Tire help please

I just purchased a 2010 Outlander 800. First off, what a great machine. I love pretty much everything about it. The only downside seems to be the rip saw tires that came with it, not a fan at all.

I have been reading through countless threads in an attempt to find the best tire for my riding conditions. I live in central PA and need an all around tire. I was leaning toward zilla's, but they don't seem to handle rocky powerline style riding that I get into sometimes. My 660 Grizzly has ITP mud lites on it, but they just aren't great in hardpack situations. I was considering looking into Blackwater evolutions or sti black diamonds, but there seems to be rather limited information on these tires. Can anyone help that has used either of these two tires? Or recommend me a good all around Tire?

Thanks in advance for any help, tires are one of the most important upgrades, and I don't want to screw it up.

Can-am Factory Break In

When I was at a Can-Am dealer (not the actual dealer that I purchased our two Outlanders from; one 2017 450 and one 2018 450) I was told that Can-am does a factory break in on the motors. They fill it with fluids, run it for some length of time, change the oil and sent it out to the dealers.
Can anyone else confirms this? Any truth to that?


Thanks!

Part ID Help

I posted yesterday about having a knocking in the front of my 1996 Sportsman 500. Started going through it to rule out possible issues. Removed the front right hub to put new rotors on and a ball bearing fell out from back in there somewhere. Could have been the cause of the rattle. Most likely from a bearing but I'm not sure which one would have balls this big. Any help would be appreciated.

New Defender XT Cab

New Defender XT Cab with Kolpin plow was delivered last Friday. New shop plow vehicle. Other than a few issues with install of parts from the dealer, everything seems to be fine. Ordered up mirrors, and working on a tool kit/box to have in the bed.

Planned mods/upgrades: stereo, odyssey batter, street legal kit, side mirrors, rear view mirror, custom bed organizer

Planning on putting it through the paces for deer opener.

Sorry for the sideways image. Uploaded like that.

Price paid and winch?

Just picked up a new 2018 570 base for $6100 OTD, seemed to be the best price I could get over the phone in Florida but wondering how I did compared to others.

Also, I haven't had a chance to check but does the base model come with the winch wires pre wired?

Thanks!
