just waiting for some more LEDs and lenses of the correct value to put in my latest Project, this ought to out shine the stock over head light. Just hope it doesn't get too hot.

Trying to stay warm!

rocmoc n AZ/Mexico

Hi Mike,

Is that really a big problem in AZ, Right now, It's snowing here, as I sit watching TV from my recliner, all covered up with an electric blanket and shawl around my shoulders and computer on my lap. :) What a life

Next big project will to tear out my dash and put in an aluminum one with different gages and all switches in nice clean rows. I will model it on the computer first until I like how it looks and go from there. It will be designed to hinge so it can be opened up from inside the cab. Its awfull to get at and see everything clearly from under the hood. I will probably add some gages too like oil temp, exhaust temp, air tank pressure. I will also probably put in a row or two of LED lights with each one hooked to the fused side of each fuse so if one goes, I will see it right away and anything else I can moniter. Wife wants some doored cubbys to put things in. Maybe a heart moniter for my wife for when I hot rod it like we were doing at the last Jamboree.

PS; almost rolled it the other day. Wife said " DON'T YOU KNOW YOUR FRONT LEFT WHEEL IS ABOUT 4 FEET OFF THE GROUND? "

You should have told her not to worry unless the left rear wheel also was 4 feet off the ground.........

      I heard there's several off road festivals out that way. One or two post apocalyptic, the rest just rev and run. Anyone know a good one that offers camping? Any advice for out of state people like hauling, legality, and where to stay?
      Ideally me and the missus would be down for camping out and setting up shop somewhere nearby. That way we can just wake up, load up, and ride.

      I just purchased a Massimo MSU500 and no manual came with it so I have some questions. looking for part #'s and availability of basics like spark plug air and fuel filter. What is the valve adjustment specifications? 
        Is there a fuel drain? It's been sitting, low mileage but I want to drain out the old fuel and put fresh.

      I bought this SxS brand new.  A couple of years after I bought it, I became disabled.  Thus it has only 47 miles and around 16 hours of use.  I have no need to keep the SxS.  I am in Foley, Alabama.  It is very hard for me to get in out of the Challenger.  I would like to sell the set, 2019 Challenger 400, trailer and uninstalled winch (this was bought brand new as well, someone was supposed to help this newbie install and we never got around to doing this). I want  $6500 for the whole set OBO (Serious offers only).

      Just received delivery of a 2024 AMP Pro.  Thought I'd start a thread with my impressions as I use it and learn more.  There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of real-world usage information out there on this model.  Hope this will help others as they research.
      Intended Use Cases
      Fire mitigation / slash removal from a 5 acre forested and well-gamble-oaked property.  The previous owners thought as much about fire mitigation as I do about fashion: not much. Snow removal Stump pulling General hauling (rock, lumber, etc.) Weimaraner energy depletion.  Wasn't an original use case, but a nice added bonus.  Experiences So Far
      Wasn't impressed that two of the bumpers on the underside of the bed where it sits upon the frame were missing.  The metal on metal contact has damaged the powder coating and the frame.  I expect a little better QC.
      I've only put a few hours on it, so not a ton to report on usage.  It isn't quiet; it's silent.  I can't even detect an electric note from the motor. I removed (and subsequently replaced) the motor cover noticed that the motor is German and made by Schambuller.  The motor controller is Italian and made by Dana TM4.  Given the operating specs of both I found on the web, I suspect both are higher quality than the previous Navitas (which is supposed to be decent).  The motor is rated at 25 hp and 71.5 lb-ft of torque.  It feels very powerful.  All the torque is delivered instantly, if desired.
      The bed is huge and has an electric dump as standard.  Great feature but would like it to go up a bit more.  Probably not feasible from an engineering perspective, but I want and I need ;).
      Power steering is nice, but vague.  Probably common to many UTVs, but I am accustomed to more direct results from input.  Plan early and plan often.
      In our first full day of usage, we hauled about 1/2 as much slash as the entire rest of the year when I was doing it by hand cart.  I may get fatter, but I'll also get more done.  After a few days of usage, the battery meter has gone down by 1/10th. 
      Until next time...

      Bought my 2009 Yamaha Rhino, (fuel injected of course), recently from the original owner. Only had 500 miles and 70hrs. Starts reliably, however, it will not idle but about 50% of the time. Also, when driving slow in low or high, that is to say, relatively low rpms and below about 10 mph, it bucks and almost wants to die..... not smooth at all. However, at speed (say 12-15 mph or more) it runs very well, like it should. Any ideas?
