that's the issue my buddy with a polaris 800 hundred had with his guards,they filled up with mud and were hard to clean,he also poked one boot with guards on.From personal experience with atvs I would not buy those guards ... their is no protection for the outer boot. Turn the wheel to full lock and see how much room is between the guard and rim then have it filled with aluminium.. yamaha had this issue with the grizzly guards when they used warn to build them. They guarded the a arm but not the boots .. and they had no drains and just held rocks inside.
I have had more luck running no guards then I have had running aluminium guards
I just cancelled my order. Order them june 2nd...kept saying next month, next month, etc. Now, after seeing them, I don't want them. That's not a good design at all. Looks like I will fab some up.Jealous...spoke with dealer today.Ordered mine in June,supposed to be here in July,then Aug,then Sept,then Oct,now are telling me Nov 15.May not need them by then.Spoke with Weller Racing today,very nice people.Said if there is enough interest,they will be making higher clearance a-arms,full suspension lift kits with high clearance.Possible with +2 back & forth and/or out.Also...have the rear guards,they fill with mud,used a holesaw for a drain in the bottom,now they are fine.
Welp, so much for that idea...I sent in my order cancellation, and 6 hours later got a confirmation of shipment. Convenient. They wont take them back either without a restocking fee of 20%. So...anyone want to buy front and back a-arm guards lol. I can probably do 350$ shipped anywhere in the US for both sets. PM me.Glad the pics were helpful to you.
my dealer cancelled my overfender order,i think he was embarrassed with the backorder from Yamaha.Welp, so much for that idea...I sent in my order cancellation, and 6 hours later got a confirmation of shipment.

So it's only around 1/4" extra exposure than the stock plastic ones then. That may be worth it to e able to avoid anything coming up through the bottom and getting into both boots from that direction.Measured ft-3 1/2
No problem. Glad someone got to get out and ride some while I was working all weekend. Looking like it'll probably be a couple more weeks before I get the chance to get mine out. We're short handed at work and coming out of a month long maintenance shutdown so I've been getting to work quite a bit of non-voluntary OT. That's what sucks about living in town, I have to load it up and go somewhere to ride. My parents live out in the sticks and can just jump in their Rhino and cruise backroads for an hour or so in the evening if they want.Mimeeks3 the pic I posted is with the wheel cut all the was. The measurement is 4" if taken as in your pic. I personally think the are a big plus. Was away sorry for not answering sooner wa at Hatfield Mccoy trail last 4 days.
