Excellent video Frank. Thanks for sharing it. I downloaded the video and added it to the forums downloads in the "Other ATV files" section.

If I'm riding at night, flashlights but also have this cool led from grote, has a magnet, holds a charge, has a flashing feature. Great for camping and night riding. Very bright. $80 at Walmart and $78 on Amazon. I use this light for other things as well and it's come in handy.

A spare machine has come in handy a few times. Some of our trips are planned months in advanced, and if there is an unfortunate breakdown, well we grab the spare and ride. I also put the plow on the spare and leave it all winter. A winch is always a good idea to have. Mike

I have front and rear hard storage, so I stock it with some extra water, extra Gal of gas, Winch accessory kit w/ tow and recovery strap, a 1st Aid kit, and compressor.

I agree with all the excellent suggestions. also include a small tarp, 20’ nylon cord and a folding saw - keeps one at least partially dry when changing/ repairing a flat in the rain. a good quality flashlight is also a must

Plug kit and compressor here too. Along with a multi-driver screw drive, spark plug wrench, pliers, A home made set of ATV jumper cables, and a small set of common combination wrenches. I also have a tow strap and 12v to 5v USB plug and USB A to mini and micro USB cables to charge cell phones and accessories, and finally, a small LED flashlight. It sounds like a lot when listed but all those fit in the built in storage compartment in the rear. I also have a compact shovel and hatchet strapped to the front rack. I have a cheap saddle bag that fits over the gas tank to carry gloves, clear and sun glasses. I added two accessory sockets to my quad, one front and one rear to power my GPS and any other 12v accessory I might have with me on any outing. That is the basic, always on the quad, set up. Anything else I carry depends on the outing.
