ATVOBSESSION

A day after riding in the desert (San Rafael Swell), we drove West toward the Paiute trail and had our first snow ride. http://www.xmission.com/~jamesk/606-1.jpg http://www.xmission.com/~jamesk/606-2.jpg http://www.xmission.com/~jamesk/606-3.jpg The above picture is the new 606 Trail right next to J...

Yup! Danged near. In the end, Brute Force strength came through!

Got it off (finally). Damned near threw my back out trying to put as much torque on that bolt as humanly possible. I used another wrench in the holder hole to keep the pulley from moving. Once I had the pulley off, I had to pry under the spring to force the belt remnants out. New belt installed, swi...

Help! I just pulled the CVT cover off to replace my belt and I'm finding there's old belt shrapnel still wrapped around the spline on the rear most pulley. I've been unable to budge the bolt to remove that pulley (turns the crank) to remove the old belt components. Here are a few photos to illustrat...

If the economy improves, the wife has given me the "GO" to start shopping for either a new Brute Force, or the new Sportsman 850!

thats a great set up did you build it yourself? You got to be ready for some real good trips with that. We just finished riding the San Rafael Swell (in Utah), and we're now camped at Winkleman's RV (Hoovers) just outside Marysvale. Tomorrow we get in our last ride on the Paiute until June 2009! (i...

Since it's almost all fiber glass, I'm guessing less than 200 pounds empty.

EigerMike wrote:nice set up! does only the tent fit inside the trailer?

No, in fact the tent takes very little room and I can easily fit two standard sized coolers, extra water, propane, etc.

Not quite yet. I'm still trying to figure out where to mount the Dish Network Sat. dish and receiver!

well what a bitch due to the stock market fall i lost my job today so looks like my quad will be sitting in the garge for a while at least i can enjoy all your guys pictures. If you don't mind me prying, how did the stock market cause your employer to dump employees? Who do you work for, or what in...

After the snow and rain passed, I decided that I'd been sitting inside long enough, so I went out cleaned up the ATV, took the trailer out and machined a mount for my new Kolpin 4gal. flat fuel pack. Not bad, eh? http://www.xmission.com/~jamesk/btrailer1.jpg http://www.xmission.com/~jamesk/btrailer2...

No issues for me. I ordered 12 x tires for our 3 ATV's and had no issues. Bought them last year and I already need to replace the tires and rims on my Brute Force 750i! :shock: I'm hoping to get the ITP SS (Black) rims with either Maxxis or Bighorn tires in a slightly larger size than the stock (OEM...

How did you get over to behind the capitol? I was under the impression that when you get on top of the ridge where you cut over to bountiful peak that road going south crossed into a watershed that is gated? http://local.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=40.929467,-111.788592&spn=0.021724,0.037594&t=h&z=15 is...
