Handlebar risers

So I bought a 2016 renegade xmr and the handlebars hit my shifter. I’m looking into getting some roxx 2" risers but not sure what the bar width is on the xmr renegade. Also what have other people done to raise the bars?

Went through some water…

Well, went through the some water today that was a little to deep for my quad… Nike didn’t stall but within 5 min I had no power to move the quad… I Shut the bike down..checked the air filter… Which had some water in it…not bad thou. Then checked the oil… Looked milky…crap… I was at my home thank god ..and did 6 oil changes till the oil came out clean… On the last oil change I installed a new oil filter as well…the bike is sitting right now… Did not want to try and ride it till it dryed out some… This whole ordeal happened within 20 mins… I also changed out the air filter…drying the one that was in there…. The bike starts up fine… It was just when I put in in high I lose power…revs fine..but slow on moving…this was also before I did the last oil change. I’m hoping it will be fine after it sits a bit….ya think I’ll be ok with this issue??

Thanks for any input

Belt constantly getting wet…

Soooo I used to fly through water on my 570, until I soaked the belt and learned my lesson. Since then I’ve been way more conservative when going through water, but the belt still gets soaked enough to the point where I redline without moving. This sucks. I’ve heard about seal issues. Is it worth even asking the dealer to fix? I have a one year warranty, but I did have a clutch kit installed. I’d rather not ask, get denied, and get pissed off. But if you guys think there is a good chance they would fix it under warranty then I’ll bring it in. Otherwise I’m on my own. What the frig is frog skin? Where do I buy it? Where do I put it? And does anyone have any pics showing me what I should do to my 2016 570? I don’t want snorkels because I use that front rack for hauling deer feed. It just sucks getting embarrassed while your friends all fly past you while you’re draining your ATV. Felt like I was emptying my dirty diaper. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Here are some random pics. I’m pissed.

09 420 oil filter ??

I changed the oil in my 420 this past weekend . Put in synthetic . I also did a 350 as well . I went to a bike shop and bought the filters for these bikes . When I got to changing the filters , the one for the 350 was right , but the one for the 420 , was to small . The shop guy looked on his computer and said both bikes took the same filter , but thats not the case . Anyone know the part number for the right filter for this bike ? Its an ’09 420 , fuel injected , 4×4 , independent rear suspension , electric shift . Thanks for your help .
