Greeting All
I did a WY mule deer hunt last fall where we used side x sides to get into the high country. After that I realized I really needed to trade my quad in for a UTV. I live rural and any side x side is street legal here so I can take it into town or to the local supper club etc. I settled on a CF Moto UForce 800 and my initial experience has been pretty good.
I added a two gun soft rifle bag on the rear of cab along with a windshield and soft top.
Dog and I went grouse hunting in northern Wisconsin this past week and put on about 75 miles. Dog and I would ride the trails until we found a nice piece of cover where we would dismount and hunt the edges. Took a few birds and got to know the vehicle.

Break in Cliches
I stopped to hunt a section well off the road and when I returned the unit would not start. Quick check under the hood found nothing amiss so I snapped out the started assembly relay and rapped it with my pliers. Popped the relay back in and the 800 fired right up. Relay must have malfunctioned.
.......
I also found the rear light wiring harness section had fallen of the main wiring harness. Based on how hard it was to put the connection together I concluded it was never properly fastened at the factory.
.......
I always like to be prepared so I have a complete metric tool set, air pump, tire patch, fix a flat, thermostat fan switch and now an extra electrical relay in a water tight bag under the drivers seat. If I head back to WY I'll also ad a spare tire.
.........
Be interested to know if anyone else has had an issue with the relays plus any thoughts on what else I should have in the tool bag.

Have Fun
