And I don't think anyone needs to DIE from a mistake in judgement as you seem to do by your post. And just a FYI a 2500 Lb strap is only as good as the hook it has and its mounting point.

Your response ignores the fact that the load has to be tied down and if you don't you are stupid enough to need to die from an ATV crashing thru the cab. I use 4 each 2500 pound tie down on a 700 pound load. Even the old formula "Velocity squared X mass = energy" isn't going to make it that heavy. So the extra couple of hundred pounds of the Prowler just isn't an issue. Yeah, I watch Mythbusters just to see how wrong they are in their methods and conclusions. It's good TV, but scientific is isn't.

Fantastic, I have zero complaints so far. Only problem I have had is engine break actuator replaced under warranty (kawi part). From my experience, I have no problem recommending the V2 to anyone. I haven't done much as far as mods yet other than clutch springs and tires, 26 mudlite xtr's. The only other thing I would like to try is a different coolant so my fan will run less in the summer. By the way, is the coolant drained at the bottom of the water pump like on the H1? Never done it before, and I'm not sure how to drain all the coolant out.

The hose at the bottom of the radiator comes off, thats how i drain mine. I reccomend Engine Ice, it cut my fan time almost in half. You should drain the radiator, fill with water, run a few minutes, drain again, then add Engine Ice. You can run it as your main coolant, as it protects to -27F. I like it alot

one of the reasons your fan runs so much is cause of the winch. as i sure you have noticed the winch covers up half the radiator. mine runs alot but has only overheated one time and well my own fault cause the radiator was packed with mud and it was about 100 degrees out and my gf and i were riding it on a looser gravel road. and may i highly recommend a dynatek cdi. i swear i think i should become a salesman for them things lol [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] good luck with it though

damnit bear u r the most childish contankerous old fart i have ever knowen in my life. you are always looking for a fight which pushes good people away. we come on here for the same reason to all become more knowledgeable in our sport to make the right or better decisions. i think it is time for you to grow up and stop treating every situation as an opportunity to start an arguement. i agree with you about using a truck to haul an atv safely, but i do not agree with you as to how you try to get your point across.
