Elka Stage 3s Preload/Sag questions

Getting Elka Stage 3s for the 850 XT.

First thing will be adjusting the sag.
I know when sitting on it it should be around 30% sag.
But 30% of what?
30% of ground clearance to the frame?
30% of the ATV height without the rider? And if so, measured from where?
30% of the shock total travel? And if so, how do I know the total travel?

Thanks.

2018 Defender XMR

I have a Defender XMR

Changing the gear case it calls for 1.5 liters of 75-140

I put that in and it doesn’t register on the yellow dipstick where it should. I measured and know I got it all in there.

Anyone else had this issue?

Thanks

Good place to buy a slightly used ATV?

Hey everyone.

I am trying to find my first Can-am to purchase, but it is proving to be harder than I originally thought to find something to spend my money on. haha. Not the usual problem.

I am looking in that range of a year to a few years old, with low miles/taken care of. I don't want to pay brand new price when I am fine with slightly used. Looking for a Renegade XXC or XMR 1000. I can't even come close to finding something on CL or eBay. Are there certain places I should be looking? My dealer only has one used ATV currently, and they're the only dealer for 100 miles.

Any help would be appreciated!

2015 850 Touring transmission

New owner of 2015 850 sp touring with 600 miles. I’ve gone through most of the machine (all fluids, air filter, chassis lube ) to get ready to ride, but have a question about drive engagement. When sitting still, the machine clunks (especially in reverse) when the transmission engages. Seems ok while moving but the clunk engagement from stand still seems harder than I would expect. Anyone have insight???
