Sportsman 850 troubleshoot

I have a 2017 sportsman 850, I was going downhill in low with the engine brake on but it didn't engage until the bottom of the hill when I talked the throttle. I was moving fast and it came to a slamming halt. I smelt burning rubber and sounded like the belt started screeching. Now I can't get it out of low unless I turn the engine off. The rest are very stiff. Normally when sitting still and putting into gear it won't move until the rpm go up, now as soon as I'm in great wants to move. The belt looks fine. I rode the rest of the day with no real issues. I definitely broke something tho and don't know where to start to figure out what I did to it. Somebody please help

denali plow cutting edge??

they send 2 cutting edges with the plow, has anyone installed both at once ? it would make it thicker and wear slower... my only complaint with the whole plow setup is the cutting edge installation, having to use an open ended wrench to tighten all the bolts, can’t imagine how bad it’s gonna suck to remove them after several years of rust, so i was thinking if you doubled up the thickness it would last twice as long

2017 Polaris highlifter

I bought a 2017, a year ago. Brand new with 2 miles on it (test drives). The first day I had it I decided to take it out and see how fast I could get it going since my 550 topped out at about 65ish mph. The highlifter (850) tops out at 50mph and the engine sorta putters like theres a governor on it....anyone know if somthings wrong with it or if it's just normal?

My new 2019 Defender HD10 XMR

Just wanted to say hello to everyone. I bought my first ever Can Am yesterday. I went looking for a new Ranger and came home with a Defender HD10 XMR. I loved the looks of it, and then I drove it and knew I had to have it. I love how big/tall it is. The arched A arms are and nice and the new bigger shocks on the ‘19 model are decent for what I’ll be doing. I got the poly roof for it, but I’d also like to find a front windshield that is easy to take on/off as I won’t always use it. Also, I need to find a cover. Does anyone know of something less than $100 that will fit it properly? Just something to keep the dust off it when sitting in my shop. I found a few but I’m not sure they are big enough. Also, where do I find some half doors? Does anyone make any decent half doors? Any recommendations on a “all in one” type of stereo system that produces good sound?

Any help/tips would be greatly appreciated.

Idiot lights

06/Outlander Max 400, Warning lights came on and stayed on after a long ride, also 4wd/2wd indicator light went out. Oil and Rad fluid seem fine. Speedometer hasn't worked for a few years. It seems to be working fine, and switching for 4wd to 2wd as far as I know. Need some help please, deer hunting just around the corner and I am away at work and wont be able to get it into shop before deer season opens...posted in another forum might have been wrong place to post. Anyway any thoughts or advice greatly appreciated

Can I replace EBS w/Non-EBS Drive Clutch??

I smoked my drive clutch on my Sportsman 500 with EBS and I'm considering replacing with a non-EBS drive clutch. The EBS for me is really unimportant as a feature. My property is flat and level so I'm not concerned about losing this feature.
Is this as simple as just buying a Non-EBS clutch and swapping it out? or are there any other considerations. I guess I'm unsure if all of the EBS functionality is contained in the drive clutch itself?
Your technical help is appreciated!
Thanks, Dave

I need help figuring out my Plow mount

I recently bought a 1997 sportsman 500 from the original owner with a Polaris plow manual lift. I have all the push plates and bolts, but I can't figure out where they go. I've been searching online for days and can't seem to find a guide on how to install plow mounts on this style. I'll include pics of the push plates and brackets. If anyone could shed some light that would be excellent thank you
