Sportsman 800 Mods

I have a 2007 800 Sportsman that is completely stock. I love it but want to get more bottom end out of it. I was thinking about doing a slip on exhaust and clutch kit to wake up the bottom end so it will wheelie more. Anybody have any good kits they would recommend? I’ve looked at full exhaust but its a bit expensive and you need to get a EFI controller. A lot of what I have read is that the slip ons don’t add any HP. That true? I have the single muffler.

Ricochet skids (olive drab)

Hey everyone long time reader, first time posting

From all the positive reviews i finally decided to order a full 10 piece set of ricochet skids for my 2014 grizzly 700 camo. Could never find a picture online of the olive drab colour but decided to order anyway off the images on ricochets site thinking it would match my quad nice. Here is a picture i took quickly yesterday of the set (they did forget to send the footrest skids, resolved quickly on the phone).

Long story short wasn’t happy with the colour, more browish/black than green. Was told it was the correct colour, just a heads up for anyone ordering. I did receive my money back for the anodizing

Spray in RZR cab

Thanks gtsm, I have a fold down windshield but I didn’t take it to HM. It may help keep the spray out of the cab. Let me know how the half WS does. Our next trip we are considering staying in a location more convenient to the OL trails around PC and IR. Do you know anything about Wagon Wheel Resort?

Vforcejohn

Does anyone know if VFORCEJOHN is still in business? I was looking at his website and some of the stuff on there is way outdated and in searching for him in the various forums, I’ve noticed that he hasn’t been active in a couple of years.

Wondering if he’s still in business.

Engine Fan Problems Outlander 650

Recently, The fuse has been blowing for the fan on my Outlander 650. Come to find out when the fan kicks in, it starts at full speed then slowly keeps slowing down until the fuse blows. Would this be indication of the fan motor going bad? Should I check somewhere else first? I have not checked any voltage or resistance with a meter yet. I was just seeing if there is anything I should check first before working with the fan.

TIA,

Collin
