Seatbelts above 15mph. would probably be a wise choice. Especially off road. I used to have a jeep cj with no doors. It really doesn't take much to lose a passenger, in an off road situation. A lot less than you'd ever believe. Luckily I only lost one. Lesson learned, and it had a happy ending. But wow! It was a scary moment. 

As to defeating the mechanism. I would think that latching it behind your back should work.

Right I was posting this cause the sales people didnt know about it and it can make it seem like it was broken.  Just spreading the information.

Glad you only lost one I bet it was scary

Yes, I was talking, while checking the driver side view mirror. Looked over...gone. just like that. Grassy,  gently rolling hills, about 15mph. actually. No turns, just a gentle bump...gone. 

See the problem is, the grab handle is way up at a full arm's reach away. And there's absolutely nothing else to grab on the way out. We had a nervous laugh about it. He said the tire was coming right at him. But after that day. Seatbelts were mandatory for the passengers. The driver has a steering wheel to hang on to. 

Glad you figured out the seatbelt issue. I hate machines thinking for me. There's always something that makes you need it do what it doesn't want to do.

      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!

      hello, my BMS Stallion 600 is having accleration issues. the manual fails to show final gear oil diagrams very well... I have the owners manual and suspect issue is associated to transmission , I want to check the level of the gearoil. I located a drain plug (but not the fill plug nor dipstick). It will run - but wont exceede 2mph. Troubleshooting suggestions or comprehensive manual suggestions? Thanks

      Maybe members can post where they have obtained parts and service for their Hisun produced UTVs and ATVs, including the Coleman lines.  Maybe post the model you have, what you bought,  and how the products were quality wise.  Also if you had any shop service done, where (city & state) and how it worked out for you.

      When we first heard the noise, we immediately stopped driving it...at first we thought it might be a linkage issue, but after further inspection looks like the sound/jolting is coming from the rear diff. Took a video below...
      Anyone know what is creating the diff to skip/jump like this? We drained the diff oil and didn't look terrible, no metal.
      Other info that may be useful:
      1400 miles on it
      Recently tightened the E brake
      P.s. never posted on this forum before, let me know if the video does not work
