Any help or opinions are greatly appreciated, I have a 2008 Sportsman 800 with 1200 miles of light use, I have owned since new. Due to a 4wd problem (constantly locked in) I took out my front differential hoping to find the common blown up sprague cage, well that I did not. Every thing appears to be in great condition and intact other than when I took out the output pistons and parts on the drivers side I found wrapped around the output pistons was a bunch of black plastic material. It appears the piston was rubbing against the black plastic ring section (see pic 1 zoom in) that comes as part of the case on both sides. I assume it is some type of a coil or something? Not sure if this is supposed to be ever touching or not. It almost seems like in a manual transmission you have the flywheel and pressure plate that might be slipping causing it to melt off instead of making full contact? Just not sure how these 2 parts are supposed to mate or not touch at all. I assume the 4wd is locked in because of the mess that I found(see pic 3). If you look at the second pic(zoom in) I also have 2 pretty good grooves worn in the armature piece not sure if this is supposed to happen either? I posted a few pics first should show the wear/melting on the whatever its called, second shows the mess on the workbench and third shows the melted pieces that are from the first pic. The passenger side does also have some wear on it but no real debris. Thanks to all who can help and hope I put this in the right section. If not please advise.

Just bought a 2015 850. Ran great first day but when I started out the next day the engine began hesitating when I throttled. Played around with it for half an hour and it ran great the rest of the day. Two days later I hopped on and it did the same thing. It idles fine, but when I give it gas it dies. I try to keep out of heat but it didn't help

I am working on a Xpedition 425 as the parts arrive in the mail. Today I received u-joints and while removing the old ones I noticed the propshaft yokes do not line up which makes me think the shaft is tweaked. It looks straight just by eyeballing it, but is this normal for a Polaris propshaft? I appreciate any help.

I've patiently waited six months for today. I purchased my Can Am last December, and today I had an opportunity to ride it. My friends said they would go easy on me, but talk is cheap. They were very helpful, especially in the safety training. Turning around on a narrow trail in the mountains is dicy at best.

We saw beautiful Rocky Mountain scenery the whole ride. I enjoyed the sections below the tree line as opposed to the "alpine tundra" up high. We were over 12k feet up. The wildflower bloom is just starting. We saw no other riders on our 23 mile jaunt.

I had to cover very rocky trails, very narrow trails, very wet creek crossings, very steep drop offs, very steep descents, very snow blocked trails, and a sunburned nose. We were riding about 3 and a half hours. All part of "going easy on me". Great fun!

My Outlander performed admirable, no issues. The DPS electric steering is a must have. The Can Am suspension soaked up all those boulders. I did not skid over a rock on this trip. I used 4wd quite a bit. And you sure would not want to break down 10 miles up some mountain trail. I shall never ride alone in the mountains.

So another person gets hooked on the ATV hobby. My friends were riding Arctic Cat 700s. It is about the same size as my Can Am. Both brands did exactly what they were designed for.
