Was out riding on a wooded trail in WV. Ran over some sticks and heard them hit the skid plate. A little while later we smelled smoke. Wife riding along thought someone was burning brush up on the hill. After a short time, decided to check out the buggy only to find flames rising up from a stick that had somehow entered the right rear A-Arm and landed on bend in the exhaust, just before the muffler. The exhaust is not shielded there.
Luckily, I had a Tundra fire spray with me in the console. Extinguished the flames in record time.
Lesson's learned: If you smell smoke, it is probably you and not someone else. Carry a fire extinguisher. Tundra fire spray by First Alert is good stuff.
