Again, these are closer to being sport quads than utilities (except for the portly weight!), so not a great idea to turn them into clunkers with huge tires. And this engine is a bit oversquare, and likes to rev and be ridden fast more than it likes to grunt. Again, they went for more of a sport approach, rather than the work quad route.

Totally agree. I just picked mine up a few days ago and it likes to run and be thrown around. Great handling, nice suspension, good ergonomics. The motor pulls me(250 lbs) around just fine although the "powerband" is definitely between 20mph and 40mph. Its a good motor, without question.
And, yeah, stop trying to put 33 inch swampzillas on Ranchers.... geesh!
