I have changed my mind about the reverse override.

I don't know why I am soo fascinated with it.

[QUOTE=Specta;3093929]Carlisle Black Rocks. I'm looking forward to them because they are mounted on the OE wheels. 
Looking forward to seeing what you come up with on these. I've seen some good reviews and comments about how they are supposed to be a more aggressive and better handing version of the ACT's.

I've had a set of ACTs and a set of ACT HDs and liked both sets but preferred the ACTs over the HDs just for the handling. The ACTs handled better than the HDs but the HDs are excellent snow tires.
Sitting next to each other you can sure see the similarities in the tread designs and I'm looking forward to putting a few miles on them.

I do enjoy riding this new machine.
And these new Carlisle Black Rocks seem to do OK too.

I was backing up this hill WOT with my favorite override button held in and got to this point and couldn't go any further.
I turned around and I shifted to into low an this what I had; EPS and check engine lights on. No EPS, no
speedo and no gear indicator and no ADC but the odometer did still work.
I shut it off and restarted it a couple of times and just headed back daown the canyon with the warning lights on.
Once I was to the bottom of the canyou I shut it off while I unlocked and opened the gate. When I started it back up
everything was back to normal.
I am now at 94.4 hrs and 876 miles.

I'd say you were just a little off camber
Can't deny the stability of the Polaris in situations like that though.

The problems have been quite minor but it would be nicer if they didn't exist. That was the third time the EPS
quit working but it always comes back a short time later.
The only real issue has been and intermittent ADC which to me isn't worth having fixed. It works all the time on
the rear wheels but the ADC seldom if ever works on the front wheels.
I would say that having the rear wheels lock up and slide down steep loose hills has made me a better rider.
