Warn Axon winch compatibility

Haven't seen any posts on the new Warn Axon Winch line. I was intrigued by the new design and figured I'd give it a go on my 19 Renegade XXC 1000.

I purchased the Warn Axon 35-S. It was backordered pretty much everywhere so had to wait a few weeks for it to arrive.

Because there was no compatibility information for it, I purchased both the BRP 715000927 and Warn 89535 winch mounts for the Renegade. I decided to mount the BRP winch because one of the winch vendors said they had attempted to fit the Axon in the Warn mount and it didn't fit. After looking at the design of both, it appears the BRP mount has more space any way.

Turns out it doesn't fit in either mount. Kind of bummed so will look at a few more options or return it.

One option might be the front bumper from a Renegade XMR. It comes from factory with what looks like the Warn Provantage winch. Perhaps there is enough clearance in that design for the slightly larger Axon winches. Alternatively I could look for an aftermarket bumper but not crazy about adding a ton of extra weight to the front.

GBC Grim Reapers

Running 27" Grim Reapers on my 2012 650 Max XT. This past weekend was the first time they were put a little to the test. We put on over 100 miles in 2 days of riding. The terrain consisted of a lot of sand trails, loose gravel, hard pack and some mud (very shallow) here and there. Overall I was very impressed with their performance. Especially in the sand where I thought we might have a problem. They never slowed down and pulled strong every day. Based on this and my style of riding, I wouldn't hesitate to buy these again.

New XMP owner

Hey all. Just got myself a 2015 Maverick XMR. Currently has the engine and transmission removed. Anyone in the St. Joseph, MO area that would want to help me put her back together?

Loading Outlander XT 570 in bed of 5.5 Toyota Tundra?

Hey guys.

Do any of you haul your bike in the back of your truck? It looks like the outlander will fit with the tailgate down but I'm wondering about weight on the tail gate. I haul my 146inch sled this way during the winter, obviously the weight is distributed differently than the bike.

If so , are there any support systems out there? i have seen a few that go into the hitch and then support the tail gate from the bottom.

I would like to avoid a trailer, if possible.

14 570 EPS cranks but doesnt start? Help diagnose

Was trailer riding Saturday on my 14 570 that has only 250 miles and 50 hours on it. Ran perfectly fine until I shut it off for a few minutes and then tried starting again and no fire. Cranks over fine but nothing, like getting no fuel or spark. Towed it home and sprayed a little starting fluid in the air cleaner when cranking as well as pumping throttle and it fired up for a few seconds so its getting spark. Is my fuel pump bad? a way to test without just replacing? I assume its located in the tank? i did check all fuses and also sounds like pump is running when you turn the key on. Thanks for any advice!
