I have a 400 ranger which should be real similar to the 500 rangers. those that have rode windrock know there are a lot of gravel roads, some flat and some with some grade like climbing to windmills. or the paved road up the mountain. should my 400 be able to climbed the paved road or the gravel to the windmills in high range? how can I tell if high range is too much? I always use low on trails and such, but low is just too short on the gravel roads. the flatter sections I know high is fine, but when I start climbing how do I know when I am pushing too hard and risking burning or blowing the belt? or does the 400 have enough power to smoke a belt? I don't have a tach, and use a GPS for speed. is there a minimum speed for climbing in high range? anybody have any insight??. low tops out roughly 15mph, and is painfully slow running some of the gravel roads, so the reason I want to run high if it's not too hard on the belt.
thanks!! Chris
