Hey guys, new to UTV's, finally broke down and bought a Kawasaki Mule 2510 4x4 w/ high/low range. Probably tops out at 15 mph but you can pull stumps with it in low. I love the utility of it, you wont see ANY chrome on mine...and no fancy rims. This is a workhorse and won't be any trailer queen. ;)

Am from central Minnesota in the heart of the lakes area, lots of old logging roads up north to explore and enjoy, especially this time of year!

I will, but I noticed that in my initial post that I inadvertantly omitted that it was a 1997. No trailer queen, lots of bumps and bruises. Still starts and runs and drives great, enough so that I just purchased a new 72" steel plow and winch for this winter.

I am in the process of deciding if I want to fabricate a plow mount or just spend the $150 and buy a pre made. Anyone here that has done it and if so, for this specific model?

Thanks for the welcome, nice job on the site, btw!!!

      My Odes Dominator 800 bogs down when it gets to 25mph
      By Bjabbarw
      My 2021 Odes Dominator 800 bogs down at 25mph and won’t go over that speed. I have changed the fuel pump and it still does the same, it runs and idles fine, it has great reverse speed, but it won’t accelerate past 25mph. Any Ideas?

      Haven't got a side by side yet, but have been shopping.   
      Any advice welcome & I am on a limited budget, so haven't decided yet on new or used.

      I just purchased a used 2023 Massimo warrior UTV SxS 1000mx with 600 miles on it. I didn't even get a full day of riding and the driver's side rear axle broke. I'm pretty sure it was already going bad because we would hear a noise once in a while. I'm wondering if anyone else has had problems with theirs. Also looking for places to buy accessories.

      Hisun Sector e1 Battery replacement: any tips?
      By didgeridoo
      Hello, All!  I've decided to replace the traction batteries in my 2018 Sector E1 with a 48V Lithium set. They may be expensive, but I figure the Discovery Dry Cell are, too. I am not looking for the max driving range, as I have never received near the brochured range to begin with, but a good mix of charge/ get work done/ charge is what I am expecting.
      I have settled on the 48V EAGL kit from bigbattery dot com. Each battery pack provides 30Ah. The kit ships with a charger, as well. The packs would be physically connected in parallel (using a busbar) to one another, maintaining the 48V voltage, but together would be able to provide the amp draw the buggy pulls when going up hill or towing a rake (rated 320 max continuous Amps). This is in comparison to the serial connection the eight 6V lead batteries. Each of the EAGL batteries looks to have its own BMS; am I correct in thinking I will have to use their included charger rather than (simply) changing the onboard charger to lithium mode? The chemistry of the pack is LiFe PO4, for what it's worth.  I haven't torn anything apart yet (to diagram), so  I am not sure how the dash will interpret the AMP draw, but the kit I am looking at includes a dash mounted charge indicator.
      If anyone has completed a similar conversion, do you have any tips? Specifically, how did you remove the original batteries, and how did you secure the new ones? I am guessing that almost any change from the stock batteries would involve at least some modifications. Any tips would be appreciated, especially things I may have failed to consider. Thanks!
