Hey guys, I didn't see a classified section on here and if this needs to be removed please do. I am looking for a factory takeoff muffler for a outlander 1000 before we go to trailfest for my wife. If you have one you want to donate or sell cheap please let me know through PM. Thanks!
Spotlight mounting
Just got some 4" led spotlights looking to mount to front of 06 sportsman . Anyone have any ideas as what looks good without drilling into plastic or bumper? Was also wondering if anyone knew how thick the Polaris accessory metal bumper is if it would be worth drilling and tapping the bumper and bolting the lights to it?

T-Map wiring harness
Hello All,
Purchased a new to me 06 sportsman 500 efi. Thought it was running well since I got it but after every trip out it would start to miss at a low rpm and run like Garbage.
I checked the throttle body area and wiggled the wires at the T-Map sensor and the machine would run like cap again and engine light come on. I also noticed the grommet was split and broken.
Instead of buying the aftermarket harness I went ahead and made my own buy using a 3 wire Grote light pigtail for the femal plugs taking it apart and adding the plugs to my factory harness. Whole set up cost me $6.50 . Crimped it on and the machine fired right up with no engine light.
Took the machine for a rip and it was breaking the back wheels loose getting on the throttle had never done that since I bought it as well as a smoother idle.
I hope this fixed the problem will keep you posted.

16′ outlander XMR 1K winch questions
Hey guys I have a 2016 outlander 1000 XMR
Winch issue is today was the first day I put into freespool , needed a good bit of cable and went to go back and engage and will not budge. Very little water riding so it not abused and only used like 4 times and today was the first time in free spool:/
I pulled clip ring and the cover off and it spotless no mud, and I see nothing visibly wrong .
I looked at the winch and it's a BRP oem warn PROvantage 3000...
I'm sure they are the bottom of the barrel but Warrenty do they have? Is it thru warn or can am? I would assume 1year electronic and limited lifetime parts?
Time to buy a warn winch not a BRP included warn winch bahahaha
Please tell me thoughts, I hate problems.
I have a buddy with a brand new warn provantage 3500 synthetic winch in the box he paid like 600 I think and told me 400 cash
Lmk thoughts, ideas , etc thanks

Polaris ATV Quality?
I am having real problems with new Polaris ATV's. I bought these all new,
2016 850 Sportsman - Very hot melted side plastic, no power steering, nearly impossible to shift and fuel gauge didn't work. Traded it in.
2017 850 Sportsman Touring - Fuel pump over heats (Replaced fuel tank) Replaced primary clutch bearings 3 times. Fuel pump overheated again last week so I'm taking it back in.
2017 1000 Sportsman - Fuel gauge didn't work and fuel pump over heated. Replaced fuel tank 3 times. Rear wheel bearings replaced and new front shock. Power train is now very loud so it's going back in.
Has Polaris given up on ATV's and concentrating on RZR. The repairs have been under warranty but that's about over. My family has bought 14 Polaris ATV's over the last 4 years but after these last 3, I may change brands. Anyone else having quality issues like I am?

6×6 heat shield possible problem
The heat shield (P/N: 715003431) that Can Am made for the 6x6 by the muffler that was for excessive heat on the bed and included a heat shield to protest the exposed gas tank. Well it turns out the shield installed by the gas tank can cause another problem, and that is it rubs against the gas tank and may rub all the way through. I am doing some maintenance and when removing the muffler, I saw that the shield had rubbed a gouge about ½” long and maybe 1/8” deep. It will be an easy fix to trim the shield back about 1” so it can’t touch the gas tank, and I will fill the gouge with epoxy but I thought it was worth mentioning to all 6x6 owners if they have that heat shield installed to check it.
2017 Polaris Sportmans 1000
I have been going back and forth with the dealer now for 1 week. I got the phone call yesterday and the manager told me out the door 11000.00 OTD. Is it worth it ? OR Should i drive 5 hours north of me to get the same bike for 10,700 ? I am really excited to purchase this beast. Thanks guys.
