my buddy's beastly 2002 Suzuki Eiger 400 4x4 5 speed. 28" Swamp Foxes mounted on ITP alloy wheels. Custom trimmed fenders by DeWalt. Winch hidden behind the front bumper. Insane mud machine, and still runs around 65 mph even with those tires on.

Awesome eiger, we had an 03 with 26in swamp witches. We bought a 600 grizzly though after rolling the eiger and busting the front shocks and a few other things. Oh and if i remember they are only geared for 60?
Stock they top out at 60, but the taller tires give the effect of much taller gearing. His speedometer only reads 55 now, but side by side with my trailtech it was around 65.
I also forgot to add that this beast has Works shocks on it so it corners awesome and doesn't handle jumps too bad either.
Also some badass skids we made, similar to the designs the racers in the utility classes use. Angle iron pretty much welded directly on the frame rails, and nothing to get hung up on rocks.

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and u guys say I need a sport quad!!! if he's jumping that beast!!! is that your place yamarider?
He's jumping it, but only a couple feet of air, and he's not trying aerial acrobatics like you are lol. The stock shocks were extremely weak, and the thing wanted to nosedive and flip every time you turned with it.
That pic was taken at paragon's campground the last time we were there, a few minutes after the fenders were torn off.
When that thing was stock, the fenders stuck out about an 1-1/2" past the tires on the front and the back, so you'd never get muddy when riding it unless you really splashed into something hard. You can see there's quite a difference now, between the wheel offsets, wider tires, and trimmed fenders the front tires stick out past the fenders as much, or more than most sport quads.

Wow I bet those things rub like crazy. The 28's rub both fenders and even got hung up on the floorboards when we jumped it or turned sharp (until we beat the **** with a fire extinguisher to re-shape them). Looks like those are swamplites, awesome tires.
