Setting valves with decompression

Just something that makes me curious...A can-am with centrifical decompression...setting valves on a cold NON-running engine, would it not be prudent, that the centrifical weight be held in the running position to set the exhaust valve clearance correctly...If not the valve is being held slightly open at compression TDC...If you set them like that when the engine ran it would have a greatly increased clearance and not allow decompression...Or am I missing something

Example...pin pushes valve 008 thou decompression non running and you set exaust valve with 004 thou clearance, now you have 008 thou less lobe and 004 thou added clearance...Running you would have 012 thou clearance. ???????...:th_smiliefrustrated

Changing diff fluid

new here... Am i the only one who finds changing the diff fluid on the 2014 outlander 500 a royal pain in the ass? Any tricks or advice you guys can offer?

Are the xt shocks really bad, or is everyone exagerating?

Looking at a 650 xt or something, but I read everywhere that the shocks are bad and that you need the fox shocks or something else.
Are they really bad, are the fox shocks really better? I can't figure out what I want or need.

The can am dealer says that I only need those for mega jumps, and I read here that they are good at everything.
I do gravel trail riding/hunting, sometimes fast, sometimes lots of potholes, and technical forest trail riding.

2018 Outlander XXC or Renegade XXC

Hey guys,
I posted this same thread in the Outlander section.

Im wanting to get back into bikes again.
Im currently ride or driving a Polaris Rzr and was looking at the Renegade XXC until I saw the Outlander XXC and was kinda
blown away. A utility quad with sport suspension seems awesome! Its a few hundred lbs heavier though.

What do you guys think?
Should I still get a Renegade?

Ive owned utility quads before. I owned a Polaris sportsman, and a Can Am outlander 500 and the reason I sold it was
because I got really bored with it.
I wanted something with 4 wheel drive but something more fun!

What do you guys think?

Thanks
