Rebuilding from ground.home much HP does it have stock,how much would I gain by boring it out.80,or is this to much??thanks

Me again, I've been searching for portable air compressor threads , and didn't find much of what brand / model you guys are equipped with . I'm not brand loyal and doesn't have to be the fanciest from the market. I know old american saying " you get what you pay " / but also I'm not looking to spend hundred on pump that I might use once a year or once a 5 year. Looking for something that will fit in a front storage , and will not fall apart after first jump. So, what you have in your storage for portable air pump, what to stay away from, good and bad reviews , all are welcome... pictures friendly post [just have a mercy] :nerd
Also an idea of using CO2 bottles, if anyone have used them, please share your experience... what kit from where, and again reviews are always welcome ;-)
thanks in advance.

My 08 outlaw keeps wanting to over heat iv done the thermostat delete and I'm only running engine ice coolent I ride in Ohio were it gets to the 90s in the summer I mostly do mudding and trail riding and yes even on the dry days where the radiator don't get covered in mud it still likes to over heat at times it's got the stock jetting is there anything else I could do to help this problem?

Hello. Just throwing my wheeler back together. Having a hard time getting the axle thru the hub. Can only get enough of it thru to get the nut on barely and definitely not enough turns to get the pin in.

I put my axle in the freezer in hopes it helps glide it in.

Any other ideas?

Hi guys,

New to this forum but not new to the Can-Am game or riding in general. Had a few specific questions. I'm a senior in college, about to head to law school, and am working with a limited budget. I have had a few Renegades and several other machines, but I'm currently torn. My buddy got a new Scrambler 1000 and I'm catching hell trying to keep up in the woods. What I've learned, however, is that this is much more a function of handling and suspension than difference in power.

I've added Rox bars and risers, and this has helped with my rider comfort (I'm around 6'4"), but much is left to be done. I really need to replace the suspension, especially after riding XXCs with KYB and Fox. It appears Elka no longer makes the shocks for G1 renegades, but I'm still finding stage 1 and stage 3 on Ebay. For trail riding, albeit sometimes fast, what should I get? Is there another reputable shock company I should go with?

I've run Super ATV's power steering kit on a Sportsman and really liked it. What do y'all think about the kit, those that have used it with Can Am products?

OR should I just sell and try to find a factory XXC for $8,000+? I think I can get both power steering and a shock upgrade, spend less, and be fine. I'm not dissatisfied with the power, and I'm not turning this into a Scrambler or 1000r, just a more rideable machine. My machine is in pristine condition with 1100 miles; perfect plastics, etc.

Thanks again so much. I've always found forums for ATVs to be very helpful and there seems to be good insights here.

have problem with 4x4. rear tires will spin for while, then front tires will jump in.
changed oil but still same

2007 Ranger 700 efi. Maintenance light on. when requesting maint codes it never sends a 12 (Start Diagnostic), just a single 61 (End of Diagnostic) and ends. Yet the maint indicator remains present. Ever see this before?

Last night I finally got this sportsman running well, this morning I took it off the jacks and now of course it won't idle, at all. It runs fine up and down the road but it simply will not maintain idle. I tried adjusting the throttle cable up on the handlebars and no matter how far I turn it one way or the other it makes no difference. And I am totally stumped and pretty frustrated. If anyone has any advice for me I would really appreciate it.

I read somewhere that you can use cv axles from a 2000 500 in place of the junk u joint style rear axles on 1999 335. I bought the axles and whenI went to install them the upper cv hits the upper A arm mounting bracket. Has anyone tried this? What other parts do I need?

Hey y'all I'm new to the hole form thing but I got a Polaris and a few questions to go with it. First I got a 2008 outlaw 525 IRS I do mostly mudding and trail riding its bone stock and I'd like to change that I'm hearing that boring the carb is a good power boost any thoughts on that? And also I'm thanking of putting an hfm slip on exhaust on along with a jet kit is that a good exhaust for a outlaw or is there something better? Thanks
