Hey guys. As you know I am new here. I converted from Kawasaki and I love my defender!!! I do have questions about the machine though. First, Do I need to be worried about the reverse chain? I was shocked when I looked at the parts manual and saw it had a chain. I know the polaris guys have a time with their reverse chains. If they are a problem, what recommendation do you have to beef it up. Second, I am wanting to run some wires through my cage to the roof. I see at the top of the cage on the drivers side there is a hole there already. Is there a hole at the bottom of the cage behind the dash or something? How is everyone running their wires to the roof? Third, I have seen on youtube some guys are running 33" tires and say they didn't have to add a lift. Is this actually possible? Thanks for any answers you may have to my questions.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,
does anybody have the 2019 Outlander max xt-p 1000 yellow paint code?

I plan to have a few road trips here and there when I am comfortable with the new machine. Not least for the getting to the government safety check when that comes around in a few years but also for other outings.



We (perhaps obviously...) have a legal requirement for EU approved road legal tires, and also for proper snow tires in the winter - ideally studded in my experience with other vehicles - and a summer relevant tire too. I am not a fan of all seasons if there is such a thing.


The surfaces for such trips are asphalt and hard pack and a tiny bit of gravel - probably mostly a 50/50 mix of the first two as I would be sticking to our rural back roads rather than the main roads. In the winter they may or may not be covered in all the various different depths and types of snow and ice. It can go down to -30C (-22F) coldest.



So I am after some recommendations please! I am after the right tools for the job because its worth it to be safe and legal.

Hey, I Was given a 1995 trail boss and was working on the rear brake and it looks like its missing what ever holds the brake disc on the shaft. I can't seem to find out what holds it on. Can anyone tell me what i need and where to get it. Thanks for any help.

25 miles of break in riding. Am I good to start getting into the throttle more? Love this machine already!

Hi all. Just picked up a very clean banana yellow 700.
The tires are just ok and if I'm going to replace them I'd like to go to 27's.
It already has a new aftermarket clutch that revs up to where I think that part would be good.
So what do I need to do to fit 27"? Do I need a 2" lift, will that axle angle be too much, would I need wheel spacers?
The fronts would then be 1" wider and that might rub the front shock?
I'm sure many of you have done this, I'm hoping you can tell me what I'd need to do.
Thanks!
