Local offroad park (General Sam's) was pretty muddy after a long weekend of rain. Got to really see what the XP's could do in the mud Overall they were unstoppable in the mud - with stock tires! Also got the 550 airborn over some jumps. very very fun.

Got the 850 stuck, went to use the winch....'out' button works but not 'in'...on the bike or the remote.....so that sucks....ended up pulling it out w/a strap on the 550.....got her home, cleaned off, went to try the winch....and guess what, it works no problem

Is there a certain spot on the winch or the switch that can impede the circuit? Can't figure out why it worked after cleaning off.....it was packed with mud but didn't figure that would cause it to not even click/pull in.....? Any thoughts?

The switch can be touchy. I had to replace one so far. Other than that the Warns have been good.

Awesome pictures! I really like seeing photos of people playing with their machines. I was also impressed with the stock tires through mud when I rode in northern Wisconsin.

Bummer about the winch...thankfully I haven't experienced that issue. I look forward to what others might have to say about the winch problem.

Stealth.....Those stock tires sure do suck for mud. I don't go in anything too nasty anymore. Not until I get rid of the stock rubber. Just can't trust them. They pack with crap within seconds and you sit and spin. You have to hit it with enough speed and be spinning to get rid of the slop between the treads. Clay of any kind and stock tires are not compatible. -Lookin' forward to the 27" Pitbull Growlers when they come out in the fall.

Sounds like you had a blast though. Not sure on your winch. I had a slight issue like you describe....Pull out all the rope then shut the machine down and restarted...winch started working again with the drive lever engauged.

They look so pretty dirty........

Awesome pics...on the winch, maybe the relay was wet???
