just past 600 KM on my 2015 sportsman xp 1000
just got it new couple days before the 2017s dropped.
saved a couple grand though.

Everything is good up till the other day, when i snapped a rad fan blade just after coming out of the water. Heard grinding like gears, found the fan hitting the broken piece.

I dont want to do the relocate kit. the front rack is part of the selling feature.

Have considered wring a cut-off switch or a relay connected to a water sensor….

Any other options?

In the scrambler forum, some people suggested installing a sportsman fan because the fan blades are connected together…???? mine are not.
is this from older models??

The replacement part is not cheap either. over 200 US / 300 here in CAN

Hello everyone, I’m gcr from Vegas. Just thought I’d check in and say hello. I figure I’ll be needing some help from the community. I just bought a 2006 trx400ex from a guy down the road, it’s in really good shape, seems to run pretty good. Haven’t got to take it out yet but so far so good for the little I’ve ridden it. I chose the 400ex because of the reliability of that motor and I needed a quad that would fit in my Tacoma bed, 4dr short bed, it fits perfectly, just need to get a bed extender. It fits between the wheel wells. Should have plenty of power for my needs, I just like ride and tinker, nothing outrageous. It seems to have too much oil in it though, need to hunt down a service manual and learn all that stuff.

I have a 2000 Scrambler 500 4×4 with everything stock. The belt was slipping so much it was hardly rideable. I put a new belt with no luck and now I have replaced the primary clutch and it still has a good amount of slipping.
Is it possible I just ruined the new belt and that’s why it’s slipping now?

I did get the new belt pretty hot prior to putting the new clutch on. I was pretty far from the house when it began slipping very badly.
It does alway seem to slip around the same area of the clutch, which is about 3/4 the way up the plate.
There is 2 1/4" Deflection which seems a lot, but it tightens up nicely as I give it throttle.

When it’s in neutral, it doesn’t slip at all. Only slips under load (my body weight). I don’t weight that much. 190lbs.

The cluth alignment seems to be fine. Spacing is even on both sides of the belt.

Any ideas would be very much appriciated.

I’ve got fluid coming out behind the left rear hub. Any ideas or suggestions as to what the problem may be? Greatly appreciated.

These foam filters must have gold particles in them. Has anyone used aftermarket foam filters or K&N style re-usable filters with out having to re-jet?

I see moose makes after market foam ones for a 1/4 of the price and pods for a bit more. But my experience with pods are that they can be a PITA for tuning the carb, as it usually warrants new jets…

The brass bushing under the jet carrier (I believe it is the slow jet) on 98 Honda foreman 400 carb one side is tapered the other is flat what way goes down in the carb?

Hi everyone,

I’m looking at a 2008 Outlander 800MAX Ltd.
It has 19000KM and I’m not too sure if it’s good or bad.

Since I don’t know much on Can-Am’s ATV I turning to you guys.

I was wondering what are the commons problems on those machines ?
What should I look for ? What repairs/maintenance should I expect at this mileage ?

Should I even consider it ?

Thanks a bunch

So like the title says, has anyone successfully put portals on a grizzly yet? I’ve tried searching and have not had any luck finding any one that has. I’ve seen a couple Hondas done but it took quite a bit of modding to do so. Now some of you might ask why bother, well, I’ve liked the portal idea since they came out. I’ve always ran "big" lifts on my bikes but I am always looking for more bottom end and the 30-60% reduction is right up my alley!
Now I know they don’t make them for the grizzly and they probably never will, but looking at the mount satv has for the viking and wolverine, it appears to be pretty easy to modify to the grizzly. The question is the cv axle spline count and shaft diameter, anyone have any info on this and any chance it’s the same?
