'99 Kawasaki Bayou 220. Bought it new in August of '98, and it is used mostly just for hauling deer out of the woods. It has hauled out tons of deer, and one time 3 at once. One on the front and 2 on the rear. I like it's small size as it allows me to snake through the woods where the big machines cannot.

 

Other than normal maintenance and batteries, I have only had to clean out the carburetor one time over the years. I put an inline gas filter in it after that, and never a problem since. She is an oldie, but a goody.

 

Here are a couple shots of it when I was turkey scouting a few weeks back.

Im probably going to get something similar to this soon. Sold the Polaris, it needed a lot of work done and it just wasn't worth spending the money on. I like the smaller utility atvs. I've owned a recon, a timberwolf, and a Suzuki Ozark. Probably get another recon, looking for one with electric shift. I like the smaller size being able to get in tight spaces easier and maneuver better. Most are pretty peppy, just lack top end speed but about 45-50 is probably as fast as they can safely handle anyway. The light weight makes them feel pretty sporty too and helps if you get stuck, just get off and push it out.

2014 Polaris Ranger 800 LE ... It's still stock, but I do have a few toys on my Christmas list.

 

She's getting a 4500# front winch, when she goes in for her first service ... Anything you think might be cool to do with it, shoot me a link in a PM.

Here are some pics of my Kawasaki KFX700's. Both are far from stock. The red one is a 715cc with custom cams, a 40-shot of nitrous, and a +8" extended swing arm among many other mods. The blue one has a built motor as well, just not as aggressive. I also have 2 more that I just picked up to build up for trails because these 2 mostly ride only sand with the occasion trip to the sand drags, grass drags, or ice drags.

This is my 2011 Honda Foreman. Simply put, this is a great work horse. It has hauled home many loads of firewood, taken me trail riding, and on hunting trips. It might not be the smoothest ride out there with the solid rear axle, but I love this machine.

It has the factory windshield, 4000lb Warn Vantage winch, Aluminum under armor (with stick guards), QuadBoss deluxe rear seat, both rear/front bumpers have been LineX'ed, Garmin GPS (with RAM mount), and Kenda Bear Claw tires. I love this time of the year the best as it allows me to spend time on the back of this bike hunting and firewood cutting.

Here is a workhorse 85 250ES Big Red.

Spent 20 years on a cotton farm before I got it from my grandfather. The kids think it is cool because I have pictures of me and my brother on it when we were about 5 yrs old; It was in a little better shape back then. Never been in the motor. Still runs like a champ.

    • Question @diyer2 on this line if you please. Are you saying the shudder is the system turning on and off at the frequency of the shudder? Guess I'm asking if you are saying you have seen it do this with the bi-direction scan tool in graph mode? If so have you been able to discern the 'trigger'. Something is telling to cycle rapidly.    My truck just started doing this recently. 197K on the clock. My response has been M5 anything under 55 mph. I treat it like a lugging stick shift. Gear down and let it spin a bit. Engauge M5, then tow mode and then M6 lets the trans stay in 5th but the AFM is active. Smooth like Skippy.    My thought was that as a machine ages the friction gets lower and as the system is load based, the lower friction would allow it to turn on at ever lower rpm until it reaches the lugging point. And yes I am ignorant of any minimum rpm requirement for the system. If you know that would be useful information.    As you know I run a Scan-Gauge II which allows me to watch the On/Off of the signal to the VLOM. While in the shudder mode I'm not seeing is cycle at that frequency or at all for that matter outside the triggers @newdude posted a few years back. Now is it possible that the refresh rate isn't fast enough to catch it? Maybe. It is why I asked my first question about graphing and trigging parameter.     As we have observed from members here the failure point is all over the map miles wise as you note yourself in your opening post. That by itself begs a few questions like fellows that comment on these lifters failing even after the system has been disabled. Long after. 😬   https://www.enginelabs.com/news/tech-tips-replacing-ls-active-fuel-management-lifters-with-melling/   The Gen5 lifters operate the same as the LS versions. In fact they are the same lifter.    https://www.enginelabs.com/tech-stories/sorting-out-gen-v-lt-lifter-failure-with-a-simple-valvetrain-fix/        
    • UPDATE 2: Steering wheel control backlights and control of the cluster can supposedly be achieved by adding a wire to pin 20 of the cluster and tapping it to pin 2 of the main clock spring harness. I'm going to give it a shot - will update  
    • GM Global A pickups 2019-2022 can do OTA programming for the radio.  GM VIP (GM Global B) can do OTAs for almost every module on board.  So a 2022.5 and newer pickup can do OTAs for recalls like the 2.7 fuel flow recall.  EVs get OTAs that improve one pedal driving, radio issues, HVAC issues, updated battery management software, etc.     So age of the vehicle/what GM electrical platform its on will alter what amount of updates can be pushed on OTAs.  
    • Thank You.   So far my new ride is making me look like a genius for going with the 3.0L, as my first fuel refill occurred over three weeks from when I took delivery.  This engine combination is very amazing.  So far no issues and had not done a regen yet.
    • I am curious as to how much fluid you put back in the transmission ( assuming you had replaced the filter to compare to my findings ) and then went through the process of warming up the trans before pulling the check plug to drain out the excess and if you measured how much came back out.    I just found it surprising that some claimed a certain amount less fluid being put in and then draining some back out. The attitude of the truck as per if the surface is level and how the trucks stance is would make quite a difference since the check plug is right at the front of the transmission.
