Does anybody know what aftermarket model spark plug to use? Thanks in advance.

I’ve been searching for a company willing to make an MX style seat cover for the Scrammy for quite a while. I’ve found a few but none able to make it without paying to ship my seat to them and then paying to ship it back, taking the bill way above the worth of the seat cover, until now.
As I enjoy a very spirited style of riding, outside of the factory suspension and lack of bottom end, the one main area I feel the Scrambler really lacks in stock form is the seat cover. Way too slippery, especially once muddy and wet.
Speaking of mud... Mud Motorsports created a seat cover for Teixera when they were having a magazine article documented on the Scrambler modifications they’ve manufactured through a lot of R&D.
I came up with a rough draft as seen attached. The only change I’ve made is removing the Polaris lettering from the sides, wasn’t worth another $50 to me.
Anyway stay tuned for the final product once I receive it.

I have a 2003 can am 400 and when at low speeds runs like as if it where governed, at mid to high range runs great, so far adjusted valves rebuilt carb, cleaned all ground connections.

Bolts go through the differential ?

What are the
Pros and Cons ?

As i am new to this fourm,just retired

Thankyou for your help going forward

I have some land,it is appox 70% trees ,maintenance is required such as removing fallen trees and such.

I am thinking that a 650 Max XT would work for me as the longer wheel base ,,,is this the right idea?

I have appox 126 acres of property(purchased in 2009)
I just retired
Looking to purchased 650 max xt
Will use it for work(property maintenance) and trail riding

Many persons use the land now as i do not mind as all respect that it is private property and not to be destroyed or litter left behind

Mine is now covered with the IB plates and I am thinking i don't want to cut them.

What are others doing for front tow points without the OEM loop/point?
thanks

Started my Outlaw drove it up the drive way and back . put it in REVERSE to back up, stalled it and have not been able to start it sense . it was low on gas so i filled it with gas .still not starting . figured maybe low on gas picked some dirt up , i took off the carb and cleaned it i loosened the adjuster for the idle on the carb . it is still not adjusted. if it is not adjusted will it still allow fuel into the part of the carb the starts the Outlaw . I am lost . i have done the following to it to start it
1, cleaned air intake
2, cleaned carb
3, new spark plug

Hello all, I've spent some time looking around and have lots of questions that of course have many biased answers

Do I need to worry about heat?? I see people making a big fuss over heating problems, along with the machine running lean and needing a pipe / programming. Is it true these machines are choked off that bad from factory to make emissions tests? Is that actully a suggested mod at this point and not just being done for power?

I also see a big suggestion to remove lots of plastics to help air flow, and possibly add a fan?

What about the fuss on the diffs? Even the dealer made me feel iffy about them when trying to upsell the warranty. I did get 1.5 years, it will be well used in that time. So I figure if it's gonna break, I'll break it by then.

The rear bushings and brakes seem to be the only common problem that everyone agrees on... And really not much of an issue lol, easy fix. It looks like you just need to do basic maintenance on these machines and not treat them like an old Honda. Grease regularly and check bushing and bearings

One thing I would like to find soon is a nice light bar. Been searching and havent found one I like for a fair price, any suggestions? I tried doing a search in the forum and didn't find much.

I put a kimpex seat on, and it's the one with the stupid velcro seat and never noticed until I was installing it. Has anyone tried to fasten that down better? I have it attached with the velcro but find it still can move around just enough to annoy me

I was thinking my first upgrades would be a nice set of skid plates, but with all this heat fuss I'm wondering if I should be looking into the muffler/programmer?? What's users thoughts on all this? I see about an equal number of people saying they have 10 000km on them with no issues other then normal things. And I see others saying they melted all kinds of things in the first few hundred km's??

Love to see some pics of other 650s. Especially ones with some goodies added on. I have a dirtbike, so I'm happy to leave this thing as close to stock as possible, when I wanna go all out, it's on that. But this bike will be driven hard so I don't mind adding on a few things to help with that. It will be driven two up a fair bit, used for a couple cord of wood every year, and as a snow plow for a decent size driveway.


Thanks from Nova Scotia!

had no awd on driverside. armature 3 tab plate not magnetizing troubleshooting lead me to replace front coil & sleeve. after repair completed awd turned on fine but NOW WILL NOT disengage on driver side/repaired side. new fluid in hub, could I have used too much silicone around coil hub & or sleeve? tried getting it to disengage by putting it reverse won't disengage. Don't have torque wrenches but I have had both front hubs off in the past & never had issues when I put it all back together. I tried to be careful putting new sleeve on over coil, used a flat block to gently tap new sleeve evenly over coil. never had awd disengaging problems before except for the having to reverse/back up to un lock it. Is the gap off between the new sleeve and the inner ring that's on the other side of the coil?? (the inner part that the coil slides over)
