Just purchased a white lightning 850 and trying to find pics to help with wheel choices to upgrade to. Any pics would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

New 2014 Honda 400x very very happy!
I finally got my first Honda. After riding for 2 days on her I don’t think its possible to be happier with a machine. Awesome low torque and traction made for great technical riding. I haven’t hammered it yet, still breaking it in tho. You feel spoiled with reverse and it has looks to kill lol. Beyond that one issue is a cold start with the 400. Choke or no choke it coughs until warming up enough to idle. Which isnt really nice. A lot of forums talk about that so I ordered up a larger pilot. 40keihin instead of stock 38. Also I ordered a uni filter, 1 tooth lower front spkt, and the gn4 oil/ filters. I also ordered a 152 keihin up from a 148main jet. My question(s) would be do those jets sound appropriate with a full stock quad except an air filter, and also has anyone used a DG bullet exh. On the 400? What a baaaad looking pipe. Anyway anyone looking at a sport quad that begs for more, look no further. Granted I’m not cranking gears at redline. Thanks everyone on here, for all the useful tips and knowledge/opinions. 1 more thing can I upload pics and post them from a cell phone? I only was able to get a profile pic up.
Badlands Winch Review
Well, used the 3500# Bandlands winch a few times over the last several days and it worked flawlessly.
Pulled my fully laden rig up and over some 50-60 degree obstacles without any issues.
The only negative I could say about it is that it is VERY slow. But that is only an issue when your ready to wind the cable back on the spool. Slow winching over obstacles is kinda nice as it’s nice and gentle, not jerky.
I would definatly recommend one for the price its hard to beat.

2013 rancher 420 engine problem
Hello, I have a 2013 Honda rancher 420 base model that is starting to have a running problem. It starts up fine but after I ride it for about 15-20 min. It will start to act like it wants to miss and even back fire or shut off while riding, but has started right back up every time but once.the last time it did this it didn’t start for a good 5 min. I figured since the check engine light isn’t coming on its not that big of a deal, but I would like to get it fixed before anythang bad happens. Any help would be greatly appreciated
850 Lock & Ride Front Cargo Box Question
I have a 2014 SPORTSMAN XP 850 H.O. EPS. I recently purchased a Lock & Ride Front Cargo Box and installed it this past weekend. The next part may be hard to explain so bear with me. I installed the box and its held onto the frame by the (2) lock and ride anchors I guess Ill call them where the old front rack use to sit. The box I would say is very secure on the rubber latch side where those anchors are located and doesnt move at all. However the front of the box (hinge side) / front of the machine I am able to lift the box a couple of inches above where it sits. Should I be able to lift the front of the box and inch or two, or did I miss something that keeps the box more secure in the front? I can take a picture if it would help anyone visualize what I am trying to explain.
Thanks

heat shield
On my 2013 sportsman 850 I have noticed that the plastic heat shield on the right side (foot brake side) has come in contact with the exhaust pipe, causing slight melting. Anyone else experience this issue.
