best tires for ~~~~

I got stock tires on a 2018-570. They have a tough time getting up "the wash" let me try and discribe, "the wash"

The wash is a hill, it's rocks and covered in wet leafs and a small creek. it's about 75 yards long at a 45° angle. There are some fairly large rocks in the way and I have to take a trees out. I got half way up last year, but I was sliding and spinning all the way.

I have no clue what tires to go to to give me better traction going up the wash.

Oh ya, on the way up, half way up it's dogleg right, it's an interesting climb.

Im not sure 'mud tires' would work, or 'snow tires'. there are TONS of wet leafs. when I go hunting I have to walk up the wash, it's a tough climb on foot. BTW< the "wash' is the only way to get to my back country. if you go straight out the back of my cabin, its 80' straight up, you can't even walk it. so the only way outback is to go up the wash.

So any suggestions would be apprciated

Joined the club

I've been lurking on several forums and finally decided the reliability of the grizzly did not replace all the power and ride features of a sportsman. I was in the right place at the right time and scooped up a 2015 Sportsman 1000 XP LE with 1100 miles for $4500. Itll need the fluids changed and 4 wheel bearings, and a crack on the rear plastic rack but no fender issue. Considering 850s were selling in the 7s around here I feel quite lucky. Looking forward to some wrenching and getting everything ready for riding this summer (NY).

HELP – Limp Home mode in Low Range Only

2010 Outlander 800r

Just got it, it's definitely lived a hard life..been working on a lot of small issues but I cannot get rid of the limp home mode error. It is only going into limp home when I put it in low range. So far, I've replaced all 4 gear selector switches on the trans, cleaned the speed sensor, and changed the oil in the trans.

Does anyone know which wire/selector switch sends the signal to the computer for low range so I can check the wiring?

Any other suggestions?

Thanks for any advise!

2016 Sportsman 850 no electrical power

My friend has a 2016 Sportsman 850 with only 4 hours use and 200 kms on it, it is like new. It had the original battery in it and he did not have it on a maintainer. He recently tried to start it and it had no power at all to the cluster or anything else so he bought a new battery and installed it. All the connections are in place, fuses, breakers are good but still no power. I got him to check to see if there is any power to the ignition switch and there is none, the kill switch is on and switching it a bunch of times had no effect, the connections to the kill switch are clean and not at all corroded. The wiring diagram shows some fusible links, anyone know where they are located and if they could be the issue? Anything else we could check or other known issues that could cause this? I am hoping it is not the ECM.

Thanks in advance for any help.
