Will 30’s fit??

I’m sure this is somewhere but couldn’t find it. Will 30 inch tires fit a rzr 800 50 inch with a 3 inch lift? I seen where somebody had 31 inch outlaws on his with a 3 inch lift. My uncle just bought another 800 and put a 3 inch lift on it and ordered some 30 inch silverbacks so I hope they will fit….

High idle, Over heat, transmission issue

Hey everyone, got a lot of help last time I was on here, so thought I’d try again. So I’ve got a 2011 rzr 800, 50" model. I recently pulled motor and transmission to get some work done ( welding exhaust, tap new exhaust holes, transmission mounting issues, etc)
So, tonight, my parts finally came in, put the bike back together very easily, and exactly as it was, obviously minus a couple things, lol it’s overheating, I filled the radiator and reservoir up with new 50/50 antifreeze(airlock?), also, it’s very high idle, start out low(1000-1300) then within seconds, just continue to rise, and finally the transmission….. When the bike is in park position, it is Parked, BUT it says it’s in LOW. So I play it down through the gears and it’s exactly backwards, in saying. So example:park=low, reverse=high, neutral=neutral (but won’t show up, just two lines where "N" is suppose to be), high=reverse, low=park.i think I may have tampered with the sensor when I took it out. There’s a few small prices maybe I swapped around or something. Any help with this would be appreciated. I’ve had the high idle before and I have a brand new fuel pump and throttle body sensor. Just to let everyone know! Thanks!

Low battery while running

Hey thought I’d see if any one has had this issue before or may have an idea of what is going on before I start into trying to figure out what my problem is.

I was stuck in a pretty good hole tonight, winched out and decided to head back.
Couldn’t pass up giving the hole another go and the hole has beat me 2-0, so while winching out of the hole the second time I see my cluster show "low 10.6-10.9" for a moment so I continue, it comes up again along with dimming lights and so I winch out a couple inches at a time, my cluster would go out if I had the winch on for more then a few seconds. By the end of getting myself out I had an engine light come on, the engine light as gone away but if you scroll through the display options there is now a thing that says "check eng"
It was running well enough and I was to far and to late to be walking home so I was able to get it back with quite a few cool down stops due to a caked up radiator.

The rzr had a tough time tonight for sure, so I’m thinking it must either be the battery that is pooched or the charging system has shit the bed….. I’m not really all to sure as this is the first time if had much of any issues with this machine, any suggestions would be appreciated.

trail bright led replacement headlights?anyone tried them?

RZR replacement Headlights

^link to the lights..was considering buying a set..i have a volt meter on my 08 800 and when the headlights are turned on it drops over a volt..i can turn on my led whips,12in and 30in light bars on and it barely drops…so wanting to do this for less power drain when i only run the headlights..i dont have a voltage issue as its charging over 13v with all my stuff on OTHER THAN THE HEADLIGHTS and have 2 large batteries.just seems like the factory headlights are very power hungry..anyone tried these?look good for the money.

How common is a rear diff failure?

My new to me 2011 800 with 1600 miles is running great. Some of these posts regarding the pinion nut has me worried. I really don’t have the tools or capacity at this time to repair it myself due to an injury. I want to install better shocks, lift kit and bigger tires but I’m afraid to spend the money if I have to pay someone to improve the diff. Is this failure very common? Should I spend the money on the diff before further upgrades? Thanks for any advice.
