Seems the most recent thread on whips/mounts were started back in 2021. Looking to add a couple on the back of the P1K5.

I saw them in person while having a completely horrible time @ TO '23 (@Robobrainiac and @Koolaid man (aka TOT23)), and decided I had to have some.

Any recommendations? Size/length? Springs? Mounts?

I like 5150’s also ones with the integrated turn signals if u have any.
The ones on my P1 are 3’ mounted on the back ROPS and I used the std ROPS mounts from amazon.

Well, before I drop a buck and a half (or more) per whip for top dollar lights and another $60 per mount for Axia Alloy mounts (I have their mount for my radio antenna), I'm gonna go all Amazon and grab these to see if I even like them. Prime delivery tomorrow. :)

Two 3ft whips RGB 5050 LEDs (5.0mm x 5.0mm) - 2nd Gen (brighter), apparently with 366 different modes (including chasing) and include a wireless remote OR control via Bluetooth from your phone. They also have the wiring to sync/support turn signals/brakes/reverse lighting.

$122 total.
$88 for two 3' whips (plus 6 flags)
$34 for a pair of mounts that should fit our P1K5 ROPS

You definitely get what you pay for when it comes to whips. These are the Amazon ones that I bought. I’m sure the ones you posted will work fine.

I know. I'm gonna find out if I even like them first. If I do, and if these crap out, I'll go for better ones.

Ahh, OK. Didn't know if you somehow mounted them differently/somewhere else.

A while back, I bought the Adjustable Angle 2 Way Radio Antenna Mount from Axia Alloys for my UHF/VHF radio antenna. ~$50 with shipping is a little pricey for one mount, but that thing is rock solid. Will definitely buy more of their products. They have whip mounts and a wide variety of other stuff.

That is what I did. I hand made some to be super cheap. Then replaced them with Amazon specials. My Amazon specials have worked since September 2021

You don't want/need A-Arm guards.
You are correct.
@Papaandhistoys i had then on for a few years then took them off. If u run mud alot like I do, its a pita to get it out of there. If your just riding rocks or dusty stuff then yeah wont hurt to have them. Its all a preference in the grand scheme of things

I’d have to say that I like mine. Try to stay out of the mud as much as I can, but the added protection is a benefit for me. When I was cleaning last week I could see signs of their effectiveness and I know they protected my a-arms. To each his own but I’ll take a little harder clean up over banging a rock. Nomotho

I've only ever installed 1 whip in my 15 years of wrenching.

Pioneer 1000-5 with a 72 inch whip mounted to the back cage, had to bend the thing to get it out of our garage door.
