Front Steering resistance 2015 850sp

Just wondering if anyone else feels resistance in their steering when in awd. In 2 wheel drive everything feels normal and when I switch to awd it automatically feels like it’s staying in 4 wheel drive all the time. I thought it should only kick in when something starts to slip. It feels the same weather I’m on dirt or pavement( yes I know I shouldn’t be in all wheel drive on pavement) Is this normal?

First ATV: 2015 Rubicon from Ohio

Picked up a new 2015 Rubicon with the DCT and power steering.I haven’t had the chance to take out, only around the neighborhood a few times. I really like it. I almost got the Can-Am Outlander, but went with this instead and I have no regrets. Added a Warn 2500 winch to it.

I will say that when in DCT mode it really lets you know when shifting, but I’ll take it over a CVT any day. I think I prefer the "Manual" ESP mode a little more.

I plan to get storage for the rear and once these tires wear down upgrade to 26" or 27".

Any recommendations on a rear storage unit? I’m look for something that is quality and lockable. Also, I’ve seen those "flat" type gas cans. Do those lock into the front or rear racks or is there a special bracket that holds them in place?

Going To The Dark Side…. :)

So after 3 1/2 years of ownership my Sportsman 800 will be picked up by its new owner next Thursday. Was an awesome ATV for me and it was the first Atv I’ve ever owned.

I’m shopping around at two local dealers for its replacement as we speak…. 2015 Can-Am XMR 800. Finally the XMR comes in the G2 chassis which I’m super excited about. Geared 15% Lower this year, Commander Rear Differential, Upgraded Axle Shafts(Holly Beasty Units), and standard shocks instead of the air ride. I think Can-Am finally got it right this year with this chassis so I’m jumping onboard. So far I have had the chance to do some riding with a 2014 Outlander 800 XT and a 2015 Outlander 1000 XMR.

The question begs, when will Polaris come out with a High lifter edition Sportsman 1000? After losing a lot of money in modding my 800 I decided its best just to buy one that is already built and warrantied! I could buy an 850 or 1000 Sportsman, but I don’t have the ambition to do Wheels/Tires, Clutch kit, Axles, Front Diff Fix, Lift, Rad Relocate and Snorkels… It would be way more expensive then the XMR.

Anyone else feel this way?
