Crocket Good looking out on winch mount I'll check that out now. Yeah with yours being a manual shift it should be no problem riding a wheelie(lucky Dogg) I believe mine got something in the gearing holding it back in ESP it's just predetermined shift points so no real control like the rancher esp (rancher will almost ride a wheelie it will raise up about 4 inches from 1st to 2nd high rev) but it does go a lot faster(Rubicon) in esp 61mph I put 26 mudlites on it but haven't had the time to test it (I work to much during the week) 26 inch tires hurt the rancher very badly.

Mudslinger,
How do you like the mudlites? My next purchase, after the winch, is going to be different tires. I have heard good things about those and I'm also thinking about going up to a 26". I've got 25" gators on my 300. I like them in mud, but that's about it. They are very heavy and don't ride very well.

CrBlick - Do yourself a favor and get it without the GPS. Get a good hand held one and mount it. You will find a lot more uses for it when you can take it off. Besides, (I won't say break down since it is a Honda) if you run out of gas, etc., and really need one to get you back to the truck, the factory one will not help one bit. You're going to have to leave the bike and gps. Garmin has some great hand held ones. For some extra fun with the hand held, go to geocaching.com. Great sport also.

Crocket The mudlites are a great tire but there still a mud tire. I've got 26" tires and on the rancher they took a lot of power away from top end. They ride a little rougher than stock but I love the mud so I can sacrifice them things to be able to go threw about anything muddy. snowy. or icy. My friend has got 25 mudlites and they didn't affect his at all but he wishes he would of got the 26" because I can go threw so much more(on 26" that inch is all tread )and I'm always pulling him out.
