Volar Motorsports Sintered HH brake pads. $22 on Ebay. I guess I'll see how long they last. I wanted brass, but I haven't read a lot of feedback on them yet.
There you go, I’m sure they’ll be fine. ;):cool:

And hi from Nova Scotia.

Nope, rode motorcycles with the wife today, both had the day off. Friend of mine has been riding to work for 2 weeks now, roads are bare, snow is almost totally gone. I was snowmobiling out hunting bison 3 weeks ago, would have been better off with the Pioneer. Yukon is pretty tough to beat in my eyes, and I was raised in Cape Breton ;)

Picked up a new / used trailer off Craigslist, $400. It also came with a diamond plate lid to keep everything dry and dust free and a spare tire. It seems like a lot of money for a little ATV trailer .............. until you price them new!!! I have never had a aluminum trailer like this, so far I like it!

Installed the Walker Evans shocks and a new 31” Nilight single row led light bar $66 on amazon.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019XT82MQ/?tag=sxsweb24-20

The WE installed very easily. 100% bolt on application. Going turkey hunting on Wednesday so I will get to test them out then.

I spent a lot of time debating which light bar set up I wanted to go with, and ultimately decided on a single row mounted right under the front of the roof. In my opinion this was a cleaner look thank bolting on top of the roof, and less likely to get beat up while trail riding. Below is a pic of led headlights by themselves, and then with the light bar...the picture doesn’t do it justice!! This thing is super bright!! My wife told me I’m crazy haha... I just like to see where I’m going.

Thanks @ToddH! Wiring it up gave me all sorts of trouble because I used a relay and my three prong switch... well, I kept blowing fuses. I kept scratching my head because I was 99.9% sure the wires were all going to the correct places on the relay...I had them wrong at the switch

I had some “Led Fog Lights” laying around that I ordered for my previous truck and never installed. Almost threw them away, and now glad I didn’t. Disclaimer, they are not good by themselves in my opinion. However, I plan on using the light bar when I’m riding. I did want the headlights to have the upgraded led look vs the yellow halogen look though.

Like the trailer. That aluminum is pricey stuff. I lucked in to a similar bargain two years back. My former boss had his quad stolen. They left the trailer, which I bought for $400. I added the front tray for two gas cans or one 20 lb propane bottle.

Handy for camp gear or wheeling a moose out.
