GT Rider 1,295 Report post Posted March 14, 2019 Way back in 00 on my Yamaha triple 600. We were headed to Chapelle for the first time. We left from Sacre-Coure. We were following a track and it split. I chose the wrong one to follow. No shovel no winch saddle bag newbie. I cut a tree limb and worked at it for a while. Later three guys pulled up and got me right out. They said never backup. Lesson learned. Film camera back then. 4 1 smclelan, mccaffrey, towing and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Je me souviens 264 Report post Posted March 20, 2019 Hi Jim, Another great ride report. You know it pretty serious when you wear out a winch...lol 1 GT Rider reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GT Rider 1,295 Report post Posted March 20, 2019 Years ago I started carrying a come-along. It was laborious but I was happy to have it a few times. Then I saw the warn "snow winch". It was not mounted on the machine. It was rated at 1500 lbs. I had to assist it pulling a few times. I bought a ProVantage 3500 with wireless remote for my 2013 GT. I never got around to mounting it. I had a local fab shop make me receiver brackets for my 2019 GT. 3 PLAYHARD, MrGutz and smclelan reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
