Camping area about 20 miles West of Saguache. There are plenty of good riding areas there. We only put 283 miles on the ATV's but that is our falts. We don't get riding until 10:00 am. We have been riding there for just about every 4th of July for over 20 years. Did not go South this year and get on top of Boot mountain. Mostly went North. If you look at a map of the area we camp along 41G which goes south off SH 114. There are thousands of miles to ride; just depending on how far you want to get from camp. The nice thing is you do not run into many other groups riding. We had to see less than than 5 other groups in all the riding we did. Camping you do not have others next to you: all dry camping. In fact, could not see another group in eyesight. The nice thing is it is ALL national forest area, and a few ranches. Very few.
Last year we did make it to the WAR MEMORIAL but did not stop. This year we did the 1/4 mile hike to view it. The first day we tried to get there we made a wrong turn and did not get there. Along the way we passed a sign to Spook city (a ghost city); we should have gone there since we were far to east to make the war memorial. And then we could have gone to Bananaza and Marchell Pass. The next day ride we did get to the War Memorial.
This year we did do the 1/4 mile walk/hike out to the hidden WAR memorial. It is well hiding and not advertised. The surprising thing no one had done damage to the memorial; this is why they try to keep is a secret.

Here is more about the Soldierstone War Memorial.

I recently picked up a 2010 sportsman 550 efi. When I got it the owner said sometimes, which on "cold" starts is always, that it takes a second to crank over. I haven't found any info on this problem.

Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.

Here is a "cold" start up. Less then 24 hour's sitting.


After it it's warm some times I get a stutter at start up


One other issue is the I have a small leak in the front diff. It doesn't appear to be any of the seals. The best I can tell is somewhere near the bottom of the diff towards the front. I only found this after seeing a small oil spot on the garage floor.
