@Alex Fantastic! You fixed the add conundrum. It was really awful. Thank you so much. The forum is useable now.

Same here. Time to look elsewhere

I bought a Silent Rider muffler to add on the existing muffler. I haven’t had the chance to install it yet but they rave over how it makes them quieter. Got a couple of other issues to work on before I get it permanently installed. Best I can tell with it temporarily hanging there it takes some of the popping noise down a bit.

7:44 The inventor of the treadmill died at the age of 54. The inventor of gymnastics died at the age of 57. The world bodybuilding champion died at the age of 41. The best footballer in the world, Maradona, died at the age of 60. James Fuller Fixx, credited with helping start America's fitness revolution by popularizing running, died of a heart attack while jogging at age 52. However ... The Kentucky Fried Chicken inventor died at 94. Cigarette maker Charles Winston died at the age of 102. The inventor of opium died at the age of 116, not even of natural causes but in an earthquake. And, the Hennessey whiskey creator died at 98. How did smart people come to the conclusion that exercise prolongs life? The rabbit is always jumping up and down, but it lives for only two years, and the turtle, that doesn't exercise at all, lives for 200 years. Oh yes of course, Hugh Hefner died at 90 on the job ( or shortly thereafter) So in 2024 chill, stay cool, eat, drink and enjoy your life.

Dang I hope I never get that old. You old geezers……..wait dang it I am that old. How’d it go so fast?

Some of the newer models restrict speed when the seat belt is not buckled. Maybe try getting the seat belts corrected might help?

🤣

You beat me to that one. 1500lbs on a plastic bed. Nah.

My neighbor has a Tracker from bass pro shops. It is the quietest I’ve heard. You cannot hear them coming down the road. Riding in it it’s really quiet compared to my Tractor Supply Big Horn. My neighbor hood has mules, Lowe’s version, and big horns. The tracker is the quieter

So cut some metal squares from scrap or go to Lowe’s and pick up some metal sheets. Just like above rivet or bolt to add support to those areas that are cracked. The bigger area you cover the better. Do it from the bottom to make it look more professional. Probably not great to haul firewood in the plastic bed. You might also look into a metal sheet to cover and add support to the entire bed. My past job experience we “scabbed” vibration conveyors using the metal squares with great success.

If it’s anything like mine the connectors are kinda junky and don’t always make good contact. Reseat all concerned connectors and make sure they are contacting good. My 4wd wouldn’t engage, had 12vdc to the connector and 26.5 ohms on the front diff magnetic coil. It had flat pins in the male side of the connector so I gave a bit of a twist to them and it’s been working fine since. have you solved your overheating problem?

Thanks for that insight! Don’t know if mine needs any adjustment yet. Still haven’t taken it for a night time/early morning ride.

Yep that looks just like Tony’s remote receiver. The blue wire is the antenna.

There’s a YouTube video “Tony’s Tractors “ that has a video showing him wiring up a remote on his Bighorn 550. It’ll be practically the same or at least get you in the ballpark.
