what causes the T-MAP sensor to go bad

So my XP threw the 105 code today at the beginning of ride. It would not idle and ran like crap with throttle. Luckily it happen about a mile from camp and I was able to get it back on the trailer.

I have little over 2,000 miles and a little over 100 hours on my XP1000. What causes this sensor to go bad?

I ride in the sand, open desert and maybe a trail ride or two a year. No water or mud riding.

I am just glad it is not an expensive part and a quick fix.

Help before I burn it

2007 grizzly 660 860 km yes km. I have had this bike since new and rarely drive it mainly because it doesn’t run right. After about a year old it started to lack power and bog when in the mud. Thought it was the carb cleaned really thorough several times. Still didn’t run right. Bought a jet kit and striped a jet trying to get it out. So I bought a aftermarket carb, installed it it without the jet kit. started up idles really good drives without missing no backfire. Just now the bike has no low end or top end. Top speed is 55 60 if I have a long enough straight stretch. New plug, spark seems good. Cleaned the clutch new belt. Cleaned the tank, new fuel before the carb change. Checked the valves at about 500 km around when I first started having troubles. I don’t know if it’s the after market carb that’s the problem now. Should I drill out the air fuel plug and Adjust that. Or is it something else I’m missing. I’m going to buy a compression tester tomorrow and check that. Maybe check the valves again but I doubt it would cause that much power loss. I have a 250 yam that has more power than the grizz.

Install (w/ pics) of .50 Cal. Billet Dash Kit (TeamFASmotorsports)

I recently purchased a .50 Caliber Racing Billet Dash Kit through JT @ TeamFASmotorsports. The kit went on my ’15 XP1k w/ digital dash (IDD).

Above is the anodized kit, in blue.

I started with the switch panel to the left of IDD. I am using all (6) rocker switch holes (2 OEM and 4 elective)
After marking the bezel with a Sharpie, I cut the dash bezel w/ a utility knife. My goal was to leave as much of the OEM [plastic] dash panel remaining as possible.

Ok, one down & one to go…after I get both of the switch panels cut in, the other pieces will be cake!

Attachment 134483
Above is the left side’s switch panel installed. Everything but the switch panels is very easy to do, and the switch panels themselves aren’t bad at all–very straight forward stuff..
The only issue I had was the (2) left holes in the switch panel cover to the left of the IDD were too small to accommodate my OEM switches. I measured these two openings with my Mitutoyo digital caliper, and they were ~.0705" smaller than the (4) other openings.
I approached JT about this, and he was gracious. I didn’t want the pieces replaced or anything, as the remedy was nothing more than taking my Dremel, and trimming the (2) left-hand switch openings.

**TIME OUT**
I heard an eerily familiar buzzing sound outside my shop…..below is what it turned out to be:

Yep, a 4 foot long coon-tailed diamond back rattlesnake….I prolly kill an average of 10 per year, here on our ranch.
Ok, ’nuff about that…back to it…

Attachment 134485
Pictured above is the final product.
I used a small flat washer on the back side of the holes that used the (2) long bolts (all but (2) are the same length). There is one long bolt on each of the (2) pieces that have the ‘.50 Caliber’ engraving. The holes these (2) bolts run though ended up being very close to a corner that’s molded into the dash, and I felt a flat washer on the back would help strengthen them.
Be sure not to over-tighten the nuts. They’re Nylock nuts, so just get all the slack out and quit ("tight enough" ended up being slightly more than a full tap on all but the (2) long bolts).

I believe the billet pieces help to liven-up the interior a little bit.
Hope this helps any of you considering a billet dash kit. They’re available for both analog and the digital dash.

Finally pulled the trigger!

Just picked up my new VooDoo blue 1k today and so far I could not be happier. I have only driven it up and down my street but a huge smile on my face the whole time.

Anything I should double check from the dealer?

Any recommendation on bumpers? I would prefer blue and the only ones I am seeing are the dragon fire. Worst comes to worst I will go with the black bumpers. Also any recommendations good or bad on roof? Can’t wait to take it out tomorrow!

Atv stereo

I need some help. I built a box for the front of my Honda rancher 420 and I put a stereo in it. I have the yellow memory wire hooked straight to the battery then the red 12v wire and the ground connected to a 12v plug to get power from a 12v acc socket. When I unplug the 12v plug I loose my memory. How can hook it up to keep my memory but not run my battery dead?
This is my first stereo installed on atv. Any help is apprecited.
