Oil change 2018 Defender XT H10 question

The book says initial service not needed for 10 hrs or 200 hours. Is anyone changing their oil sooner than this? Also, is the oil from factory the same as the oil in the owners manual? Maybe Can Am wants a certain oil to stay in for 200 hrs? Picking up a new XT H10 today. Thanks.

I have no rear brake when using the Pedal - I have replaced the Master Cylinder -rear Caliper and pads , I can not get the rear Master Cylinder to build any pressure to bleed the caliper - I have tried everything I know including the leave a heavy object on the pedal overnight and still no pressure ...... I only get a a dribble of fluid from the caliper bleeder for the foot pedal !

2005 Sportsman 500 U-Joint Front

Hi folks, I tried to search here for a front propeller shaft u-joint. I was unable to find my answer.
I am wondering if anyone knows the Napa number for the u-joint.

2005 Sportsman 500 HO

I believe both u-joints on this shaft are the same. Correct? If so I may as well change them both while I am in there.
Any info appreciated. Thanks, Keith

Newbie Here

After years of research and not having a bike I finally pulled the trigger on a 2017 XTP 1000, I can hardly wait for it to come in and we have our annual Labor Day Dove xtravaganza coming up so there will be lots of opportunity to ride. Happy to be a part of the community and after 10 years with no bike happy to have something to ride.

Trail Must Haves!

Hello All,

Getting ready in September to head to Hatfield McCoy Trails for 4 days of riding. Always been an XC riding guy but just bought a 850XP LE Scrambler. Looking to build a "Must have" list for items our group will need on the trails. Love the forum to get ideas for better racks and storage for the scrambler as well as reserve gas tank placement, but really interested in what the group needs.

Already have regular items like tire plugs, air compressor, etc but interested in what everyone else says is a must have. Been reading about dust and over heating so does anyone have a neat trick for compressed water and cleaning off Radiator while on the trail? Any ideas like that would be helpful.

Thanks in advance!
