Mark could it be when you go slow your not really getting any air through the rad causing your fan to constantly run and wearing it out prematurely.

Hey Ray... found out why i overheated there on the poker rally when i quadded with you and the wife and Neville and Nancy .....

it was the start of my rad fan going south.... remember it happened only once on the friday and then saturday i was fine.... well the next ride i did a week later was a little worse and then the last ride here this last weekend was the killer... Fan bit the bucket... gone... took it out early this week and replaced it... every thing fine now... thats my second fan to bite the dust in 11200 km... not bad....

Here I figured you liked us towing you

He has to go slow due to Rzr dust

I still can't believe you can put 11,000 Kms on a renny and it still has a frame. Must def be lady driven. I could never even get 4000 on mine before it was made into beer cans. But then again I had something like 696 RWHP in mine. :chicken:
696.347......

Just think how cool you would be in a new popo Mark....
no more canam jokes , no more break downs, no more RWHP, no
more roll overs ....
Get a nice CANDY apple red highlifter 1000.... No more "waiting for Mark".....
......
life would be sweet ... Like a box of chocolates.

no need to quote hp numbers, or other frivolous excuses for break downs or why you got towed. wouldn't have to drive so fast to keep up!!!!!! likely be able to ride rougher trails cross a few streams maybe even try some mud. lol

Possibly even have time to socialize and drink beer after a ride instead of pulling wrenches all night.

that is definitely a bonus, but ranger riders have to be prepared for that also. so I find out lol
I don't have a problem with pulling wrenches on my Commander but the chiropractor bills are crazy from that rough riding POS. lol

Cycle works said no test drive allowed.

I guess I just need to buy it and try it.


No wrenching.


Just a cold pop or two.

no idea! aftermarket shocks if you can find a deal? my ranger has similar problem shocks are overloaded at higher speeds, I have to go slower so I don't spill the beer! a bonus I guess lol. I don't really mind as i find I don't like the high speeds anymore. just like to get out and ride, and have a good time.
