should come factory in everything.

Both of my cars have factory installed HID's. Best thing going, but I think LED is going to be the future though.
