Relocated VR XP1K

I fabbed up a bracket. Mounted in front of the radiator. I used 2 washers on each side so reg is sitting off the bracket. Extended the wires. Trimmed the plastic to fit. I figured if it worked on my old 800. Why not my 1K.

New voltage regulator still problems.

Guys I have my other XP that I put another of Rick’s voltage regulators on it. The first one on my other machine has been perfect and stays steady at 14.3V. This 2nd one, I swapped in on my other machine and idle is 11.8-12.0 and when I give it throttle voltage rises quickly to over 16.5-16.8 and of course the power steering is off. Is the brand new regulator bad or do I have some other issue? Also I noticed the voltage regulator got pretty hot very quick, so I’m hoping I just got a bad one from Rick’s.

Having a bad mechanical problem that no one can figure out

I’d really appreciate any help/suggestions you have on this.

Rzr 1000 XP with only about 30 hours on it. Did the proper break-in and got the fluids changed. Haven’t done anything to damage it like jumps, etc.

While on the dunes, the engine is cutting out or something which causes a loss of power. It’s gotten so bad that we can no longer use the vehicle.

The dealer cannot duplicate the problem or find anything wrong. Polaris is being no help and has pointed out that our 6 month warrantee expired before we even got on the dunes for the first time.

Luckily, we had GoPro’s running on all rides and made a video of the problem. Showed it to the dealer and to Polaris. Nothing.

Here is the video:


Thanks in advance,
Jim

2015 RZR 1K Tensioner Rattle

We took our new 2015’s up the mountain last weekend for the first time. After riding for a couple hours we stopped for lunch. Fired up the machines and heard what sounded like a loose bolt or metal housing around the exhaust in the back of one of the machines, like a loud rattle of metal. It happened right when the motor turned over and lasted, maybe, 3 seconds. It happened only three more times the rest of the day. Our other 2015 does not make this noise at all. Took it to the dealer who said most of the 2015 1K’s make that noise and that it is related to the hydraulic tensioner chain moving oil into the motor? He fired up new machines on the lot and some of them made the noise but not as loud as mine. Has anyone noticed this noise, and if so, what was your diagnosis? If this is normal, fine, but want to be sure its nothing else.

Thank You!!
