I’m just going to toss it out there because you never know.
We are in the market for a Outlander 850 Max XT in Camo or the Brushed Aluminum in case anyone knows of someone looking to sell one.
We are in Southern Colorado now but will be headed down through eastern New Mexico and on down into Arizona for the winter over the next few weeks (will be bouncing around Arizona until close to March).
Will probably buy a new one while in Arizona but would really like to find a lightly used one instead. Like I said, just thought I would toss it out there, you never know who might know of someone.

Good morning, all.

I have a Rancher 420 that I bought used three months ago. Long story; bought it at wife’s urging to help out a family friend while also getting a more suitable snow removal machine for our 500′ driveway. If it hadn’t been for the family friend tie, may not have bought it, certainly not at the price I did.

The machine had 26 hours and 153 miles on it when I bought it. Has 31.5 hours now. I only use it on our acreage for chores, so hours is going to be the real measure of use.

The machine was relatively clean when I looked at it to buy. However, there was dried mud to be seen when I picked it up.

I had it on the to-do list to go over the machine very closely, and I did that yesterday. I was concerned that the family friends ex-boyfriend had abused the machine and found evidence of that. The air box was full of oily water to the bottom of the air filter. There was evidence of deep water on top of the engine.

I put a new air filter on it and changed engine oil and gear oil in differentials. The engine looked OK, but the differential oils had a milky green appearance. I don’t know if that’s just the characteristic of hypoid oils or not. Anyway, that’s all now fresh.

The machine now shifts much more smoothly than before the oil change. I suspect that (insert moniker here) ex-boyfriend changed the oil and put in regular 30W oil instead of ATV-spec oil suitable for the wet clutch.

I want to completely drain the fuel tank and put fresh in. I don’t see any mention of fuel filter or shutoff in the owner’s manual. My initial inspection of the mechanicals yesterday didn’t lead me to any obvious way to easily drain the fuel.

This machine will always be low-hour machine, and so how much fuel I use will depend on how much snow we get this winter. I don’t want to let a lot of old fuel just sit in the tank.

How do I get the fuel out of this machine? Similarly, if there’s womething you would do to this machine given what I know about it, what would that be?

Thanks in advance.

Quick high level review of my new ride. Any questions/requests for closer looks let me know

Anyone order from the Polaris website the engineered maintenance kit for changing the diff fluids. Was wondering if it is the correct amounts as it seems like it is used for all the machines from rzr to sportsman to scrambler

I got the yamaha connector installed . I want to hook up a pico 1882 pt connector . That will give me 3 hots vs the 2 with the Yamaha should work as long as i don,t run everything at once. Anyone try this ?

Am new here so howdy to all.
On this automatic, believe it to be a CVT, is reverse actually part of a F/R gear set or is there a reverse gear at the rear axle?
Thanks
