Does anyone know what the thread pitch is for the primary clutch Bolt

Hello everyone I’m new to Can Am and to site I just picked up my new 2018 outlander xt 650 yesterday. I’m getting her ready to handle the winter chores around the house ( plowing hauling wood). I can’t wait to get on the trails she’s a little dirty from the ride home.

I have a 2019 outty I am building for this years events.
I run a huge winch and so need a large battery for when I need to winch.


I do not want replies telling me what winch I need or what battery I need or that its impossible. Nothing is impossible with great minds on this forum. I know the bike will not put out enough to keep it fully charged while I am using the winch, that is why I am opting for a second battery for the short periods of winch use and to keep the bikes power seperate to the winch supply.



The battery I run is an odyssey PC950 and I would need to winch for around 30 seconds at a time. The rest of the time will be riding of a good 1-2hrs before I need to use it again so should be just about enough time to recharge all depending on what rate the bike gives out its power.


Does anyone know the output of a 2019 1000R alternator/generator? I am trying to work out if a simple relay or a voltage sensing relay is better for me and what amp relay/vsr I should be getting. :grin

Only additional mod is s LED light bar. What is the best battery you guys could recommend? Need to get some opinions ASAP. Thx

My name is Marius and first of all i am glad to be part of this community. I came from Romania, Europe.
I recently bought my 1st Can Am, a Renegade 1000 XXC ‘15, after gainig some experience since 2009 on KingQuad, Grizzly and Kawa BF. I am pretty a tech-mechanical guy and i am trying to solve the inherent issues by myself and with hopefully with your help[emoji2]

Ride safe&enjoy!

Hey everyone new to the forum been searching around to find the answer to my question but can’t seem to find it so I have a 2003 Polaris trailboss 330 and The battery keeps going dead on it. It’s a new battery and 4 wheeler has ran great for the time we have had it. So after looking around I think I have a voltage regulator issue to where it’s not charging the battery like it should. Since I have owned it the fan hasn’t worked either which I have since wired into a switch so I can control when it is on and off. From my search it looks like the voltage regulator and fan control is inside the ecm so I would need a new ecm. That being said with the fan wired to a switch is there anything else the ecm controls and could I wire in a voltage regulator instead of spending $200-$300 on a new ecm? I’ve found voltage regulators for similar atvs on amazon for $25 so I’m wondering if the ecm only controls those two functions would it hurt anything to remove it and install the cheaper voltage regulator. Let me know what you guys think and thanks for any future help.

Could someone please let me know what the pourpose of these brackets are? I've tried to look it up but could not find an explanation. It looks like it's a guide to slide attachments on but not sure what attachments. Thanks in advance. Again, really new to this stuff so try and take it easy on me lol.

I was out in the snow today pulling my kids on a sled. I heard a distinct crack from the front end. (Note was in AWD) I got off to look and see if i hit something. Well nothing hit but fluid pouring from my broken diff cover. My pinion gear was still inside the gear case so I limped it back to my garage. I removed the two bolts not holding anything lower two. I then removed the upper two that still was holding my pinion gear in place. I removed the crush pin and removed drive shaft. Now I was able to remove the pinion gear. I observed two teeth chipped up. I checked the ring gear and it looked ok. Well this is where I get pissed. I purchased this quad with 148miles on it from a Polaris Rep. Never titled till I purchased it. Its a 2017 Sportman Xp1000 decked out by rep. Winch, plow, led lights after market wheels and tires brush gaurds rear cargo system. I mean awesome quad. Ive maybe put 300 miles on it mainly deer season and deer scouting. No riding adventures never buried in mud nothing. Wife and kids prob put half the miles on it doing yard work.

Well I figured id get online and order some parts. Ie: cover and pinion gear. Well billet covers are everywhere. As for the pinion gear thats a big fat your screwed by polaris. I called two local dealerships they quoted me 664$ for entire new diff unit. When I pull up the diff parts cache it clearly shows all parts labeled individually. Actually the pinion gear is #14. When I question every shop or online source. They just say I gotta order entire gear box unit.

Im to this point. Order a new billet cover put chipped pinion gear back in and let it ride. Why not if I have to buy complete assembly if it breaks oh well at least ill have a new billet cover.

Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated. I turned to this forum when I initially started researching my atvs failure.

Hey guys, I lurk now and then, but this time I can’t come up with much. My buddies have new quads that blow mine out of the water, I want to be able to keep up, but I don’t like the price tag of a new machine. I have been thinking about putting a cam in my machine. I have been finding that it has an exhaust and an intake cam, is this correct? I couldnt find any engine diagrams but I looked up used heads for sale, and it looks like it has a pushrod style setup.

I have a couple questions, hopefully you guys can turn me down the right path. I am not trying to beat my buddies 1000 scrambler by any means, but I would like more power, will this give me a good boost? While I am in there should I rebuild the engine, or just do pistons and rings? It did not have a speedo when I got it, so I don’t know the mileage but overall it’s in pretty good shape for a 2003. Are there any other upgrades I should also do? Or should I ditch the idea of a cam for a better mod?

Thanks for any advice!
