Hello Everybody, I thought I would let everyone know what I did just in case someone is interested.

I took my stock muffler off and I cut it around the weld on the intake side of muffler and pulled off the end cap. Inside on the intake side of the muffler, it extends about 5 inches inside the muffler and it chokes down the pipe about 1/4 of the overall size, (so from 2 inch to 1.5 inches), ( I wish I would have taken some pictures) :crying
I cut off the choked down part of the pipe and then inside the muffler body it has a baffle plate that is only half drilled, I opened that up as well with a 3/8" drill (I made 8 more holes on the top side of the baffle plate)
I welded it back together and put it back on, me and my friends went on a about a 3 hour ride on some faster trails :devil
I noticed that after about an hour of riding that it got a little louder and the top end throttle response was a little snappier. Me and one of my friends have identical machines and we have always run about the same, as far as performance. Now I start pulling away from him around 50 MPH, (not drastic but noticeable) I kind of figured that was because I opened up the exhaust a little.

This is just an FYI for other people like me that like to tinker and don't want to spend a bunch of money on aftermarket exhaust. Like I said I wish I would have took some pictures to explain, but if you decide to do it you will understand once you cut off the end cap.

Hello everybody, I have done some research on this forum on putting bed liner on the fenders of 4 wheelers, I have read almost all of the comments, but no one has put up any follow ups on LONG TERM results and whats working and whats not.
I am looking at doing it to my 4 wheeler this winter but I would like to make very sure of what I am putting on is going to work and last.
I am wondering results of doing it your self over taking the fenders in and having them done professionally (texture, looks, thickness, price) also what was used if done yourself? or who did you have do it?

Any information would be greatly appreciated

i have 96 blazer and when i got it she needed a belt i bought on for it on i think ebay it said it would fit mine but when i put it on it was not as tight as my 02's belt so i just went with it but it hits the protective case when idling sometimes and when im about to move i dont think its the right belt and was wondering is there a way to adjust the clutches or if someone can redirect me to a new belt that will fit.... thank you

Ok Cdi went in my sons bike oem and some aftermarket seem to expensive just wondering if anyone one here has used scdrappydogscooters products seems a lot cheaper and which Cdi # they used ?

Looking for information on what the RPMs need to/should be under to shift gears.

Thanks.

Being as this is my very first ATV I got to wondering..
I see a ton of threads on here and other sites when someone adds this and that to their four wheeler and it made me ask myself..

How much is to much? What can these handle as far as electrical add on's go?

On a car/truck wanna add more buy a bigger alternator.

Your thoughts?

TIA

I have a couple questions. I want to add a 7 light bar to my 09 850xp, the light bar is 35w , I would like unplug my upper light pod and hook led light to existing headlight wires so original switch works light. First question is led light leads are 16ga wire and headlight wires are what looks to be 20ga, will this be a problem, headlight is 50w. Second question is where can I find a male mate to the female plug that hooks to the headlight bulb ? Thanks.

My dash is flashing hot on 2013 500 ho but its cold

Ok I do a lot or HEAVY off roading, big mud bogs big hill climbs and a lot of winching, in very remote country where reliability is my main concern.
I've been in 4x4ing all my life so I know what is problematic while 4x4ing and what to expect
I've come off an old hond foreman 450 that was just not capiable enough any more

I bought an 09 800 outlander, now I understand it is 10 years old and will have some issues that need attention
but f@#k me!!!!

Power and handling is amazing!

But EVERY time I ride this thing it goes into limp mode
Is this the reliability I can expect from a canam?

Last trip away 4 mins off the trailer on a gravel road going 20km/hr on a cold day
"HI temp limp mode"

The next morning I thrash it for 2 hrs in the hot sun and mud bogs before it does it again

Next time another light ride 15 mins and "hi temp" again

Some times it is a bit warm but most times I can touch the rad and the jugs so I know it's not hot.

-fully serviced all fluids
-rad lifted
-fan works
-Bled the cooling system multiple times
-fully charged battery

My thoughts at this stage are stat or temp sensor anyone have any input or help?

At this point I am severely disappointed in buying a canam.
