Back at the Takeover I had taken a few tumbles and the result was a cracked windshield, plus a bent and dented front ROPS. So, the other day I had ordered a new fan motor, a SuperATV flip up windshield and new front ROPS. I'm gonna install the windshield last because the lower portion doesn't allow for easy access to the hood area. So I removed the old ROPS today and took one in the noggin. Because it had a little bend in it there was some tight tension, enough so I had to use a sledge to knock the bar up and out on the passengers side. On the last hit with the hammer, It sprung out and clocked me near the temple. Stars I saw. Took my glasses of my face too. Glad I had them on and this tough Sasquatch eyebrow helped to take the blow. I'm gonna install the fan on Sunday as well as apply Dielectric grease on all the electrical connections. The Scarab is looking like the Scorpion now without the front bars. Rainbows and relatively cool here in the Appalachian Mountains.

Turns out helmets are a good idea when riding OR when working on a Pioneer. Looks like you sustained more damage doing the repair than you did during the roll over.

Got the mirrors reinstalled but at a much higher point on the rops. It's definitely more comfortable for me being so tall and I sure do appreciate having some spare parts from a couple I had before and had broke on the trails in Idaho and elsewhere..Plus 4 extra straps and two good tension springs, I had never used until now. Good to salvage some stuff...I like these mirrors because they're easy to fold inward when trailered or on narrow trails.They are fairly durable and the mirrors show well. Plus they have a few different ways you can angle them and the usefulness of modular spare parts. I think they're ATVTek? A little pricey, but I like em.

Added a stainless steel cup holder I saw someone recommend on here...

And got the axe/shovel mounts installed...

I've got a major mod ordered but it hasn't arrived yet... It will be a big surprise and add some serious value to my machine. I don't think anyone else here has done it to their machine that I've seen as of yet.

Can you give us a hint.

my old Dodge

Is it a broken engine that always has to be fixed?

 

[Mudslyder]

Heated tailgate to keep your hands warm while you are pushing it?

 

[100Acre]

is it a Voice Activated Phase 16 Ectoplasmatic Vortex illuminator with a Full Spectrum Sun Filtering Deconstipator ?

LMFAO on that. That is so funny I waisted some good beer when I spit it out laughing.

 

[100Acre]

Or is it a manual?
I invented those. I also hold a patent on the design and it's a trade secret. So, I cannot tell you how it works but I can say it looks like a small cardboard Rhombahexadedron sphere. I can also say it's magic and that I sell them too. Only $137.99. If you buy three, I'll throw in an autographed skin sample from Hillary Clintons General Purpose Army Tent sized underwear. After they were discarded, a small indigenous tribe from the Cape Horn area used them to catch tiny whales but then they all mysteriously died.

Giving the rear box a new look. I had some bleeding through the tape , wich ticked me off. Anybody who makes a cargo box and thinks a textured finish is a good idea , is an idiot (me).
Thinking about using some upholstery tacs to make it look like rivets on the black areas but am afraid it mite look like a piece of jewelry

Owe , I had this little Bastard land on my box.
