I am a new 850 XP owner with questions!!

I recently bought a 2011 850 XP, so far it’s been GREAT!!!! However the machine makes a few noises that I am not use to and hope they are normal for the BEAST. At a very slow roll with the rpms down I here a faint humming noise. When I shut the motor down, the engine stops and for a second or two I here a tic tic tic noise, sounds like when u stick something in a fan and the blades hit it. Its not loud but I am not use to hearing this. :fragez:

Alternative to Bosch fuel pumps. Airtex E8335??

I have dismantled my fuel pump assembly and can replace pump if I can cross reference it to another. I have read that some use the airtex E8335 which is the same dimention & conections etc. have only read of one xp user that used this.
Anyone else?
Any other choices to the Bosch unit that it comes with that they dont sell seperatly?
I can buy this for 55.- from Amazon vs a new assembly at 275.-
Thought I would give airtex pump a try.

Fox shock “clunk”

I have a newish 2014 850 and recently finished my first real sport ride. Got out on fathers day and did some fast trail riding. Had a blast. I used to race quads and forgot what I was missing! Anyways, almost every time I pin it to wheelie over an obstacle I get a big clunk in the front end. It sounds to me like the front fox shocks are "topping out". Has anyone else noticed this or should I look for something else?. My rig only has about 300km on it.
