ok I have an 2015 Highlifter ordering the Highlifter 3-5 lift for it. Not going to big on tire but coming from and 800 with a 6 plus 6 rolling on 34" and the Highlifter is lower for sure. My question is how does it ride if you don’t turn the springs up and stay on low side of the lift with just the three? Love the ride of the new 1000 and don’t want to lose much of it. Thanks for your time.

I just brought home my new XP1k yesterday, and I cannot wait to get it out on the trails. This is my first SxS so I’m new to this. What maintenance should I look into after my first ride?

What tools, kits, or anything should i pick up to keep the machine maintained properly?

Any input is great… Thanks! Excited to be a part of the forum!

And of course my warranty is up. Guess it’s time to upgrade!

Worst part is that I wasn’t even doing anything crazy. We had just crossed a runoff stream and about 200′ past I went to step on it and I heard a loud pop. Figured it was the belt but then found this.

So I’m thinking about pulling the trigger on some new seats. I’m pretty sure I want PRP seats, but I’m wondering is there another brand I should consider?

Specifically, is there anything I need to know when shopping/ordering seats?

I also would like to know who has the best selection of ready to ship PRP seats?

Any help here would be greatly appreciated…

Finally made it to 5000! 2014 XP1000

Quality has been great! Not on a strict schedule, but oil changed every 6-700 miles– Mobile 1 and Napa filter. Still on original air filter- clean it out every couple of rides. Doesn’t use any oil. Doesn’t leak anything. Doesn’t smoke. Has never had a belt problem. I changed the belt at 3500 m but it was fine.

Only issue I have had is– I busted a front cv joint when rockcrawling at the "Hammers" on the trail Chocolate Thunder. My fault– was wedged in hard between rocks and too much throttle!

Also seems to be the first (and only) XP1000 up the trail "Sledgehammer". My riding mostly out here in the Mojave desert is very rugged terrain so the machine has not been babied!

Have been impressed with this machine since day one– lots of F U N !!!

Was thinking of having my exhaust coated. Any danger or void warranty?

Anyone had the chance to try both brands? I have ran the Gates Carbon but would like to have some input on the Dayco
