None. I guess clearing the codes was enough…still gonna take it in and make sure. Just to document. Trying not to worry about it.@GovtMule Did you have anymore problems on the way home.

You have no idea. I was not in a good way yesterday. Checking the codes it looks like a communication error between the trans and ECU (nomo). Just pisses me off.🤔.......😈
I knew it!!!......can naver trust those "trans"...🙄You have no idea. I was not in a good way yesterday. Checking the codes it looks like a communication error between the trans and ECU (nomo). Just pisses me off.

I'm not sure there's much of anything that you won't worry about, @GovtMule ...None. I guess clearing the codes was enough…still gonna take it in and make sure. Just to document. Trying not to worry about it.
I am a tad bit high strung!I'm not sure there's much of anything that you won't worry about, @GovtMule ...
I think that was the only dumb thing I did Friday lol. If I had seen them go through that rut, I probably would've taken the bypass. I forgot to tell you to wash your radiator out Friday when we were at the creek lol.(My first) Lessons Learned (from the Coke Oven Cabins 2023 trip):
1. Clean your radiator every day, especially after going through the sloppy crap we spent the day going through on FRI. If you don't, your oil won't stay cool and your sub-trans can heat up and make your dash look like a Christmas tree (and risk your clutches). Thanks @lee and @JACKAL
2. Carry plenty of water (and a few water bottles). Never would have thought about poking a hole in a lid to make a "spray" bottle. Thanks, @JACKAL
3. Do NOT trailer with the CEC Enclosure on an open trailer. One side was perfectly fine, while the other kept coming unsnapped and flapping around. From now on, I'll remove the entire enclosure if/when I have to trailer. Most likely, I'll be removing it and replacing it with some sort of hard doors and a mid-panel (for the winter).
4. When @Hondasxs gets his Talon stuck and has to winch out, it's probably not a good idea to try to follow him, especially if you're driving a Pioneer 1000-3. Ain't that right, @TripleB? 🤣
5. Keep your front safety nets installed. You (and your SO) will be happy when they don't have to keep ducking branches looking to take out a few teeth.
6. Muck boots: If they are tight on your feet due to having a EE foot, don't expect them to stretch even if the ad says they will. Buy a bigger size.
7. Don't wear a muck boot on one foot and a standard gym/athletic shoe on the other if you're going to forge across a 3+ foot deep river/creek.
8. Do not follow @Red500. He's an idiot. (LOL J/K - inside joke).
9. MT over AT for slow, uphill, rocky terrain. Don't change gears unless you really need to. Thanks, @JACKAL
10. If there is ever a HondaSXS.com group event, large or small, planned or ad hoc, do NOT hesitate to attend - it was OUTSTANDING and we met lots of folks who I hope we ride with again in the months and years to come.

they're great!! Pull up to a creek/lake use melted ice from cooler, water jug what ever.....really good to get behind the radiator too 👍
I used to carry a little 1/2 gallon hand pump but for under $30 these 12volt sprayers work great! It stays inside a designated plastic ammo box, perfect!Yup. Coincidentally, I just ordered this exact one a couple days ago for this June's TO.
I learned my lesson the hard way last year. Went out for 9 @ 9 where I bashed through some deep mud. Washed my buggy the next morning at DTF, but clearly didn't get the radiator good enough. During Jackal's tour of Sundquist, I spent the last 2/3 of the ride overheating. Makes it not quite as fun when you're trying not to thrash on it too hard while its hot.
