Handwarmer installation

I am installing a "moose" four zone grip and thumb warmer on a 2006 Bombardier Outlander 400 Max XT. I have heard that there is an accessory socket under the speedometer. Can anyone confirm this is true and maybe advise me on the colour coding?

If not can anyone suggest the location to wire too? I would like the warmers to be controlled by the ignition.

If not I can figure it out with a Digital Multi Meter.

Thanks folks!

2006 Bombardier Outlander 400 max xt 136KM!!!

Hello Folks.

I am a new Bombardier Atv owner. I replaced my 1986 Kawasaki Klf 300 with a 2006 Bombardier Outlander 400 Max XT. It has 136 original kilometers and about 44 hours. Yes it is legitimate. There is not a mark on the bottom side paint and the factory tires still have all the nubs on them. The foot pegs still have paint on top. The grips have no wear at all and the brake rotor doesn’t even have a shine or scratch.

I had to replace the winch which was stolen while it was in storage and a front tire which was left flat for so long it cracked at the side wall. I also changed the boots on the clutch cover which were cracked from the sun. I used silicone radiator hose from my Kenworth dealer which should hold up better than the thin factory rubber.

I plan to do an engine oil change and a brake flush. Is there anything else I need to consider in the way of maintenance before I start putting some kilometers on this machine?

I have had 2 400 outlanders as work machines but I just rode them and checked the oil. Somebody else was responsible for maintaining them.

Thanks very much for your advice.

What width tire for stock rims

Hey guys my buddy just picked up an 08 outlander 800. My 07 outlander has 27×9 in the front and 27×12 in the back but it has aftermarket rims with a wider offset. If he keeps his oem rims (12" rims I believe) what’s the biggest width he can go with either 26’s or 27’s? Thanks in advance.

Graphics Wrap

Has anyone done it yet? I picked up a 2015 Outlander Max 800R DPS for this purpose. No bells and whistles, just power steering. Now comes the fun part. Customize and accessorize.
So far Ive done bumpers and a winch. Thats kind of basic. Now its for looks. Ive done graphics on a car but on an ATV…no.
Theres a lot of sites online. All selling pretty much the same stuff at the same price.
Any advice? Where’s a good place to start for a wrap purchase?
