Came on today after a ride. It is idling around 1700 rpm, won't shift as a result. Cel disappeared today but problems did not. Im not sure how to check codes on this model either. Any suggestions on common causes for this problem? Sounds like a harness short off the top of my head but without a code I don't know where to start.
Cluster and Shifter
Hey y'all, On my 2000 Magnum 500 I polished the speedometer lens because it was hard to see through, Now that i can see i noticed that the mileage is very dim you can hardly see it. Is there a way to get it brighter?Maybe the led's are wore out? Also' when i shift from neutral to any gear it grinds and clunks hard. The idle speed is correct and Im at a dead stop whenever i shift. The linkage is also adjusted correctly.I bought this used and i don't have a owners or service manual, so any help will be appreciated.

570 Rear/Trans Issue
I have a friend who bought a new 570 last summer, hasn't ridden it much yet because of work, just over 50 miles. Anyway, she had a issue with the winch not spooling cable in, took it to the dealer, they fixed it, but called her and said her rear end was destroyed! She said she heard no noise, wasn't having any issues, they said you didn't hear it clicking? I haven't seen it yet, but sounds weird to me, she doesn't drive it fast because so far she's been riding it near our cabins and it a 15 MPH limit in the area. Of course it just out of warranty, telling her it going to cost $600 to fix. Anyone else had an issue with the rear diff?

New Can-AM MAX XT 650 owner
Howdy,
I've just recently purchased a 2015 Can-AM MAX XT 650. Found a great deal on it and plan to learn all that I can about it and how to improve it from the forum. Located in Colorado where there are plenty of areas to enjoy it which I plan on very soon. While the machine is nearly new, having only 5 hours on the engine and 12 miles on it, I plan to research skid plates to install in the near future. I'll read the information available here and see what else is needed with time.

Just some clips from ride last week
Been pretty arid around here so creek in our local riding spot really low, wanted to see if we could ride it to the river. Spent alot of time winching up and around deadfalls and such, then when river got within eyesight everything turned into a quegmire. At one point i was walking in shin deep water on sand to tie winch rope to a tree, and next step i sunk to my crotch...scared me actually. But we both ended up getting very stuck, winching to c if either of us could get free, just as the storm rolled in, so got rain wet and took shelter under bridge for a bit until it let up to come the miles back home by trail.

98 Polaris 500 timing off?
Hey guys. I have a 98 Polaris Sportsman 500. I've been having performance issues for a while now…mostly bogging and recently what I want to say is some type of miss. Ive had to replace a few things over the couple of years since my dad sold it to me. It originally became mine when my dad bought a 700 but I ended up buying it when I moved far away. Today I decided I would adjust my valves. I know its supposed to be done every 100 hours or so and I'm afraid to even guess how many times im over that.
Anyways, as I was setting it to TDC, I noticed the recoil plug "T" was off compared to all of my other TDC markings. From looking at the pictures below, could anyone tell me if this is typical for the TDC markings. I did get my exhaust and intake valves set to .006, just wanted to make sure my timing isn't slightly off. Thanks.
