Hey everyone, I'm new to the forum. I just got a 95 Explorer 400 in pretty good shape. I just went through the whole quad and changed all the fluids, adjusted the chains etc. Are there any mods you could recommend? I'm not worried about top speed at all as I ride with my family. It already has Maxis Mud Bug tires and I just installed a two up seat. The quad has 1600 on the odometer. I'm assuming it's miles ? What mileage should I expect out of it before it needs the top end done ? Thanks !

With less than 100 miles on a 2016 Commander Max 1000, the vehicle dies when warm (very quickly in hot weather) and then won't restart. Rapid clicking can be heard in the fuse area. Called the dealer and the service tech said he'd "never heard of anything like that"... I'll pop the cover and check to see what all is in there. Are there relays in there as well as fuses? Anyone here familiar with something similar?? Thanks so much!!

I am considering upgrading my 4 wheeler and am interested in peoples thoughts about what I should buy to meet my purposes.

In short, I need a 4 wheeler to push "snow" around over winter and not a great deal more than that. As such, it would need a plow (electronic or hydraulically operated if possible - not winch operated)

As said, it's only use, 99% of the time, will be for snow removal on my property.

Hello all , new to the forums here just want to say thank you for all the helpful tips so far.

I recently purchased a 2006 sportsman 500 ho efi with 5000km. Great condition overall. I was out riding last weekend and noticed the machine was stuck in awd no matter what I did I couldn't get it out.

This week I drained the fluid and disassemble the front differential and didn't see any damage to the cage or rollers. All gears gears bearings and seals are good. The armature plate had some wear rings on the back side .

When I applied 12 volts the armature would stick to the "case side" and with power removed it will not unlock.

I ordered a new John Deere armature installed it and bench test does the same , except when I rotate the prop shaft in reverse direction it will unlock the armature.

Put the differential in and went for a test ride awd engages but to disengage i need to put the machine in reverse for a brief second then back to high and it is back in 2wd.

Anybody have this problem? I like my equipment working as it should but maybe this is just a quirk with the machine?

Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks

I've got. 2010 renegade 800xxc and I had the issues with the stator plug melting and burning the wires. So I replaced all of that. Should I be concerned that it damaged the stator or should it be ok?

On my 2017 Copper 1000, I took the rear shocks off to install some haeavy duty springs as the factory ones are to soft to carry my fat rear wiithout it riding too low.

When I removed them on one side, the top mount bushing is completely worn out:eek. The other side is fine. It is no longer under warranty so I will see if the dealer has one or can get a replacement bushing. Hopefully the new springs will help.:worried:

My brother picked up the springs at his local dealer so I can't tell you yet what they are other than they are supposed to be heavy duty ones for my 1000.

I need a new front fender for my white 2014 Sportsman 570 Touring.

Is that the right part number?

I have been looking for a new BRIGHT as possible LED light for a while now to fill my ATV needs for off shore ice fishing use. The need I was looking to fill was to light as far in front of me as possible to monitor the ice conditions when going out when dark or returning back in the dark. I did a internet search and came upon this sight Automatcentral.com - PIAA RF6 6000K 6" LED Driving Light Bar" and contacted Andrew and told him I wanted BRIGHT and LONG DISTANCE. Andrew assured me that he had just what I wanted, and agreed to send me a PIAA RF6 6000K 6" LED light for me to try at no charge with the agreement if it's the light that fills my need I'll post a review on it. I said "send it I'll try it" but it must be better than any LED light on the market.

I did receive the light we discussed shipped in a isolated protected shipping container and it was complete with multiple mounting bracket options, all hardware and allen wrenches, complete wire loom with inline fuse, pre-wired on/off switch and factory wire ends already installed for ease of installation. Also included was a complete illustrated instruction package with wire diagram.

It was my choice to use the angle side mount brackets and attach the light directly to the front ATV guard.

Here are a few pictures of just the stock ATV headlights, PIAA light, and with both ATV stock headlights and the PIAA light on.

This is a picture out in the street looking ahead 2 city blocks with stock ATV headlights and the PIAA LED on WOW!!!

It was my choice to use the self adhesive double stick tape included in kit to mount the control switch to the brake reservoir in a very handy spot.

This PIAA LED light was very easy to install, VERY BRIGHT WHITE LIGHT, and looks AWESUM on the front of my ATV. I believe by seeing this installed, test driving on the road it will no doubt give me the light output I was looking for.


Can't wait for old man winter to lock up Green Bay this winter!

Hello all! Recently purchased a 2017 outlander 850xmr. Got 2.5hrs on her so far and that thing is a beast! Did quite a bit of reading on here before making my purchase and look forward to tapping all the knowledge on this forum. Any tips or advice for a new can am owner is welcome and eagerly awaited. :th_smiliethumbsup:

Hey all! Have a 2017 1000r xmr and have to say, kinda dissapointed I spent the extra money on the 1000. Have 2 other buddies with stock 650 and 800 outlanders and they are exact same speed. Have raced them in 2wd and 4wd high and low multiple times and they are all even throughout the race. The 1000 may pull a little bit after 45, but barely. Just want to get everyone's thoughts on this. Was buying the 1000 with the extra money??
