Oil cap won’t screw in anymore?

Hey guys, I recently noticed that my oil reservoir cap on my '14 no longer screws in all the way, I've never had issues with it cross threading so I'm a little concerned. I tried looking for previous posts/threads but couldn't find anything. Wondering if anyone else has had this issue? Thanks.

Just bought my first Can Am and was looking for somewhere to learn more about it. It is a 2017 Outlander Xmr 1000. Looking forward to learning about what mods can be done through here. Thanks

Color matched “Polaris” logo on front bumper

how do you paint the the letters of the black polaris name on the front bumper of a sportsman 850 the same color as the plastics? is there any specific type of paint you would use on that type of plastic? And how would you guys recommend doing it?

Started maintenance this weekend.

Bought some Polaris Grease for U-Joints and greased all 9 zerks. Will be doing the Fluid change in front and rear hub next weekend waiting for fluid pump to come so I don't waste any fluids.
My question is Polaris make 2 kinds of grease All Season and U-Joint Grease the All Season is not recommended for U-Joints, but is the U-Joint Grease OK for all applications?

Horrible Squeal…..Final Drive U- Joint

2 weeks ago my 650 xmr stayed making a horrible Squeal, I thought it was brakes so I changed all 3, squeal is still there. Went on a lil muddin yep yesterday, bike is squealing something terrible, I'm leaning towards a bad bearing, but can't figure out which one. I ride the bike, for about 20 minutes, to let it heat up cause the squall had got to be causing friction somewhere. I get off the bike, carefully touch all 4 inner hubs, no heat on any, I reach in and touch the final drive u joint, and whoa it is blazing hot.
FYI: my buddy has 4 can am' s , 2 of his has this squeal, and I was stopped by 2 other guys, I don't know that ask me if I knew what my squeal was. I told em to check their u joint the same way I did, and all the bikes u joints was scorching hot. .......Anybody else having or had this issue. Thx

Install new Can-Am front Bumper??

There are only 4 screws to place to hold in place the Stock Can-Am front bumper, However it is not obvious how to get a wrench on the "nut" deep side ot the upper screws. You have to first remove these two screws and after they loosen just a bit, they just spin with no way to get a wrench on the deep side nut. There has to be a simple solution without taking off half of the front end????? Thanks for anyones help.
