Our first ride in the xp1000!

Here we are in the first ride doing a breakin on the 1000 and nephews 170



Got stuck climbing out of a wet trail onto the dryer one because the terx they had couldn’t make it down there.
Bottomed out while I was holding my nephew back and trying to look out the side at the same time for clearance.
Also there seems to be a whine coming from the rear end when I accelerate.
Only happens between 15-20 mph
Anything below or above that no noise.
And there is a little in play in my steering wheel on the up and down motion.
I noticed a clicking noise while the steering wheel is locked in by the adjustable strut. Up and down.
The bottom mounting hole for the strut is allowing it to slide up and down slightly making this clicking everyone you steer or just hold it firmly.
I sprayed it with silicone spray, it went away but you can tell the hole is larger than the bolt going through it.
Dealer is good where I bought it, so they’ll look at it.
Or I’ll just find a larger diameter bolt or sleeve to use.
We are going out again this weekend to put some more hours on it then turn it in for the breakin service.
I’ll do my own service after that.
Can’t beat free for the breakin service!

This machine is awesome , the torque is by far leaps and bounds compared to the others riding with me. I’m still getting used to the the bottom end power.
Put it in low AWD and just crawled through mud and water on our trails.
Been raining a lot here in FL. So it was a good weekend to go. Put it in high on main grade and left them without even breaking 6000 rpms. This thing moves. I hit 8000 a few times momentarily but never stayed at a steady speed too long.
I had ran through two heat cycles of low gear varying throttle cruising around. Then gradually drove more aggressive without flooring it. By the end of the weekend I only had 8 hrs on it.
Started raining too bad for the terx to ride, so we left.

GOT BOOST ?
