my thumb throttle broke and I cant seem to find one anywhere. the only option I have been give is to buy the whole assembly but I just need the lever. I looked up the ones I found online but they don't fit my housing. they look like they should though... has anyone tried one or are there any other ideas??
Thanks Lewis

My power steering does not seem to provide much if any assist when my machine is not moving or is going very slow, works great otherwise. Charging system is working fine and it has a new battery in it that I keep on a maintainer when not in use. I have shut off all other loads (lights, grips, etc.) but it doesn't seem to make any difference, any ideas?

Thanks

Hey all! Looking for input and opinions on Skid Plates. When I purchase my 570 I am leaning towards having them install the full Can Am skid plates.
What do you guys recommend for protecting my investment- Alluminum or Composite?
Thank you

I have a 2017 sportsman 1000 xp has anyone put a seat or seat cover from a le on a standard model on ?? I am sure it will fit just don't know about looks...

I know this has come up a few time before regarding a workshop manual BUT I need a specific workshop manual if anyone knows where to look please.

I have a 2011 Outlander XMR and have the outlander g1 and g2 manuals with the extra dps and air sus manuals BUT my XMR air suspension is completely different to those in any manual I have or can find.

At the moment I cannot plumb my suspension in because I have no idea where the hoses go to what part of the compressor and 4 solinoid valves. I think I have around about 7 or 8 air pipe fittings. No other manual has this.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I been doing a lot of research on clutching and the general consensus I've seen is people going with the QSC primary on these quads. Before I jump in and start throwing tires at my quad I wanted to fully grasp what everyone is doing here in regards to clutching their 1000's and what set-up you're running and type of riding you do. I'm familiar with tuning a Bruteforce clutch, I've owned a few Kawis in the past but the amount of options for clutching a Can-am is... plenty!

So, are most of you guys biting the bullet off the hop and running the QSC primary? If so are you changing the spring in the secondary? additionally I haven't been able to get much info on the difference/benefit to a 650 helix in the secondary so If someone can bring me up to speed on that, would be appreciated. And for those running just a clutch kit (EPI/Dalton..etc) How do you like it/settings/tire size?

I get that I'm going to see quite a bit of variation here between everyones own set-up, riding conditions and tire size but I figure just seeing more info will help me figure out what I'm going to do to this quad.

Thanks!

Purchased pair off ebay, one for my 570 and one for the wifes 400HO. I installed mine today on the 570. works very good I used the keyed on power supply under the accessory access panel that way if it was ever left on or the switch hit it would be shutdown with key off keeping battery from going dead.mounted the power switch top right of pod.

I've had an offer arise to trade my current 28 inch outlaws on my sportsman 850 for a set of 27 of bighorn 1's. My outlaws have about 400 miles on them and the bighorns have about 150 miles. I do know this for a fact as the owner of the bighorns is one of my close friends. I do a lot of field, creek, and mild trail riding, with a little snow and mud. I used to mud ride a lot and nothing but mud, but not much now. Would this be an ideal trade? And if so, what am I looking at for durability/life of these tires? Thanks
