Any must do mods for the 17 Sporty 850 SP?

Got the Pursuit camo version... wanted more power than my 570, new body style and EPS, so Pulled the trigger and found a brand new one for $9500 out the door.

Haven't ridden it yet, probably on Sunday. Any things to look out for? I mainly trail ride, some mud but nothing crazy. Going to Hatfield McCoy in November...

Need to get the Polaris 3500lbs synthetic winch, which I just ordered for $329 including taxes, should be here next week. This one is plug and play I believe? Unlike the one I had on my 570...

The stock tires, I am not crazy about. I think they are 2 ply I read?

They are 26's, but I am considering a set of 27's... shouldn't need a reclutch with this much power. My thought it to go to 27's, and do 11" on the back and 9" on the front. Might slow down the power steering a tad at higher speeds?

I put the front and rear shocks from the softest positions, to the middle position of the adjustment range... I am 250lbs, but don't want them crazy stiff or to have the quad standing on its tip toes and make it more top heavy...

I had 2" offset rims on the 570 and I liked that wider stance, but this one seems almost the same width as the offset 570. Is that correct?

Am I missing anything else?

I don't plan to bury it in mud, but I do aggressive trail riding and there is some occasional mod and ruts...

Suggestions?

I am looking for a place to get an engine for my wheeler. I would prefer a used engine but willing to look at getting a remanufactured or rebuilt. If anyone has a crashed wheeler with a good engine I will purchase the engine. The following models have the engine I am looking for.

Converted

Ladies and gentlemen. Boys and girls of all ages, I introduce to you...........ME. How's she goin! Eh! My. And is hyperjuno and I'm from Chatham Kent Ontario. I first started to do g on a 14 popo 400ho. Tbh I love that machine. I still have it. However........ My wanted to start riding also. So as any good man would do, I went out and got an Artic Cat 450 core. It wasn't a bad little machine( haha haha I know that's a good joke). She hated the thing and for good reason. So as any woman would do, she took my popo. Now I had to ride the crap. I rode that thing hard. I tried to keep up with my buddies and their 570 and 700 and 1000. I did ok, sort of........ok not really. So brought was enough. I sold that piece of crap cat and went out and grabed an 09 pantie dropper........er.......I mean a renegade 800R. I've only had lucifer( that's what I named it) for only 3 days now and I'm so glad I finally see the light. I am converted. I AM A NEW MAN. hope to see some of you out there. If your from around southern Ontario Canada get in touch. Ciao.

2002 sportsman 700 clutches

I have an 02 sportsman 700 that i bought blown up a long while ago. I have since rebuild the motor with 800 internals new axles in the rear and lots of other little things. The thing is a lot of fun. I noticed today that my primary clutch is in very bad shape. Pretty good groove, some cracks, and worst of all parts of the actual housing are broken where the clutch slides. So needless to say before hunting season it need a new clutch. From what i have read i can get an 05+ clutch set (primary and secondary) and see some performance gains. I would like to find a used set to keep cost down. Does anyone know where i might be about to snag a set of clutches? I looked on ebay and everything is either junk or just the primary. Or do I just buy a new primary slap it on and call it a day? even that is $400+ Any help would be great guys.
