Description: These things have never let me don't. Granted, they are the only tire I have owned besides stock dunflops. I have thrown rocks, mud, hard pack and snow and always looked pack impressed with their performance. 500 + miles and they are still looking like new too.
The one negative and it's not much of one for me, is they suck at 40 mph +, lucky for me I hate going any faster than that and rarely get close.

Purchase Price: $37.00
Purchased From: 2R Racing
Purchase Rating: 10/10
Description: Sounds Awesome! but machine did cut out when reved, unless it was a gradual throttle increase, it's cutting out. I have corrected this with the pod mod but, when something is advertised the way this is, "Since the Grizzly 550 and 700 are fuel injected and the system has enough self adjustment to compensate for our tip no need to worry about fuel mixtures. " I expect it do what it says.
It does sound much better and mixed with the pod mod, I notice a better response on take off, I don't know if I would say more power but the response is there.

Description: Since I added the 2R power tip and it cut out a bit when pinned, I decided to do this mod and why not? it's free and it's a chance to get to know my bike better. After install, I played with it until I hit the magic # 45 in the fuel settings. My spark plug is light brown on the tip and fairly dark, but not sooty on the strap. Noticed less of a lag in response, can't really say I notice any power gains though.
