I parted it out after the engine spun a rod bearing. I have lots of parts left.

As the title says what do you fellas say???? As diesels are becoming more and more popular. And the manufacturers are engineering more diesels for more pickup truck applications. This will be a good place to get information and share your thoughts on DIESELS!!!!

Renegade 800 XXC / 2011

Hello guys i have another anoying problem again.. i drive around for like 2 hours and then my throttle is cutting out like i dont get any gas it goes away and comes back if i let stand for about 10-20 minutes it's gone and works again hours what could that problem be? i think it could be because my tank is maybe getting to hot? i installed a new cover with a vent system on my tank and will today add some heat cover on the tank and i also installed a new air filter & cleaned the throttle valve.

What i did so far and think it could be:

Gas pump or filter bad | I checked the pump it comes enough out, filter i did not check yet.
Crank sensor | not check yet
Throttle sensor | not check yet
-----------------------------------------

added a valve/gland cleaner to the gas
added new gas
added heat cover for tank
added vent cover on tank
checked cvt & belt


I hope someone has an idea what this problem could be like i said it only happens about driving for atleast 1 hour or so then when i let stand for 10-15 min its gone for the next hour.

I have a stick 05 scrambler and was wondering what color primary spring to get for more bottom end like acceleration and pull wheelers better only rly want to change the primary for now

I have a 2017 xmr 850, I actually didn't mind the stock clutching with the stock 30 backs. Now I have 29.5 outlaw 2s with msa wheels, and I've noticed I've lost some of the get up and go with the heavy outlaws. Was wondering if it would help just changing the secondary spring instead of just getting the whole kit. I'm saving for a primary that's why I don't want the whole kit. Just something to help until I get one.

Picking up my new Sportsman 570EPS tomorrow. It’s not my First ATV but is my first brand new one. What does everyone recommend to help the mud come off? Right now I’m planning on giving it a coat of SC1 on the underneath and possibly waxing the plastics. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Hey folks,

First post here, hopefully ill be spending much more time here soon! Short introduction; 22 from Alberta Canada, Currently ride a 2008 Yamaha Wolverine 450, been riding for about 10 years. BMWs, old Cummins trucks, computers, camping, and skiing are the rest of my life when work isn't taking over.

Looking at picking up a new machine late this summer or into fall and am well underway into researching what I want. I have narrowed it down to either an Outlander 850 XMR, or a Renegade 1000 XMR and I keep going back and forth between them. The ideal machine would be a short chassis Outty 1000 XMR. I was hopeful for 2019 models to incorporate one but they have been released for a couple weeks now and no such luck.
So, I have scheduled to go in and speak with a reputable dealer in a couple weeks about some options, hopefully they have a couple machines I can throw a leg over. For now I am looking for some insight from "non-commission based opinions" if you will. Been riding 450 and 500 sport 4x4s (scramblers/wolverines) for close to 10 years now, and I think I am finally ready to step up to something more capable, with some more jam to it.


if you have an 850, is it enough? wish you had more?

Why you do you like your renegade/outlander over the outlander/renegade?


I'm really interested in the Outlander 850 XMR for the already racked rad, rear rack/storage, and the 2019 colour for the 850 is sick in my opinion.
The renegade looks flat out nasty, and I want that motor and the shocks... but to shell out an extra $4,000CAD, plus a rad relocate, and probably a small aftermarket rear rack is hard to justify for essentially cut fenders and +10HP in my mind.


No matter which machine I end up with I plan on the basic mods (pipe, tuner, filter, clutches), and will be running SuperATV Assasinators.
Outlander 1000XMR is out of the question for right now unless someone changes my mind, I know people that have owned them and regretted it because the terrible turning radius and long wheelbase makes it tough to use anywhere but a mudhole.

I have a 2014 Sportsman 570 EPS, which is pretty much stock and probably long over due for some upgrades. I ride on typical dirt trails, but most of these same trails are mixed with very nasty mud, ruts, and gawd awful Carolina clay.

The current tires usually do well on dirt and rock, but man they go from 26" to 32" tires going through mud. They don't seem to clear the mud out as good as some of the other tires I've seen, and typically I'm getting pulled out. Sometimes its more or less bottoming out as well.

Current setup:
[Wheels] Polaris SIXr 14x7
[Tires] MOTO Attack 26x9x14 & 26x11x14

After combing through the forum this week. Looks like I'm going to pull the trigger on the following:
- Maxxis Zilla 28x9x14 & 28x11x14 (Going with the 28" over another 26" tire for a little more height, but if I understand correctly these are actually an 1" shorter.)
- RVS Performance Clutch

Anything else I need to consider (or re-consider) on getting a little more edge on the trails? Just wanted a sanity check before ordering.

Thanks!!

The sportsman will not start for me. It turns over no problem using the starter. I’ll crank it for a while then eventually make a loud pop noise. The air seems to come through the carb.

i got it to run briefly yesterday using starter fluid. That was short lived. I could not get it to start after that using starter fluid.

one weird thing i noticed. After trying to start it for a while using the start button the engine just wouldn’t move. I forgives this was due to me drawing on the battery. So i went to use the pull start. It was solid, would not move. After a decent amount of time passes i use the cord and it moves again.

-I checked compression,80 psi.
-it has a spark, replaced the spark plug
-i checked fuel flow. It’s not a heavy flow but it’s moving the gas. I cleaned the fuel pump. Just dusty no mud.
-i removed and cleaned the carb.
-Iremoved and cleaned the starter. One of the brushes was stuck.
-battery is good. About a year old.
-Air-filter ER is nice and clean
-new gas
-i pulled the valve cover off. Everything moves, no metal or grinding noise

I’m about to remove the engine and start looking inside. Any help would work be greatly appreciated!!
