2018 Can-Am Maverick DPS vs. 2018 Textron Wildcat X LTD: By the Numbers



Though neither the 2018 Can-Am Maverick DPS or Textron Wildcat X LTD are flagship models, they still have plenty to offer Sport UTV enthusiasts. Let’s see how they compare…by the numbers.

With all the latest advancements in machines, we often like to focus attention on the “sexy” picks – the newest machines with the amazing suspension and horsepower to spare. It can be easy to forget that the manufacturers produce some other machines that are pretty sexy in their own right, and have been for some time. Let’s see how the Can-Am Maverick DPS compares to the Textron Wildcat X LTD.

Looney tuned slip on

I have an 09 rene 800 and im thinking of putting on a looney tuned slip on and an hmf tuner. Looking for opinions and advice thanks

450 wont start, could it just be the battery?

Before I get into the actual problem, a bit of history is required. We purchased a 2014 sportsman 450 ho new in march of 2016, by October of that year it was stolen from our property. February 2018 we received a phone call that the quad had been recovered. We were very surprised to say the least. We pick it up and it starts after a little bit and we are able to drive it into the pick up. It starts right away to drive it off the truck. It is parked and turned off. We try to start it again to pull it in and it doesn't start. There is no power at all. We thought it could be the battery if it wasn't charged or on a battery tender, but that did not work either. There was a new ignition installed as it was stolen without the keys.
We know nothing that happened between 10/16 and 2/18.
I would like to fix it to sell, so i do not want to put hundreds into it. Is there anything i can do at home before bringing it into a dealership? I am not mechanical but i am good at following directions. I just don't know where to begin.
The quad itself is in pretty good condition, just a few scratches here and there. Theres also a skid plate on so the belly has been protected.

Thanks in advance for the replies!:smile

Hello from Jersey

Hi Everyone!
My name is Dee. Hubby is more of the quad person than I am, but I'm more of the technology person, and i like to learn about what exactly it is that i have. We have a 2018 570 LE and a 2016 450 H.O.. we don't have the most ideal riding terrain, but we make the best of it and enjoy it all.

New to me 16 Outlander 570 Max

Just picked this up. 200 miles on it. Anything to look out for or upgrade right away. Weekend cruiser for the wife and I but it will probably end up slightly abused when she’s not around

Mega Mayhems – 850sp

Hi all,

Could I tuck a set of 28 inch Mega Mayhems under a 2016 850sp without any lift or cutting anything apart? Please note, this would be on stock 14's and I am a big dude so I would likely have to crank the springs all the way up.

Any input would be appreciated. Was originally looking at HTR's but exploring options.

How to Improve Polaris Outlaw 110 Ground Clearance?

Hey -- I was wondering if one of you could give me some advice on my son's Outlaw 110. In back they have this little cage like think under the chain and rear break, ostensibly to protect them from rocks and such. The thing drastically reduces ground clearance -- without it ground clearance could be around 7 inches instead of 4. I'm tempted to remove it, but then of course the risk of some rock bashing the chain or rear axle or brake rises. What do you think? Or is there a skid plate out there one could put in place of it that doesn't go so far down? Seems to me you could have a protector there that does the job but only reduces ground clearance by an inch or so instead of 3. My son and I ride rocky forest trails in Missouri and he's getting caught up by that thing in back a bit too often.

Brand New 2018 Polaris Outlaw 110

Just picked up a Brand New (Still in the Crate) 2018 Polaris Outlaw 110 EFI for an AWESOME Price. (Went through the Costco Discount Program but the dealership said they can beat that price!!)

Bike even comes with a Matching Polaris Helmet - how cool is that!!

So far - very happy with the purchase - Only ridden about 1 hour around the neighborhood. I set the throttle screw in about half way and according to my phone GPS he's maxing out at 14mph.

I'll give him a few weeks to get use to the bike before increase the speed slowly (Top Speed is around 29mph).

I did however had to do some "Maintenance" work even though the bike is Brand New. I trust no one when it comes to maintenance work.

* Added about 6 pumps of grease into all 6 Zerk Points up front
* Minor adjustment to the rear brake lever for optimal performance
* Adjusted both the left and right side front brake lever - had a little too much freeplay
* Added Chain Wax to the Chain
* Change the spring settings to "Firmest" for both the 2 front springs and 1 rear spring - this should give a little more ground clearance without feeling too stiff. (I couldn't tell the difference)
* Hooked up a Battery Tender
* Took off all the "Unnecessary" stickers of the bike and add my own :)

Diff failure on new 2016 xp 1000

Fyi

guy i just met lost his diff last week ice fishing

less than 300 km, tires spinning on lake in 2wd. Gernaded cover and gears

dealer repaired under warranty.

Told him to leave it in awd all the time

cant believe polaris hasn't fixed this issue yet? Maybe another 3 or 4 year wait to fix like the heat issues that they had for the machines burning up plastics
