I’m wanting to run Shell Rotella T6 synthetic in the 700 Griz but I can only find it in either 0W-40 or 5W-40 weights, and the manual says it’s ok to use everything BUT those weights…5W-30, 10W-30, 10W-40, 15W-40, 20W-40 and 20W-50.
Would it be ok to use the Rotella 5W-40 or do I need to stick to what’s specified in the manual?

I’m still getting more life out of my stock tires on my 07 Sportsman 800 but wanted to know about suggestions for replacements. I have seen several deals on Amazon and ATV.com with tires sets for around $250 not including rims. I’d like to just put tires onto the stock rims and get ones that are bigger and better for mud without doing a lift kit. I know if I put on bigger tires I will need to clutch the machine and I’m fine with that I want to clutch it anyways. Any suggestions on a tire that is good for mud and maybe a little bigger that fits on the stock rims? Thanks in advance for any info.
I have a 2015 rancher with 1400 miles and was wondering if anyone has taking the plug out of the exhaust to clean it out?I tried to get it off and it’s ready to strip,even tried a pipe wrench.Mine is in there really tight for some reason.

Hello all,
I tried for several hours trying to find a similar problem that had an answer before posting,so if I missed it,forgive me.
I’m working on a friends ’95 Magnum 4×4 that has snowballed into a total teardown other than tearing motor and trans apart themselves(Had to remove trans to weld backside of spinning gear/chain cover nut on frame),and still not done,(pic oughta give you a laugh)lol.
Anyway,it has very low miles and just sat for years at his brothers.The drive chains and gears are in excellent shape with no wear at all other than the chains o-rings are shot and fall off when cleaning.
My question is….since the chains otherwise are great,is it okay for him to ride it with those?Will they just act like a regular chain up to the point they wear,or does any sideplay due to the o-rings being gone cause a concern?I’d hate to make him buy even more parts if they will work fine.Now that he has it back,maintenance/lube will be taken care of,so that’s not an issue,and he’ll probably never ride it hard at all either.Any advice is appreciated!
Hello,
I have a 2016 Can Am Commander 1000 XT and it has the Belt Protection System which makes you start off in Low Range. Does anyone know if you can remove/disable or somehow stop this safety from activating.
Thank you for any ideas or help anyone can pass on.
My powersteering has intermittently been working. Comes on and then goes off sporadically. The unit is kept garaged and clean but I did reclean the module itself. Now, my powersteering check light has come on. I did have a bad battery which was replaced but same things happening. Dealership wants lots $$$$$ to just to diagnose and then advised me the modules are $3000 if needing to be replaced. My atv is a 2010 sportsman with eps. Is it possible the power steering unit costs half of what the atv is worth or are they tring to hose me. Any help from anyone would be appreciated.
