While changing the oil on our 2012 850 xp .The dipstick was not seated correctly and when we started the engine it broke the dipstick off. We stopped the engine as soon as we realized what happened. We looked in the oil dipstick port and did not see anything . We drained the oil and did find several small pieces of plastic from the dip stick. We refilled and drained 4 times and did get a few more pieces. I will change the filter again and cut it open to see if there is any material in the oil filter. Any suggestions on what to do next ? Am I going to have to pull engine and take off oil pan? Do I run for awhile and do several quick oil changes ? Really Really need some help and advice. Thanks so much for the help and advice.

Hello guys. So yesterday I sunk my bike up to below the seat. It stalled out. I got it winched out
Got a lot of water out of the exhaust and pulled the plug. Turned in over a bunch and shoot all the water out. Air box has some sandy mud in the bottom but the filter and filter bag were dry and nice and clean ( only 50 km on the damn bike) cleaned out the mud.
Checked the motor oil. Looks brand new with no milky oil. I pulled the red drain plug in the bottom of the CVT housing.
Still worn start. I’ve left the spark plug out for tonight in my shop to dry out the cylinder more.
But I’m not sure about the cvt area. The water was really muddy and sandy. Beside pulling everything apart. What am I’m supose to do to clean it out back to new again ?

Fitting 32’s
So with my axle broken I went to ride with my buddy in his RZR n we immediately got a flat. So we took the wheels and tires from my Highlifter and bolted them onto the RZR. After easily getting some serious mud he offered to buy the tires off me. I want to put 32's on mine but don't know if they'll fit. I feel like I remember reading the main clearance spot is the rear left on the snorkel, if that's the only one I would rather take my tire cutter n trim the treads rather than lifting and widening it. Anybody put 32's on theirs yet?

07 Renegade no dash power
Ive got an 07 renegade 800.
All of a sudden, my wheeler has decided to play dead.
Ive got no dash, no fuel pump, nothing
Good battery, good connections, good fuses, brand new ignition switch, cleaned kill switch.
Nothing.
Getting power to fuse box, but apparently nothing is happening.
Any help or where to check next suggestions are welcome.

Best way to get to top rear shock mount
So I ordered some rear shock bushings for my Xplorer 300 off Ebay. I guess I could ask the guy I got them from but what is the best way to get to the upper rear shock mount?
I took the seat off but underneath all I see is the rear clip. It kind of looks like the whole rear clip needs to come off (the correct way). I'm thinking if I cut an access hole in the plastic above the mount and I can get to it easier.
There may be enough room to get an extension and socket in there (at least on one side) and go at it from the side.

700 38mm TMX carb kit and clutch kit
I have an Aaen Performance 700 Sportsman 38mm TMX carb kit ACA12515. This is complete ready to install. Everything is there , nothing else needed even jets for tuning and all paperwork. I like new condition , hardly any run time. This really wakes the motor up , big performance difference.
Also comes with a Aaen Performance clutch kit complete with paperwork. Has been used but still in great condition. Will sell both together for $175. TYD. If you are seriously interested I can text or email pics.
