P500 2015 P500

[Chuckerbird]

Got a new to me '15 P500. 300 miles, 31 hr's. Had the Honda hard roof and the cargo tray. I've added the winch, windshield, tusk rear window, Cabelas UTV storage, and a ATV fender storage pouch.
Really enjoying it. Hopefully will draw a deer tag, and will try her out this fall.

Thanks. Tires and maybe wheels are in the future.

Tires and wheels are the first thing I did. Definatly the biggest improvement in looks and function. Also unhook that sway bar while your at it.

I'm thinking of getting the tusk rear window like yours. Just curios how much air flow it will cut out on those hot summer rides at Windrock. Its already plenty hot but would love to eliminate some dust.

I've only gone on one short run with it on. Seems to slow down the airflow and really helps with the dust. I put the tip out front windshield on and haven't used the tip out option yet. Maybe next trip,the weather is finally starting to warm up around here.

I picked up a 2015, it had lower hours and miles. Freed up money for accessories. I have a pile of boxes growing in the garage and more on the way.

 

[Chuckerbird]

I agree about freeing up money for accessories.
I'm looking at the Sedona Rock-A-Billy tires and the STI HD Headlock Wheel.
But since I didn't draw a deer tag, I might hold off awhile.

I have the STI HD beadlock wheels with the Teflon(grey) and love them the mud slings right off of them and they are very light.

Kyhillbilly,
Did you stay with 12 inch wheels, or go to 14 inch?

I stayed with 12" have 26" x11x12 tires on all 4.

Kyhillbilly,
How is the steering with the 11's on the front?

I never rode it with factory tires but I think the steering is easy, much easier than my Honda Rancher was. Also easier than my mother in laws Kawasaki Mule and my buddies Ranger. I made a deal when I picked it up on the tires and wheels, someone had ordered and paid half and then never picked them up. $300 for 4 wheels and tires if I left the factory ones.

Don't you need spacers in back then
