Recently purchased a 2018 Outlander Max XT 570. I've ridden a few times and so far everything is going well. I have read about the heat issues on the leg and panels with previous models and the fact with stock shocks the rig seems to dive into corners, which it does and I'm getting used to that. Anyways, yesterday I was out at a riding area and I decided I would put my RV keys and the trailer keys along with 2 bottles of cold water in the rear trunk compartment. I must've rode no more than 30 minutes, stop for a break, reach in for a water, totally hot. Had to use a stick to move my keys because they were to hot to touch, so hot they would melt your skin off. What's the deal with that? That compartment is unusable if that's the way it's supposed to be.

Anyone found a way to do this? My Can Am used to do it until the engine cooled down after turning the key off.
The XP fan turns off with the key and the engine gets hotter according to the temp gauge.

Well over last weekend had something go wrong in clutch case. Started out with hole in plastic case unknowingly. Case got caked with dirt and grim. And ultimately wheeler stopped wanting to move. Took all apart and spent bunch of time cleaning both clutches. Somehow a weight was broken off. And none of rollers move due to mud behind them. Guess my questions are, can I just buy one new weight? All stock. How is best way to remove plastic caps to get the roller removed to clean up and inspect. Rollers do not look like they have flat spots. Realy don’t want to have to spend arm and a leg on full rebuild. Also we’re is best spot to purchase a primary inner sheave puller? Did some research but not to much of what I wAs looking for. Thanks in advance.

So what you all opinion?

I purchased a 92 trail boss 250 that has been sitting for over 2 years. I have drained the fuel and oil tanks, replaced the starter and put in a new spark plug and replaced the carburetor. It tries to kick off, but will not start completely. I have good spark and compression. Any suggestions?

I sure was amazed with the power of this machine! Fast forward the video 5 min to get to the Hunter trail riding part. Wow! Gobs of power! Did lots of mountain climbing with it. Easy riding wofe style. Enjoy.

Just got a 2018 450 that is supposed to be prewired for a winch. Can anyone tell me where to look for the wiring??? New to this machine & trying to get someone in service at my dealer is futile at best. I'd like to put a winch on the front but don't want to tear all the panels off if I don't have to. Thanks.

400 miles and the front driveshaft boot is ripped all the way around.

Does anyone here know how to go about replacing the boot? I have it duct taped for now. :sad

New armatures, new hillards, everything torqued to spec, followed instructions to a friggin tee, had good magnetic pull at the coils, and STILL no 4wd. Fluid is correct level, filled with demand drive.

The drivers side trys to kick it, but doesnt really do much, the passenger side spins constantly but can be stopped with my foot.

Im at my wits end boys, any ideas?
