decided to sell my outlander 570 with 1500 miles on it.
to be honest my 570 sounded and felt like something was going to fall apart at any time.
there were more drivetrain and other clunks and noises that made me weary about something major failing after reading for the past year and a half about diffs and other issues with can-am
im not here to bash can-am but just giving some insight on why i sold it but i might not of had any problems with it but i was not going to find out.
the rotax is a great engine and they are fun to ride but i think it is at a price you pay.
i pulled regular maintenance and more on my 570...i was always working on it.
couldn't be more happier to have picked up a 2013 king quad 500 anniversary power steering model with 641 miles on it.
what a great riding/driving quality machine.
we all drive different cars and atvs.....doesn't matter as we are all supporting the sport.:aniwheeler6:

Question, I have a 2013 Sportsman with 3000 miles on it, When I jacked up the front end and checked the front wheels for play the left one does have play when I grabbed the 6 and 12 oclock position and wiggled it, does this mean the wheel bearing is bad? or the ball joint? or both?
If it is the wheel bearing can I change it without taking the whole strut off? How much wiggle is OK?
Sorry for all the questions but this is my first ATV and if I bring this in it is going to cost alot of money.
Thx for any information.

Sold my 1992 Polaris and bought a 2011 Outlander 500 EFI.

Recently purchased 2017 650 max. My first Can Am. I've owned Honda, Polaris, and 2 Brute Force's. Very happy with purchase. Looking to install skid plates soon. Will the flex plow mount work with the Ricochet skid plates?

Hey guys I need some help on what i may need to take the snorkels off my wheeler and put it back to stock. Im sick on dealing with the wardens. I bought it with the snorkel its a 2007 outlander 800 so i have no idea what i gotta do to put it back to stock. Please help!!

To those of you who have a 03 05 Magnum. I have ordered a factory service manual for my 04 Magnum 330 4x4. Engine had knock-swapped out identical 330 off 05 I think. Where does the lead of the cdi ( not ecm)-black with bullet connector connect to? Had my grounds and ignition coil run correctly. Thought it was connected to stator lead-cant be right ran fine and was charging for 15 minutes and took out ecm. (&^%&*$$!!!) Only way could get it to fire was connected to stator lead off ecm-must not be right otherwise wouldn.t have damaged it-still fires and runs but can only run for 30 seconds starts to overheat cdi. No longer charging, any help would be appreciated.

I am working on an 09 Sportman 850 and the clutch does not want to disengage. The guy that owns it put a new belt on it and that is dragging and of course makes it almost impossible to shift. On the older machines I have done shims to align the clutches. But the service manual doesn't make any reference to this and the transmission is a a completely different setup. Short of disassembling the clutches what should I be looking for?

Hey guys, im looking for some advice with my new unit, 2015 outlander xt 800.Bare with me please,i'm new to these as i'm coming from a brute force 650 to this. it currently has a new MudnWheels 2.0 rear diff, 27x12x14 zilla tires, radiator relocate, snorkels, new air filter, and a Yoshimira/can am slip on exhaust. I have a buddy selling a PC5 programmer wanting to trade me my outlaw 2 tires that came on the bike when i bought it. its currently mapped for a outlander 1000, is there any one on this forum who can sell or send me a map for my outlander 800 with the pipe? its currently surging a little at idle when cold and will sputter and almost die when cold if you give it throttle to move. if you let it warm up its perfectly fine, seems to me like its lean. Any ideas with this issue? it only has 400 miles on it and i run seafoam to keep it clean. fresh fluids everywhere on the bike also.

Secondly, it is saying key not recognized. If i wiggle the key around itll start just fine. I have a brand new ignition for it here and was wondering what all went into programming it and/or the key to get it to start like it should without having to mess with the key and risk being stranded away from home.
Thanks in advance, i greatly appreciate this forum .
