I was up at ALBA a few days ago and they had a few BLUE ltd editions there available. BUT I have to tell ya, I wouldnt do a LTD ED. The arent worth the extra money. The ONLY thing worth while is the blue plastic. The wheels and tires dont have the off set you NEED. They dont have a sport steering like stated on the website. ID do a reg green one, get it painted the way YOU want, Get a set of REAL wheels and tires.....and you'll be in it the same amount of money. IF you do call ALBA PLEASE ask for my buddy Geoffrey Walters @ 858-486-4380 ALBA YAMAHA.......either way GOOD LUCK, Toby

I had those on the first one I built, which is now RiverRoyal's ride. "IF" you add a rear cage and seats they will rub the black fender skirts....SO you will need to have them trimmed back a few inches. ALSO someone said that the larger tires and wheels REALLY hurt the performance out in the dunes. I havent had our new one out there yet, so I cant speak from experence. Heres a pic of the new set-up I have on the newest build....

bought the 12" polished ITP's and had them sent out to OMF for the beadlocks. Tires are the ITP 589's 26" tall on the 12" wheel. I have heard that if you air way down, its easy to roll a tire off the wheel, because of the heavy weight of the vehicle, hense the beadlocks. Here is a pic of the 14" set-up thats pretty popular right now.

Thanks this is very helpfull is their a certant offset that is good I would like to get them out a little further?
Thanks for the info
The only one that I have found would be green or the camo edition wich is the same price as the limited (don't know why) I was told if you are going to paint you should by the camo because the paint sticks to the rough texture better. All I know is that I need to pick one before they are all gone.

Thats TOTAL B/S about the painting over camo! The camo's are more money and MORE difficult to paint then the std green units.....DONT DO IT! Here are a few links off Ebay. You want to either contact my buddy at ALBA YAMAHA in Poway (GEOFFREY WALTERS 858-487-4380 ) or someone like David Glassman at Tousley in MN. There IS NOT a shortage of Rhino's!!!!!

just a few examples.....also search on the online ATV trader, they are everywhere! you may have to ship it out from back east, buts it NOT a big deal at all. Just make sure you buy form an AUTHORIZED YAMAHA DEALER. GOOD LUCK....Toby
