Hey, puddding!
I have a 99' Honda 300 4x4 that they called a New Zealand Special at the dealer here in Canada. It came with a speedo, hourmeter, a more aggressive tire tread on the back and a fan. I have never seen the fan come on since it was new and couldn't figure out why there was a fan on it. Now that you have described the work they do with them, I can see why. Nice to here from someone from another country. Good quading.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

I talked to my brother on Labor Day, and he either saw it on video, or in person down in Florida. A Quest, or was it a Traxter?, can't remember. But anyways they hooked it up to a semi-tractor with a guy in the cab shadowing the brakes, and it was pulling it, and then they hooked up another semi-tractor, and it pulled both of them! They weren't hooked up to trailers, but still that is a lot of weight to pull!

 

The biggest thing I have pulled was a single axle wheat truck that would not start out of the shed. I have the hitch hopper 2 X 2 receiver hitch from Cabelas on my 2001 Sportsman 500 H.O. and love it. Build my own hitch bars for different *****, situations, etc.

Well the heaviest thing I have pulled so far is a sled with 2 kids (300 lbs.) on it. Over the hills and through the woods, without snow...just on grass and dirt. Today I went up a really really steep hill and it made it with no problem, but I was SCARED. hahaha but it was fun

 

Just wanted to post a photo of the Hitch Hopper tow hitch I ordered from Cabela's:
Comes in very handy when you need to tow a trailer that uses a ball hitch-just remove the ball hitch from your truck's reciever and out it in the atv's reciever. With my Kodiak you have to remove the stock hitch and the Hitch Hopper just bolts into the 3 existing holes. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

We have a 99 Suzuki Quadmaster. We also have a 18' flatbed car carrier. I have on more than once occasion pulled this car carrier in high range (automatic tranny) 2-wheel drive. We had to have the trailer weighed to get plates and it weighs 1880 pounds. I think that is pretty good to pull it in 2-wheel drive, High range. I backed it up a steep gravel hill with ease... Halfway up I did have to throw the lever into 4-wheel drive though!
