Planning to order a 2019 Renegade XXC triple black soon. I’m in MA, min away from NH border. Prefer to buy from an experienced dealer as I’d like some after market items installed.

-extreme front bumper
-warn winch
-extended fenders
-exhaust/tuner

Any New England members have recommendations? Willing to travel for a quality dealer.

With the RH Side Panel Close-Off Kits being available, any need to go the extra mile and still wrap the exhaust? Dealer has me on the list, but I'm about 8 weeks out.

Bought some titanium exhaust wrap about year ago and never got around to putting it on. I have the bike torn down this weekend, installing the heat shield for the gas tank. Saw the wrap sitting there and was considering it.

I'm guessing not worth the effort, per the positive feedback on the kits.

Thanks.

Already replaced once. Issues again. Did a diode test. 2 of the 3 phase read 157 while the 3rd went to short. Melted tail lights, positive battery terminal, melted rectifier/stator connection. This all started when I noticed a loose + battery terminal. Could this have caused a diode to fault in the rectifier?

Good afternoon all!

I have a 07 Sportsman 450 that randomly shows the flashing battery symbol.

I grabbed the volt meter and measured at the battery. At idle the voltage is 12.4-13. When I rev it up it can go as high as 18 volts.

I am assuming I need a new regulator.....Am I correct?

Suggestions on where to get one?

Thanks all!

Hey Guys,

Was out the other day, and someone pointed out that my front wheel was all over the place. Lifted the bike today and this is what I found, it is a 2017 with 1700km on it.

Is this the ball joint gone or possible wear in the knuckle? Also would this be covered under warranty?

Thanks in advance!

29 hours on it. Had the 20 hour service done at the dealer a month or two ago, no issues. I take great care of my stuff.

Today I am riding and the check engine light comes on. No change in how it runs, seems fine, had to ride several miles back to the truck with it on. Starts fine, runs strong, nothing seems out of place.

Tried to hold down the MODE button to get into the settings and see if it throws a diagnostic code, and I can scroll through all the settings, but at no point does it show me anything to do with diagnostics or a code. Nothing at all.

If not for the stupid engine light being on, I wouldn't know anything was amiss.

I see in other threads that it's a known issue with some ECU's, with no remedy? How will I know if there is some sort of problem and that I need to turn the motor off and get it to the dealer?

Thoughts?

I want to stiffen my rear suspension on my 07 renegade 800 but the adjustment bit isn't moving, even with a spring clamp. Does anyone have any advice on how to sort this out?

[COLOR="magenta"]I have a 2006 Hawkeye but l cant find the specific model repair section here for it. Can someone help me?

Went riding this past Wednesday and my 2015 renegade 500 started to give me the hi-temp/limp mode home message. As well as coolant over flow. However I just replaced the coolant in February before going down to the Hatfield&McCoy trails and the thing ran fine down there for 3 days of straight riding. But now on a day trip of riding for maybe 4 hours it starts to overheat? Radiator is not clogged either. I haven’t heard the fan kick on either. Don’t know if that is why it is overheating.
I should add that this is my girlfriend bike and she is the only one that rides and but when it started over heating I was the one riding it and I was pushing the bike a lot harder than she does but I don’t think that’s why it started over heating. Plus she was riding it earlier in the day anyways. It just happened out of no where. I don’t see coolant leaking from anywhere other than the overflow hose either. Need help please!!
