Finally pulled old yeller out of the garage after almost two years, oil leak and dead battery…fixed both. Drained the gas and made sure everything is greased/oiled/lubed before I finally get back in the game. It’s been a few years but I think I’m finally healthy enough to give it another shot.
One of the slots on the tranny cover stripped so I put some thread lock on it, fixed the drain plug leak with a bit of teflon tape until I get a more permanent fix. Got a new Duracel ATV battery, running some sea foam through the oil right now so I can make sure it’s all cleaned out. Fired up after maybe 2-3 turns of the starter and sputtered a bit but the gas was old even with preserver in it. I ran it up and down the street a few times WOT, did some donuts in the vacant lot across the street and just let it sit an run until radiator fan kicked on, actually started to worry me cause it wasn’t kicking on until I ran it hard a few times. Sprayed down all the rubber and wiring with lubricant. Made sure all my connections are secure. I changed all other fluids before I parked it so I think they’re all fine, I just wanted to flush out the oil in case there was any condensation, all the oil had been drained after i found the leak initially. Threw in about a half gallon of fresh gas and about half a cup of sea foam, cleaned the air filter and shot some carb cleaner down the throttle body. Still have a very slow leak in one tire I’ve given up trying to find, takes months to go flat.

Blew the boot on the slip yolk on my G2 650 outlander the other night. Wondering if anyone can tell me how to take the front drive shaft off so i can replace the boot. Thanks
So I pulled my first noob mistake. Riding the roads after riding some fairly challenging stuff I switched the Outlander to 2 wd. Then I turn off the road back on to the trails and get stuck in some pretty serious mud. Nothing I didn’t think the OL couldn’t handle. I get the winch out and pull myself out. I drive up the trail back to the road and stop to put it back in 2wd. Well I never put it in 4wd lol no wonder.
Which leads me to my question. Can I just leave it in 4wd even when cruising on the roads or is it better to put it in 2wd for that?
Thanks!

Was doing a pre ride inspection and noticed the front driveshaft seal from the diff is totally gone. Fudge. I still have warranty but would rather do it myself than have a 16 yr old work on my bike. Anyone do this job before. Much work? I don’t mind sitting in the garage with some grease, beer and wrenches but am wondering if it’s worth my while. Cheers

Hi all, as the title says I’m interested in a brand new 2014 1000XTP. What is everyone’s opinion on a fair price? I also read on BRP’S site there are factory incentives for $2000 off select 2014 models (No mention of which models it applies to). Any insight you all could offer would be greatly appreciated, as I have never shopped for a leftover from a previous years model. Thanks in advance!
