Outlander 500 Dies at idle

I have an 2007 outlander 500xt and sometimes I will start it and let it idle to warm up and it will die sometimes and it won’t start you have to crank and crank on it then it finally fires up and runs rough for a second then you let off the throttle and it idles fine it had done this twice to me in a month do you think I’m having fuel pump issues or something more major?

Handy fender pocket ideas?

I had a 2007 brute force I really loved. It had those pockets on the front fender to stick your phone, smokes or whatever other small crap you had and was convenient and easy to get at.

My question is…. Does anyone have anything even similar on their outlander? If so I’d love some info and pics.

2012 1000 XT Rebuild Project

All,

I started my search for a new ATV about 3 months ago! I was very specific in what I wanted… Can Am Outlander 1000 XT… And it must be in decent condition for a good price!!! More importantly, did I say it must be at a good price?

I searched many local dealers and while the first price point seemed high, they charged insane fees for maintenance and tax ($2k+ above asking price). Therefore, I started focusing on private party sales.

Low and behold, I found a camo Outlander that seemed perfect… The price was right and it needed a little TLC… Ok, a lot of TLC. Still very good bones!

I drove 3 hours down to AL go pick it up on a Sunday! I was extremely excited to see that it was actually in better condition than I thought it would be from the pictures… I knew I’d be sinking a few grand into it to get it back to top shape… At the price point, I knew it had been mudded / submerged… One look under the hood confirmed it.

Anyway, below are a few pictures the individual sent to me as it stood day one… More to come!

Shifter Question

Hi guys.
Something crazy happened with my already hard to shift 2013 Outlander. While plowing snow I reached down the shift into reverse and my shift lever was buried. I literally had the pull it straight up the get it to shift. Any thoughts on what’s broke?
