Looking to upgrade wheels/tires in the near future

Hey guys,


Looking to upgrade the tires and wheels on my 17 outlander 850 xt.


Looking to stay with a 14" rim, think I found the rims I want.


Looking at a few options for tires...






29.5" maxis big horn 3.0's, guessing some footwell trimming will be needed? (wish they made a 28!!!)




28" mega mayhem's, assuming none/minor footwell trimming.




Also haven't rules out maxis big horn 2.0's, 28", no trimming?









Wheeler is used for trail riding, in the woods, and on dirt roads. I hope to maybe play in mud here and there, nothing that would require a rad relocate or snorkel. Thoughts on tire size type?


Our 08 brute force has some knock off big horns, been a great tire for plowing snow, woods, dirt roads. They do ok in muddy situations.




Thanks guys!

Is it possible to change original speedo to the newer style? Wrecked mine just seeing what my options would be. Thanks

hose off of water pump housing

Hey guys,


Was greasing up the unit yesterday and found a tube coming from the water pump. guessing it's a vent or weep. Do I need to get a new piece and run it up with the rest of the vent tubes?... to avoid it taking on water if I device do ride in some?

General ATV maintenance

I bought a 2012 sportsman 800efi last year for hunting and light use around the home. Not for riding fun. I’m new to ATVs but not new to light mechanic work on vehicles. Other than the oil changes on the motor what other periodic maintenance do you all do? I would be surprised if I put more than 20hrs of use on this bike a year. I just want to maximize it’s life. It currently has 275hrs and 2200miles on it. As stated it does not go into mud pits or anything. It gets me around my property for hunting and will occasionally plow my small driveway. The pervious owner did ride it and possibly abused it but obviously said they didn’t and that they took good care of it. Who really knows. It appears to burn a little oil. I can’t see or smell it but I had to add just a touch of oil to it between oil changes.

New here

High, bought a 570 xmr months ago and now im wanting to make some adjustments such as exhaust and fuel optimizer and later on down the road a clutch setup.

I have my eyes set on an exhaust system from Empire Industries. I like the fact you can get them ceramic coated. The only thing im hesitant about is the fact I have never heard one on a smaller bike.

Thomas Brown Earns First Win of The Season at RedBud National

The tension coming into round nine of the 2018 ATV Motocross National Championship (ATVMX) presented by CST Tires, an AMA National Championship, was already at an all-time high as the front-runners were locked in a very tight points battle. As race time drew near, the forecast was not looking to be in favor of the riders lining up.
