Got the 1.5ci winch

I just ordered the 1.5ci winch for my ds650. Total cost was $250 with free shipping and comes with a free receiver shackle bracket. Can't wait till it gets here. I got it from winchdepot.com they had the best prices and free shipping.

My buddy has been thinking of gettinga winch for his rancher , I'll have to let him know about that site . He has heard some - things about them like when they get submerged and stuff after a few times of that the brushes need to be replaced which I'am sure aint cheap , But thats all just hear say ..

The 1.5 is a very small winch for a heavy bike. It may stall if you get it really stuck. I have the 3.0 Warn and have never had a problem with it.

Check out this winch !!!

Let me know how that winch works for ya. I don't do that much mudding but hate pulling my DS out. It quickly reminds you of how heavy these things are !
