Thanks Kurt! That red one on the rock...wow what a rock crawling machine! Lol that was the same day the tree kicker/rock sider on the right side took a hard hit and came loose. Since then I took the right side of the plastics off exposing the frame rail and drilled all the way through where the three self taping screws where in the mounting tabs for the tree kickers. Ran a bolt all the way through. Now it can't come off. Hine sight though it's so solid now I wonder if the same thing occurred that knocked it off in the first place happened again I guess there's a possibility it could bend something. If the left side ever comes off I'll do the same to it.  Any new products in he works for the 450? Front rack?? Skid plates??? Kymco has full set of skids now but they are pricey. 600 some dollars! Maybe I'll get that slim roof and windshield like on yours one of these days. Perhaps after the baby gets here in the next three weeks! Christmas times a coming right!
Congrats on the soon to come new addition.  It's going to be life changing.  I'm sure you'll be spending your extra money on diapers instead of accessories though..lol.

I started ORBA Jan. 2016 which was a few months before my son was born, with the intentions of having something to carry onto my son when he gets older if he's interested. Needless to say he's been there for every step of this start up business, whether it be him sleeping on the seat of my Kymco while I box accessories up,  or him tossing all the nuts and bolts everywhere while I am trying to assemble doors. Wouldn't change it for the world.

Love the rock sliders.
Thanks man, we need to get some bumpers and a roof on that rig. I'm also a rep for Pacific Eagle UTV enclosures so let me know when you're ready for a windshield for your UXV450i and I can get you a better deal on them.

Here is a link to the windshields and enclosures.

Where does the front bumper bolt to the frame?
Here is a video I did awhile back on how it attaches. We've made it super simple.

They all look great you do good work. Any plans for products for the 700?

Thanks man, if Kymco could tell me they would be producing that vehicle for another 5 years, I probably would, but I would imagine a redesign is in store for them being that the 500/700 hasn't changed in almost ten yrs.

I want to take the time to thank all of our customers on here. As most of you know ORBA takes a lot of pride manufacturing accessories for the Kymco UXV 450i and Arctic Cats. A lot of customers have sent in photos of their 450's that I would like to share on here. Thanks again and I look forward to continuing to develop accessories for future Kymco models.

The above article should be interesting to this group now that Textron is Arctic Cat, Kymco may suffer as Textron has it's own motor division, I wonder  if they will make the switch.
From my view, Kymco will be just fine as I'm sure they are cash positive.  In fact im surprised Kymco didn't buy out Arctic Cat... that being said,  I think this will give Kymco more time to work on coming out with more of their own products and gain more share of the market.  We must remember their pride and glory is the worldwide scooter industry anyways, which probably makes up 90% off their revs anyways. Of course all IMO.

Thanks and I really like the products you are producing
I appreciate it! Let me know when I can help!

By the way to all of the other forum members,  I heard that Kymco actually produces most of the Arctic Cat Wildcat Trail. I would like to think Kymco will be coming out with a similar model soon. We shall see!

Hello
doing my research here and I don't understand the difference in the LE and Base model other than winch is that it?

I've read a few post on power here I want to try and ask it a different way, when stop on a hill or up against an obstacle will you spin the tires and lose traction or will it power out and not move like the Honda pioneer dose? I am concerned because of the high elevation I ride at. everything else seams to fit my needs perfectly
It tractors up hills no problem,  especially when you put it in low gear.

We sell Kymco and have no issues getting parts.  Dealers are pushing the Cf Motos more lately since they have better margins.  I cannot wait until Kymco comes out with a sport sxs and really starts to gain some momentum in the industry.

Sounds like these dealers need to be held accountable for their negligence when prepping and selling. Probably too busy playing on their damn cell phones. Can't say that I have any grinding noise yet..

At our shop here in Missouri, we had so much trouble selling the 700 because of the bucket seats, that we quit stocking them and only stocked the 450. The bench seat is way more family friendly like you stated.

Same problem here and I think the only complaint for a lot of others as well. I've just gotten use to giving it a little throttle Before switching gears. I have read on the Kymco Mudders Facebook page that some people have taken the shifter spring out to allow it to shift easier.
