Sir, This has been brought up a few times but it is a good question for everyone new. If you are going to a park and you are close to camp you don’t bring a lot on the ride because you can walk back or your friends can tow you back. But if you are up in the wilderness and you are miles away from camp, you bring the kitchen sink. You never know what is going to happen. I trust my machine to get me here to there but I know at some point like all toys they will have something break or go wrong. Just bring everything. I believe a few years back a member made a whole list of what you should bring. My advice, bring everything you can.

Here’s a few precautions I take on myMax but can pertain to anything. Tires are filled with Quad Boss tire sealant. I Cary screw in valve stems, hand tire pump, spare fuel pump, a primary drive chain, belt, fuses, multi tool, valve core remover, bolts for the splice on the tracks, hooks to pull them together, spark plugs,fuel filter,electrical tape, crescent wrench, a spare throttle cable taped along side the existing one, an ice anchor to winch from, along with my ice fishing gear enough heat and food and water to spend a night if worse case scenario.

I’m a big advocate for the kitchen sink train of thought. Going to get some spare cables, & chains. Maybe a spare inline fuel pump. And all the tire care needed, with two spare tires strapped up some place . Thanks
