First Day
Good day all,
I brought home a new 2018 Can Am Commander XT 800 yesterday. Looking forward to many days traveling the trails with it here in Nova Scotia with a trip planned to cross Newfoundland next year.
I started out with a 2005 Yamaha Grizzly, then a 2015 CFMOTO Zforce 800 and now the Can Am.
Looking forward to being part of the Can Am Family and this Forum.

04 600 with power cut off when reving rpms
Had to jump start, running and idles ok but when rpms are up the dash blanks out and comes back after a bit. Thinking battery is bad but not sure. Battery only two years old. Could regulator be bad causing brief power interruptions?
Volatage regulator question
Bought a used 2007 sportsman 800 with really low miles and in really mint shape. With all the threads on these machines i was able to solve a few issues. Quad wasnt charging so i tested the stator and the voltage regulator. Stator seemed to check out but vr seemed to test on the low side all 3 numbers were the same though. Bought new regulator and before i installed it i tested it and i got 1 number lower than the other 2. Installed it anyway and my tachometor doesnt work now but its definetly charging. Hooked old 1 up and my tach works but doesnt charge. Is it possible i recieved a faulty regulator or do i have something else going on? Any thoughts? Wiring on this machine all looks new. Looked around and seems to be no visible corrosion

Sportsman touring clutch kit
I've emailed several places and cant find a clutch kit for my 2012 sportsman 500ho touring. I want to run a bigger tire but not burn my belt up. Does anyone know if there is one out there. I've read mixed reviews that the clutching is different from the touring to a regular 500ho. Thanks
wrong caliper
The rear caliper on my 03 sportsman 500 was ruined, so I picked up a used one from a local parts guy tonight.
When I got it home I noticed that the one I picked up is a totally different style. It's off an 02 and has 2 pistons instead of the single that my old one had.
I didn't get the mounting bracket or bolts with it either. The mounting bracket from my old caliper looks like it will work, but the old bolts are threaded and the 02 caliper isn't. Can I just use regular bolts and nylon nuts to mount the caliper to the bracket?
The pads are different too. The 02 are y shaped and the ones from my 03 have the tabs at either end. I'd have to order new pads as well.
Can I make this work, or should I just bring it back and look for an 03 caliper.

Winch Help
2018 Outlander 570 with the factory Warn Winch, first time we tried to use it today, pulled the line out and got ready to winch, as soon as you hit "line in" button it kills the motor and you just hear a clicking sound, increasing the rpm on the motor before hitting the switch doesn't help, line doesn't move at all the engine just dies, anyone have any ideas ?
