Picked up a 15 SP850, all stock. Only has 72 hrs on it. Guy says it backfired then quit running, then wouldn't start. Check compression, rear cylinder was good but front cylinder had 0psi, none. So I Pulled motor, started the tear down, The top of the piston above the top ring has broken apart, causing some damage to the cylinder head, not sure if theres somewhere that it caan be repaired or not as its not cracked or has huge gouges in it. The rear cylinder that had good compression has part of the top of piston broken too.

Few questions:

1: how to tell if the cylinders are nickasil? Dont you just stick a magnet to it and if it sticks its iron?

2: Posted pics of combustion chamber of cylinder head with damage, anywhere that could possibly repair this instead of buying new or good used head?

3: Is it completely necessary to pull flywheel to split case? Ill order the special tool if i have to I just dont see why it would hinder the bottom end coming off

I have a 2006 Outlander 400 STD. The brake light won't turn off. I have bled the brakes and changer the brake light switch but it is still on. Any Ideas?

Thanks in Advance

Hey Guys,

My 2017 Sportsman bogs hard when I first hit the throttle. It'll bog for a second then pick up and be fine, is there something that I could look into that would be causing this???

Thanks!

Hi all, wondering if anyone out there has the same setup as me and has any advice.
I have a 2018 outlander max XT 650 and a 2009 Ram 1500 quad cab with the 6.5’ box. I usually haul my quad on a small trailer and life is good.

I am looking at purchasing a 19’ hybrid travel trailer that would force me to put my outty in the box of my truck if I want to haul both.

With this I have 2 concerns and I wonder if anyone else has experience towing with a 09-18 ram with the 6.5’ box and a MAX unit in the box:
1)This is getting very close to maxing out the payload of my truck (1350lbs)
2)I don’t know if my tailgate can be pulled up at all or if it will have to stay totally flat, which may get in the way of the jack on the trailer tongue.

Any stories to share??

Hey All!


New to the site but not to the game. Just sold my 2015 Mav XMR and ordered a 2019 Outlander XMR. I know the 1000 is on the MAX frame and according to specs, it says the total length is 97". I guess my question is, will it fit in my long box F450 with the tailgate up and not smashing my rear window lol. I've done my best to search pics and threads but can't find an easy answer. I know overall length is based on bumper to bumper and I'm hoping the rear bumper will overhang my tailgate.


Thanks!

Couple questions 😀 how fast should you be going in low gear until you switch to high? And also what's the best type of gas to use in the sportsman 570?

Looking for tips and tricks! Which are the best winch and why? What breaks most often? Any true story to share? Thanks!
