07Rhino..............</p> Looking forward to your contributions...Like Onfoot, I too am quite content to poke along in my 900- Primarily due to the load hauling useage it is mainly is used forin the warmer season and snow pushing in the winter.Being mechanically competant but intellectually...

Just reported on the local TV that there was forestfire smoke in Whitehorse..Hope all is well in your vicinity. BTW its nice to see some of these kids getting a chance.. My hat is off to you and your family.</p>

Sorry Tommy.....Can't speak COONASS and can't find a Coonass/english dictionary any where. Was a pooter installer/fixer for 40 years before retiring last July. Worked on everything from them big ole IBM mechanical beasts to modern day high speed multi-blade servers and just about everything in...

Tommy..The trick is to run the main wire for the winch from the battery through the relay (solonoid) contactor. That way the ignition system only picks the solonoid (very low current draw). the voltage is supplied to the winch only when the solonoid is picked. You could also put a switch in...

1.........Guess this explains Tommys' battery problem a while back. I always like to hear the explanation for a problem that was reported.</p> </p> 2..... Winches and other add ons that draw lots of amps, in my opinion, should be wired through a relay (solenoid) that picks when the key is in...

Re: 4th of July I would like to echo ONFOOTs' sentiment.Being in the Ottawa area myself, on Canada Day July 1st we get to enjoy an all day party on Parliament Hill that includes live performances by numerous acts, an arial performance by the Canadian ForcesSnowbirds jets and topped off with a...

.................</p> Having been raised on a dairy farm close to the Quebec/Vermont border, I can certainly appreciate the aggravation the excess rain in these parts is having on the annual haying season. Also the lack of sunshine and heat is having an adverse affect on the local corn...

One of my neighbours has a 900 VStar. Georgeous machine. If I was in the market for a sicle, that would be on my short list for sure. Another one has a Harley road king. Nice machine but other than the exclusiveness of it being a HOG, I think I'd prefer to be riding a nipper if I was a couple...

Interesting...must be a bunch a dem swamp bikers lookin for some relief from the southern heat. There were 4 hogs at the local gas station with 2 Louisiana and 2 Arkansas plates. Said they were headin fer Newfoundland, but when they left they took the TransCanada heading west. Maybe they were...

Nice bit of metal manipulation there..You do good work.</p>

Watched the Clint Eastwood movie GRAN TORINO last night,,,had not seen it before,,,It seemed appropriate for aFathersDay event in an unconventional sort of way....Highly recommend it for any Grumpy ole granpa's out there...Best movie I've seen inyears.</p>

TWO GUNS....</p> I wasn't aware of the the pulling against the winch line as you describe, but it makes perfect sense when I think about it. You saved me a winch at some point down the road...THANKS</p>

Driving in a straight line over pavement for a short distance will have minimal effect on wear and tear. The problem with 4X4 on pavement comes when making turns. Drivetrain lock up (binding) can occur due to the front wheels and back wheels turning at the same rpm through a different radius...

ZEN26..</p> The mount is attached with the 4 bolts at the front into the "bumper" and 2 bolts at the rear that are at the front of the skid plate. I'm not familiar with the fisher mount but hope this helps in your fabricating.</p>

ZEN26..........</p> Its self contained. Unfortunately the mounting portion is currently on my Backyard Buddy hyd lift with a lot of other stuff. Will get a pic of it and the mount on the front of RTV and post later.</p>

Aquired the unit late this past winter so didn't get the opportunity to try it out in heavy conditions. March was a light snowfall month this year which is highly unusual. We usually get some pretty heavy dumps that time of year but not this year. I did get to push some heavy wet stuffbut it was...

If you don't already have the Kubota heavy duty front coil springs on your unit, you should get some. The 80inch Blizzard which is similiar to what you have is what I have on mine and along with the cab weight, without the hd springs the front does a squat when the blde is lifted. The springs...

Onfoot....................</p> Not sure how close the nearest Princess Auto is to your location but their current eastern flyer (east of Manitoba) has a towable6.5hp 2inch capacity chipper listed for 649.99. Just thought I'd pass it on.</p>

Welcome Lucas.....Can't beat a Kubota diesel ...Got a 900 myself with a BLIZZARD plow. There are several suppliers out there of plow attachments for the RTV...Do a GOOGLE search on Blizzard, KANLAN, CURTIS to name a few. The RTV is a brute when it comes to snow pushing. There is also snowblower...

Thought this would be the appropriate thread to advise that .........</p> The warmest spot (of all the automatic reporting stations) in Canada today was ......................TA...DA.....Home of Onfoot...Whitehorse Yukon..</p>
