exhaust

i feel like my exhaust noise has gotten louder? is that a thing that happens and its time for a new exhaust or muffler?

my 570 2014 is easily twice as loud as my buddies 900....

any suggestions?

Considering Defender vs Ranger

Hey there. New to this site, have had numerous brp products in my life. I was fairly set on a Ranger XP but all the negative reviews and my own personal experiences are pushing me away from Polaris. Checked out the can am’s yesterday and they look nice. I’m mainly using the rig for yard work, snow plowing, hunting, food plots. Would the HD8 suffice? Is there enough power? Would love some feedback from current 800 owners.

engine swap

Has anyone done a 700 carb to 700 EFI full engine swap on their Sportsman? Just curious of what all would need to be changed out....

Additionally I recently installed a new Gates belt and now the damn thing has idle creep and is a PITA to shift. Hoping it just needs worn in and seated. It went on very easy.

Recall on 2018 renegades

Fuel splashing out when opening gas cap. Could cause a fire. Well my 2014 Outlander will do this too. BRP going to fix mine too, not likely.

Heat shield instruction

Just got this right side Heat shield for my 570 utility, can't get the instruction off the dealers site. Where does the two plastic washers go? Most important where does the large flexible heat material go?

New Tires

Wanting new tires for my 2017 Sportsman xp 1000. Question to the group is, will 28x11x14 and 28x9x14 be good on stock wheels and suspension? I am considering the Kenda Bear Claws. Any is appreciated. I live in Delaware so only trail riding and snow in the winter riding.

Buying used

I am new to the utv world... I am looking at a 2017 800 commander dps with roughly 200 miles on it... I can get it for 8500 bucks? I have yet to look at it other than pictures... is this a good deal and is there any issues with this year/model? Seems like a deal hard to pass up. Machine looks clean in the pics.
