Funny night in the shop

So this was the scene in my buddies shop tonight my 08 renegade 800x, and two xmrs 13 650 and 15 800 and couple grizzles and a few pints. we were looking over the 650 and found these drain plugs from behind left fender and the were full of oil and plant seeds see pic, I checked the oil and he was 1/4 inch below min fill, I laughed pretty hard seeing all that come out of his bike. I’m a renegade guy what are those hoses behind from fender, why full of oil and how did vegetation haha get in there? Any input from the xmr folks would be great!!

Battery Leads

So I was working on the Quad today when I needed to jump it but had issues because I could not differentiate between the two. Both wires are black with rd tips but one has the solenoid and fuse and some other wire with a blue end to it. Any help on finding out. I tried myself via resistance testing but the configuration that told me blew a fuse

Grinding noise when 4×4 kicks on

Hi guys. New to the forum and need some help. I have a 2001 Sportsman 500 and it makes a horrible grinding sound when the front wheels engage. It sounds like it’s coming from the front left side. Is this typical when the 4×4 kicks on?

Also, when I am in high gear and am starting to move it struggles to move. When I give it gas to start moving, the 4×4 kicks in every time. It really struggles to start moving in 2wd when my handlebars aren’t straight. Any thoughts or ideas about what’s going on?

Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
