Sup y’all! After riding a ’98 Polaris sportsman wore slap out with a set of rice&canes on it my dad and I finally got tired of fixing it after or during every ride and seeing as how his commander had never really let us down we decided a can am was the way to go. So we bought a 2013 outlander with a completely newly rebuilt 840 motor in it, a brand new set of 28" terminators and a RDC relocate. Figured I’d join the forum cuz I been lurking around on different threads on different topics. Figured I’d go ahead and show myself.

Hey guys I’ve been away for awhile busy with work. Just to let you know I went to the dark side and bought a rzr. I have been riding that and it’s fun but I still kept the 400 and I mix it up from time to time riding. Now we have the best of both worlds

Girlfriends family has quads and races them. Loser me doesnt have one. Find one in garbage and start build.

Hello and thanks for all the info i’ve already found using the search button.

My girls family has a decent amount of property in upstate NY and the invited me up for the 4th of july. They spend the weekend cutting tracks in the woods and racing quads and dirt bike. As the new guy to the family they let me ride their spare rancher. needless to say this year I will have my own.

I work at a recycling yard and look at what some landscapers are THROWING away. I seriously paid them the 20$ they were going to receive and loaded this thing in my truck. It was missing a coil pack. they used it to push mulch and woodchips around, hence the plow. Guy said the transmission locked up and it was going to need a rebuild. I Figured the rear was locked instead but I found out later the rear shoes were fused to the rotor. I ball peen hammer and a flat head fixed that.

I kept the project in the garage for the next 6 months until I recently decided to start working on it. This is currently where im at. The fenders have been heavily cut. Maybe I should have just gotten a 300ex.

Build plan
317 BBK
clamp on air filter
fo-14 muffler
quadboss revbox
24×11-10 rear tires

Hi! Looking to snorkel my new to me Gade xxc 1000. Looking for a kit, and would like opinions on the best one available. Thanks in advance!

Just introducing my self, Im Ryan I live in Kingston Ontario. I own a 16 Honda Rubicon and had a 96 Honda TRX 300 Fourtrax 4×4.

Initially was going to 86 the whole weekend plan to camp due to forecast even though our land is only 5 minutes from home. Buddy stopped by and calmed me down and convinced me to take everything down and just take things as they came. So 3 trips down hauling quads, camper, and boat we began our weekend saturday morning. Saturday afternoon a severe thunderstorm warning blared thru the phone, heavy down pours possible, hail upto 1.5" diameter, and winds upto 70mph. Great. Folded up awning, batten ed down the hatches. 2 buddies down there knocking some cold ones back and fishing for small blue gill to use as cut bait for setting catfish lines that evening ran up and took shelter with us for a good hour and a half as storm blew thru, then blue bird sky’s afterwards.

Wife musta took this after intally setting up

Kids chilling out after we threw the football/softball around a bit

Cole had an absolute blast riding his little wheeler…all the fricken time lol. He had free rein of the 1.5 acres we were camped on, then next lot of our adjoining it under development, and daughter and I took him around the big lake a number of times so he could "ride the trails" lol. I swear if he smiled any bigger this weekend his head would’ve been in 2 halves.

Then we fished the 2 small ponds with the kids, never did get on big lake just because the 2 ponds were non stop action for the kids. Just a constant cast, reel in a fish, release, cast, reel in fish to the point cole and brooke got bored with it because it was so easy. Looked like a coy pond at an amusement park all the blue gills, large mouth bass, carp, bullheads, crappies swimming around. So dad was busy baiting hooks, removing fish, tie ing new hooks because the kids were late to set and fish swallowed them. Finally I took a bit and threw my l8ne in the river for big fish, but just caught branches and moss floating down as river was coming up due to all the rain. (Was on phone with geerig who lost his boat off the truck hitch going down highway)..seriously, luckily only damage was ego and a $1600 tailgate.

Cracked my fender by riding the wall up a nasty hill at Hatfield McCoy this past weekend. I have a plastic welder and four different types of filler rods, but I’m not sure which one to use. The rods I have are ABS, PVC, polypropylene, and some mystery material that came with the set. I’m planning to press metal mesh into the plastic on the underside of the fender to help add strength. Which type of welding rod will best stick to the plastic fender?

i have a 2015 Scrambler 1kxp and am wanting to add some extra lighting, the pod lights from polaris are good…. but the dual row 24′ light bar on my bench will be better. Im wanting to tie into the pods so it will common with the brites and pods, will that be to much land on the circuit ? id prefer not to have in install another switch.

This weekend my GF’s Outty went into limp mode twice due to mud build up.

Luckily the first limp mode happened just as we were at a spray off area where we were staying and the second time a bar owner allowed us to use his hose.

The first instance was after she had been going through some heavy thick mud, but the second time we were merely just running through trails with several water crossings and a little mud.

With the radiator leaning back at the top, it acts as a mud catch and doesn’t allow for the mud to drain off.

I’m looking for options other than a relocate kit that may help. There is no radiator guard, just open fins, would a guard help deter some of the mud, or enough to make a difference? I also thought about placing some type of screen behind the large opening just under the plastic honeycomb grill on the front of the machine to help divert some of the mud from the radiator.

What has everyone else done?
