Body roll and sway bar

One reason I didn’t want the xp1000 over the 1000s was body roll. Had dealers, rzr forum and friends say I wouldn’t like the body roll. Well they were right although I like the power and suspension just need to figure out what to do.
I am looking at a front sway bar thru roth racing or racing tech but with the latter you need their bumper. Also new tires to stop that roll in the corners. there are also links I think that’s what they are that I can add to the rear sway that some say will help. Any ideas out there would be much appreciated.

eps and speed sensor problem, my experience

Just wanted to share my experience. We where riding last weekend and I had to get winched about 15 feet up a hill, I stayed on the gas having the engine reved up, to keep voltage levels up I thought. When I got to the top of the hill my eps was not working and I had a check engine light. First tried turning bike on and off to reset eps, no go. Then checked eps connections and relay and fuse, no go. Said screw and took off riding without eps what a pain. After a couple of minutes riding in low I noticed my speedometer started working. I turned the bike off and back on and everything started working. Ran fine the rest of the weekend.

I read today on here where driving in low would fix the speed sensor, but why? And why did my speed sensor trip from being winched on? We where not in any water all weekend.

Loss of power

Ok, I tried to search my issue and sorting through threads that’s have nothing to do with my problem is getting tiring.

So, the machine is running fine all day then no more power, foot to the floor, 20 mph, keep holding it and it will very slowly climb to about 40, and I mean slowly.

Let her sit for about ten minutes, good to go, she runs like a top, hour or so later, shit happens again.

I changed the belt, took the cover off, fresh gas, problem still exists.

Oh while I’m at it, I’ve had a de-rate issue every once and a while, check engine light comes on, engine de-rates, half a second later full power.

I don’t know what to do anymore, please help rzr family

Larger tires

I have a stock 15 XP1000 and I love they way it runs. RPM,s are fine. Excileration is fine. It is just good the way it runs In stock form.

My question is if I go to a 30" tire what will be the ill affects as far as performance. What will I have to do to make it run like it does now?

How much of a loss in power and excileration will be noticed going bigger? Not so sure I want less power, if you know what I mean.
