You carry this on your quad ? Jen .We were on the trails this morning at 5am till 830 ish just to beat the heat !! I just have a 6 pack cooler I carry with ice packs that seem to work for me

My aluminum trailer with two quads on it is well over 1,000 pounds and it has worked well. I bought it in 2007 and is still used today. Torsion axles are good, my camping trailer has it and it works well.

@mehim no nude/barely clothed photos please. I removed them from your last post.

This site lists stations that sell pure gas. (non-ethanol) https://www.pure-gas.org/

We rode here the day before the event. This is a DCNR state forest trail system. The story behind the name is miners would put their bottles of whiskey in the local springs to keep them cold until their shift was over. Part of the trail system is on old strip mines so some areas are barren, others are full forest.

yes, you are correct the ciggy socket is universal. Getting the hot and gnd wrong can be catastrophic. Getting the right hole is critical but I like the SAE "polarized connectors".

LOL NO !! Im an Led Zepplin guy or a George Strait Guy depending on my mood !!

Ice bath experienced!

I'll be watching !! Go Argentina !!

It's been a fun cup to watch where I could. Final today. Spain vs Argentina...Should be a great match to watch! Odds: https://mlsforums.com/worldcup/match.php?id=2026-07-19-spain-argentina

The piezoelectric coolers barely keep things cool but the portable fridge/freezers are compressor operated and can cool down to -4F. They're a lot more expensive than the coolers but much better, and to top it off they draw less current than the piezo coolers do.

yes I was packing for a day 80 mile day ride on Forman. So what ever will fit in the Moose. So small cooler with Milk (for My rum $ Milk after ride drink) and lunch. But I am looking at the Freeze dried stuff also to try.

Thats bad news, that should have been noisy running. Thanks for the update!

Rotella T4 is a good oil im using it in many air cooled small engines.

I like my 12v fridge/ freezer For packing stuff that needs to stay cold, Yes, they're expensive but far cheaper than ending up with spoiled food and warm beer.

Yep tongue weight should be around the same 10%. Tandem axles have a few advantages, like a lower deck height because you are using 2 smaller tires instead of one big one. But then you have 2 more tires to maintain. Deck over is the best use of space if you are going to side load. I love single axles, lite, easy to tow. Easy to move around. Just didn't work for me. I ran out of storage so enclosed when the best solution for me. Everyone's situation is different. Problem with any trailer, not just single axles is being over built, or buying too much trailer. The closer you can load a trailer to it's gvwr the better it will ride. Single axles will ride rougher in general, especially when empty, it doesn't have that second axle holding the first one down.

Personally I would get something with a manual trans like a kawasaki bayou for pulling at low speeds. Anything with a CVT trans, that is going to be hard on belts at those speeds.

Late to the party like always. So if your SxS is 10ft a 12 trailer will still not be enough for you to side load the atv. I started out with a 4x8 trailer for ATV, hated it. Could not see the trailer behind the vehicle. Bought a snowmobile trailer at auction for $100, Put new deck on it. Got another machine and started side loading it. But it was tight if either had larger tires. I have since moved on to a Thule enclosed trailer. Love it so much better. Tall enough to ride into, or for side x side. If we take the side by side we take one atv in the pickup bed. Otherwise it has room for 4 atvs. It is 8.5ft x 14ft. Aluminum. Very light, nice pulling trailer. You can move it around on the concrete by hand. It is aluminum, all of it. It is 20 years old and no signs of cracks or rot in it anywhere. Best part is, when we get home, atvs are already stored. LOL I prefer a lot of tongue weight, less chance of the trailer pushing the tow vehicle around. When you look at gvwr on a trailer you need to remember at least 10% should be tongue weight. So a trailer with 3500 gvwr, weighs 1500 pounds. Leaves 2000 pounds payload correct? actually not. 10% tongue weight would make payload 2350.

Did not know what a VW caddy was, googled iit and it looks like a small van, low to the ground should be easy to load, you could attach a winch inside and pull it in, or push it in, should work fine. Not sure if you can ride it in roof looks low.

I have the spot-x. It does text only but has an SOS emergency button. I have used it to contact friends back at camp when we were delayed back because we stopped to help with an accident. There was no cell coverage in the area.

A truck, sure...If I had the money for it 🙂 What I have is access to a VW Caddy. Did you push it or ride it inside the Astro?

We had a great showing on the world stage

Excellent discussion guys. You brought up a subject often overlooked. Some options : PLb's Personal Locator Beacon...are the go to emergency device that transmit signal and gps locator to SAR's.... Search and rescue,,,155.160MHz. That being said my friend got a HAM license and that was cheaper and reliable in wilderness especially since he could talk and not declare an emergency. Moreover, ham radio's can operate Simplex...direct transmission without need of infrastructure support. It’s important to note that emergency frequencies (there is a list of them) aren’t just for professional rescuers and emergency workers; they can also be used by ordinary citizens who are equipped with the appropriate radio equipment. Follow proper guidelines and protocols when using these frequencies to ensure that communication lines remain clear and efficient for all parties involved. Also in an emergency remember the rule of three....three fires, three flashes, three shots. And of course " dot-dot -dot dash -dash- dash dot -dot dot " (SOS signal) in the snow or on the ground visible from above.

Mini is only 10 x12 inches. it could be strapped to one of the racks or stuffed in a backpack to be hauled out and used when wanted.

I have "All Trails' It tracks me and shows trails even in mountains of Nevada when on foot. Plus it has an emergency communication$ feature that works from any remote area. I have seen it work with others. Damn Helicopter extractions are expensive! I think it would even work in my Hotel room..Never tried it.... LOL.

2-0 👌

Me too with my Twisted Tea's LOL

I’m getting ready to watch now! Let’s go USA!

Great Morning QC !! finishing up my work week then time to ride !!

It sounds like the starter cutout relay a little black box close to the battery, lights light up when the engine is running because it doesnt go through the relay ,power is generated in the engine. Thats why the pull start works generates own power to start the engine.

Welcome! If you can fix cars you can fix this, although modern cars are like rolling computers, the 88 LTF not so much.

Thank's Il hope This Community Will be able to help me fix my newly purchased LT-F 250 1988 2wd and help my self other Members with my mechanic knowledge as a car mechanic . Basic maybe the same but some Times There is few tweeks That we can miss 🤷😎✌🏻

WTF is this ??

Beautiful area, looks like some rough riding. Enjoy!

I have the Battery Tender on my 2 4x4 quads and my Sport quad is a kicker so no battery !!

I love those primitive trails. through the woods...Uninhibited fun!

Buckees has Non ethanol gas...But OMG it is a zoo...125 Pumps!

I think Battery Tender is the highest rated one i dont have one, been meaning to pick one up but my cheap Amazon and Temu ones just keep working.

I have seen it sold at various places, mainly local gas stations. In Renovo this place has it. Sorry, opposite, I am 58. Northcentral PA has smoother trails then where I live. Riding options are limited where I live now so we travel to ride. What we have here is usually rocky.

Yes ,that's the Name on mine -Just Google "Battery Tender"

Thats very possible but these things do get kind of honery with age, i always put the harder stuff off as a last resort, but would be good to check that and make sure things are moving properly. Good luck, keep us informed!

Very good! I would run the fresh oil for a bit just to get everything lubed up properly then change it again, wouldnt push it to hard, water and oil are hard on the internal engine componets.

Very nice sets of plastic, especially like the white, i dont see those very often.
