| Right now I'm running 18 gram weights. I spoke with James yesterday and he said I would probable be more happy with 16 gram weights. I'm also running a purple spring. I'm running 28" zillas and ride mud rocks trails just about everything. | |

| I have the JBS sheave with 16g weights with purple spring on my Grizzly 550. Awesome performance..best mod I have done yet. I use 26' bighorns and 27" Zillas. James also sent me 14g weights and gold spring to try out but I haven't had a chance to try that yet. I ride a lot of every type of terrain. I am not a strict mudder. Couldn't thank James enough. Great guy to deal with. | |

| My JBS setup is 16 gr. gold spring, got it installed and was able to ride it in my yard to check it out and then major shoulder surgery so I will be on the mend all summer but looking forward to letting it rip someday soon. I am running 27 in. mudlite XTRs.

| I have a gold spring and 18 g weights with 27" `Zillas mounted on ITP SS108 for my 700. Factory wheels, tires, and spring with 12G weights on the 450
I might have to check out the 16g set for the 700. Any thoughts on what or how much of a difference a guy might see? | |

| I'm running 16 gram weights, Gold spring and a 1.2mm shim in mine. I know I lost some of the top end but I can still top out at 64 mph according to my speedo with 28" zillas. But I like my set-up for mud I can get the tires turning with ease in anything I've had it since I installed my sheave. | |

| I liked it well enough on my 700 I ordered another one for my wifes 450. I think It made more of an improvment on the 450. | |

| the lower the weight the higher the rpms and with the higher rpms you will be in the power range more but if you like just cruising you wouldnt want lighter weights...its all about your ridn style..if your real aggressive and dont mind higher rpms do the lighter weights you will love it | |

| Per recommendation from James, I'm running a JBS Sheave with 16g weights with purple spring on my Grizzly 700 and I have 26.5" Pit Bull Growlers. They're 8 ply, heavy tires that work awesome. The JBS Kit has made that weight seem to disappear! I love this kit! | |

| I've put a about 350 miles on my current set up, and am quite happy. 16g and orange spring. Even with my 26x10x14 (x4) Bajacross' I can get the speedo to 70 mph banging off the limiter. | |
