engine noise

i have a 2018 sportsman 450 ho, Ive had it for about a month now did first oil change at 5 hours but since ive had owned the 4 wheeler it has some motor noise like a tick but what ive saw on the forum from some other guys is that it is ok. should i be worried about it and take it to have looked at or is that how they are i just hate to take in and something else happens when they start looking at it. this is my first new machine and want to make sure everything is good on it.

Tire Questions

Well my wife caught a rock edge yesterday and ruined a back tire, so now looking at replacing tires and have a couple questions. First, what tire do you guys recommend for general trail riding with lots of rocky areas ?, puncture and side wall protection being very important, we do some snow riding, very little mud, lots of forest and high desert, and lots of rocks on some trails. Second, what is the purpose of having wider tires on the back of the quad ?, is it necessary ?, thanks in advance for your opinions.

2007 fuel gauge problem

I am just new to the site and to the ATV world itself so don't know much about it!

Just pickup a 2007 800 X2 fuel gauge didn't show up on display at all reached in tank with wire could get it to flash once in awhile.
Decided to remove the fuel pump and sending unit from the tank and clean the contacts, now the gauge shows on the display great but it just shows full when the tank is not full.
I have reached in the tank with a wire and moved it again thinking it might be caught on something but still reads full any ideas. I guess I will have to just buy a new sending unit unless some one has any good ideas.
I know everyone says just fill it up each time out but I am OCD I have to have every perfect and working if possible!
