That's right waiting for a new one ... Or just stay on the Rzr... I can't wait to ride again with everybody ....

I can say Our trip to picket was by far one of my most favorite, great place to ride and it was my last ride with my friend Mason Thomas, thanks for the pics and bringing back great memories

I was asked to go there for over a year. Finally made it and looking forward to going again.

Great weekend with some AWESOME people!!! Glad you finally took me up on the invite! I know you are. Looking forward to the next one!!!

Thanks for the pics Les. Looks like a great place.

POPO PULLER

Ya my water pump seal gave out and I received a interesting very quick one hour tow with the popo puller back to camp. Everyone was asking me how the ride was. Once we started. We lost the rest of the group following. They never even saw our lights and it was dark.

Did they find out if the impeller shaft broke?

I don't know. The extent. But got the word today that it's covered under warranty. It was definitely leaking out the weep hole. I put a gallon of antifreeze in it once I got it cleaned up. And that didn't top it off. Also found the hose to the overflow resevoir had come off at the radiator neck. When I started it antifreeze just poured out the weep hole. Dealer said its very common. The weep hole is a direct route to the water pump and oil pump seals and lets mud,water, and dust get in between the two seals and wipes them out over time and the more mud and water you go through the quicker it wears the seals out. But they have to pull the hole engine,transmission to do the work. So expensive repair for a few seals and a bad design as far as weep hole location.
