Am having to apply the slightest pressure on the throttle to maintain an idle on my 2007 EFI Sportsman 500. Is there a place that can provide just a touch of adjustment equivalent to this small pressure on the throttle?

Thanks,

Mike

Looking for a grippier/slightly taller foot peg on my sportsman and of course ran across the 80$ aftermarket aluminum grips from Rox Speed, but I cant justify spending that much loot. So, I started searching ebay for various styles of pegs/grips and ran across a bunch of stock takeoff pegs from people parting out atvs. I ended up finding a set that I liked off of a honda foreman or rancher that were low profile and had a slight kickup at the end to keep your foot from sliding off.

Obviously they need some sandblasting and paint before I install them.


My plan is to take a 36 grit flap wheel on a 4" grinder and knock down the nubs on the plastic footwells as seen in the pic below to give the metal grip a flat surface to sit on.

Then I will pop a couple holes in the foot well and either rivet or bolt the grip onto the foot well and the bolts/rivets will be in the recess on the bottom so they shouldnt get hung up on trail obstacles.

Thoughts? Comments? Suggestions? Total cost out of pocket will be about 11$ for the metal grips plus a flap wheel and a couple bux in bolts or rivets. Am I a fool for grinding the nubs off of the foot wells?

My 2008 Renegade 800 has been bogging down at near full throttle. Almost a stall, and if i keep the throttle mashed it will pick up in full power but boggs right back down. If i stop the unit shut it off and turn it right back on and and get on it, it is fine. But will shortly after do it again.

MODS: Snorkel kit, wheels tires, HMF Swamp XL, HMF fuel optimizer (currently disconnected to eliminate that being the cause.)

I am having issues with my power steering feeling jerky, not smooth, cuts in and out, sometimes I lose it completely. I have read on here about people getting the power steering updated with a new flash and it fixes all of these issues. I have contacted local dealer and Can Am directly. No one can find or “knows” of this power steering update. Could someone please help me out. I have tested my battery, checked all connections, replaced speed sensor, nothing has helped,

Thanks

I'm looking at a 2013 Can Am Outlander 400. This seller says:
Yes it goes forward just fine and goes backwards just fine.... it cuts off when you hit the brakes.

Thoughts?
