I jumped over this big hump and hit a pine tree dead center.
Broke my front bumper in two places. Other than that just made me feel stupid. I`ll get over it but my bumper won`t.
If anyone has an extra laying around I`d be intrested in buying it.

dulie,
*you're lucky if that is all the front bumper. *http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/nervous.gif * usually the inner three brackets and the pipe get it also.

Yeah -- Paul's right...hits like those can turn out a lot worse than a broken piece of plastic. http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/exclamation.gif

You guys are right. I got lucky. It only bent the inner bracket a little. I straightened it out real easy. I was hill climbing so I did'nt have alot of speed.

Hi dulie, I did the same thing two weeks ago. I replaced my bumper from Ingles Performance for 50 bucks. Seems high for a piece of plastic but ya got a have it. I also took out my trailing arm and hood hinge, as well as the left front bracket. I guess I should of stopped before that tree tackled me. I screamed uneccesary roughness, but got no flag. *http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif
I got a spare bumper for an S.It is black. By the time you pay for the shipping from WI. , it would cost too much.
