Id like to see some pictures of the skidplate when its done, if possible.   one other thing is Im looking for a bumper that has tubes that run along the front fenders back to the roll bar, kinda like what you see on alot of rock crawler buggies. I spend alot of time in the woods and im always squeezing between trees. A little side protection would be nice.

"Not because a child might have an accident on the diminutive machines, but because if a child develops an appetite for the device's brakes or battery terminals and decides to eat the ATV" 

( WTF)   If your kid eats parts of an ATV then maybe you should feed them more often. :idea:

you can get some small pipe fittings at home depot that are made to tap into tanks pipe thread on one side and hose fitting on the other and will make it so you can run a larger vent line and also run it higher out of the the way. it doesnt cost much and is a simple add on. 3/8 heavy duty gas line works great.

looks sweet. The lower part of the vertical bars should go farther down to help objects deflect under the frame.  i would like to find one that i dont have to take off when I put on my snowplow.

Few more photos of the cab and the latches that hold it all closed. You can buy it part by part i think but you have to buy the instal kit for any one part and once you put the instal kit on you can not use the stock roof. It is a simple instal, with very few tools needed. Once instaled the windshield, rear window and roof come off with out needing tools and the doors are on Jeep styl hinges and can be used as half doors by removing the windows. As far as i know this cab is only made for Rhinos, it is all hard plastic and plexy glass but a small strip of vinal between the body and cab. The bed is still free to tilt. I have found that even on a cold day there is enuf heat coming up from behind the seats to take the chill out of the cab. - Curtiscab.com-

Remove your stock stone gaurds on the inside of your brakes. I got a rock in between the gaurd and rotor and bent alot of things i wish i had not. They hold mud and rocks in better than they keep them out. Cleaner brakes last longer. I took mine off and have not had a problem since. No grinding here. hope it helps.

Just incase anyone mounts a winch on the back hitch you need to be careful the heat from the stock tail pipe doesnt hit the winch. I know some one who melted their brand new warn winch the first day. To solve the problem i cut off the down spout. no problems here so far.

It cost around $2500 or so   but it is the power angle kit that cost alot, you can buy just the plow. Im in a wheelchair so it was worth it to have the power angel. The cab is a Curtis Cab its a great system for anyone who wants a complete closed in cab, after the first instal everything can be removed with out tools, the front windshield opens to vent or opens fully and comes with a wiper kit and the windows come off the doors so you can still run half doors. Ill post up some pictures of the cab as well. Curtiscab.com The cab was around $2800 if i  remember right, but well worth it.

I forgot to say the dents in the middle were my fault. the bolts that hold the plow to the lift frame have to be put in upside down or they hit when the blade trips. like an idiot i didnt read the manual, now i have dents.

I have seen a few post where people were talking about snowplows but noone seemed to know that there was a power angle on the market, so for thoes who care here it is.   I have had it for over 6 months and it seems to be as good as any other plow you can buy. It has a simple stich to raise, lower and angle, the only thing i noticed is depending on the side you have the angle piston it will not angle fully to that side. I have mine on the drivers side so it will angle all the way to the passengers side. It has 400lbs of down pressure, something i have not seen on another plow, comes in handy for back draging or hard packed snow. it also has locking pins to keep the blade from tripping so you can push loose gravel. Mounts in the front 2inch hitch and has three wire  connections.  In the pictures it looks like alot of stuff but it only looks that way.  I hope this works.  Its made by Blackline.  roll

Befor i got my 700, everytime I saw the add on TV I thought to my self, "damn, i need one of them." then one day I call one of the adds from the TV and thanked them for turning me on to Rhinos, and told them how much i loved my new 700 and proceeded to waist their time over the phone for more than 45 minutes (needless to say they were not happy and hung up on me with out even saying goodbye) Its a Rhino, an over grown ATV.  Read the warnings, roll the dice and take your risk.

You have to give Yamaha alot of credit thoe, sometimes it seems that it takes a long time for them to come out with something that gives the competion a run for their money but when they do they always bring something good to the table. For a longt time the only 4 stroke fourwheeler they had was the 350 warrior, then one day they show up with a 660 Raptor. I own a 2002 660 and i wouldnt trade it for anything.   Give them time, they have something in their back pocket.   Good things always come to thoes who wait.
