Sportsman 800 CVT belt replacement

I have a 2006 Sportsman 800 and want to replace the belt.

My father in law said he had replaced the belt on his ranger without removing the clutch so I stripped my 800 down to the clutch and it looks like it would be possible to stretch the old belt off and possibly get the new one rolled on.

Has anyone tried this before or does anyone have an alternative method to remove the clutch without the puller?

First time can am owner

Hey guys. Names Travis, recently purchased a 2017 renegade 850 xxc. I live in about the most northern part of Pennsylvania you could go. 2 miles from good old Lake Erie. Interested in definitely upgrading my bike as the time goes on. Already purchased a tuner from thebom.

Maverick belt on a 2017 850 gade

I've been hearing a lot of people with 800 motors using maverick belts due to them being more heavy duty. Do the maverick belts also work on the renegade 850 bikes? Any down falls ?

SSRT AND Bloody Skillet Ride

The July 22nd ride is quickly approaching. If you already have an SSRT pass and plan on attending, let us know. If you do not have a pass, you still have time to mail on in or you can pick one up the day of the ride from Newmans Sandwich shop. They open at 9am.
If no one needs a pass, we can push the ride time up to 8am, as we plan on making it a 100 mile trip. BRING YOUR OWN GAS AND MAKE SURE YOUR BIKE IS IN TIP TOP SHAPE.
Who is interested in going?

fuel controller question

a) will it make it run cooler?
b) install difficulty?
c) any specific model/brand to look for? I found one on google, which EJK for 225usd, is this any good?

i'm mainly looking to decrease the heat which drives me nuts. riding with shorts impossible. power is secondary. also don't want to shorten its life...

Hello from Mn.

Hello to everyone,
First time Can-Am owner. Been around a lot of them. Very popular brand here. Always impressed with their power. Purchased a 2017 Maverick XC. Went with the idea of getting a Commander but couldn't get by the Maverick. Little over 200 miles on it now, its clear I made the right choice. Last side x side was a Polaris Ranger, good machine, just lacked the power I wanted. Winch, roof, half windshield and back screen added at dealer and installed back and interior LED's at home. Really like these kind of forums, great info on common problems and the things people are doing to their machines. Everybody have a great day. Brian
