I had an 08 grizzly 700 that i bought new and put 5000 kms on. It was completely trouble free for me. I sold it last year to my friend and he put on another 1000kms without issue. Last year i bought a new outlander 1000r and so far i have 1500kms. I had a rear cv boot clamp come undone and...

I will try to make a long story short. Have an 08 xp x package that needs a top end that we are trying to decide on parting out or fixing for a backup sled. I see lots of parts for sale to give me an idea what they might be worth but there are a few things that I rarely see for sale that are...

I remember back in the day someone moved the front arm on the rear suspension on my 98 msrx while still keeping the 136. Can anyone remember how far back to move it? Were there any other mods that had to be done to accommodate this and what the benefits are of doing it. Thanks to anyone whose...

I have had quads for 20 years and love them but now I have two young kids. I don't mind taking one of them on my quad but not both. My wife says I can do whatever I want.....as long as I have both kids with me. So this past December I bought a commander xtp and rear seats with roll bars for it...

I actually hope the new polaris climbs higher than my XM and runs like champ. That way it forces BRP to step up to the plate and build something even better, then in a few years when my 4 yr warranty runs out I can buy a better lighter more powerful product from BRP. We all win in the end from...

We used to shim the early xp to theses specs, Z= 21 mm, X =41 +\- 1mm, Y=X + 1.5mm +\- .5. I think the 2012 and newer came like that from the factory.

Hey Art, I think dr Van Nostrand is looking for you

I am pretty sure I have about 18 grams with the 412 ramps with my RB kit. My memory is sketchy sometimes but i wrote it down....somewhere in the shop, but where I don't remember. Kids that never sleep have made my memory like Swiss cheese. I rode mcbride at about 6000 ft on clicker 4, and used 5...

If I recall correctly I think the rule of thumb is 1gram equals 200 rpm, and I think each clicker number is 150 to 200 rpm. I have the same sled with the same kit, I tried the taller gearing and did not like it much and went back to stock also. I was in contact with RB late last year and he...

I was trying real hard to make myself feel better about looking at green grass in my yard. It didn't work.

Sorry forgot to attach image.

At least according to the graph we are on track with our snow, but I still feel kinda ripped off by the recent warm temps and rain. The real time data page has temps and snow depth. Just out of curiosity does anyone know exactly where this weather station is located?

With almost 2000 km I would look elsewhere. It seems like a left over 14 would be a good deal. I would call other dealers in BC and Alberta, but keep in mind to ask for the out the door price as I gave found some dealers will charge for different things, for example 300$ paperwork fees. If you...

It might be worth checking the secondary for broken rollers. They broke on my 08 xp and I put in high torque rollers. It may not be the culprit but just one more thing to quickly check off the list.

It can be a very hard decision to make. It is not uncommon for a spouse to feel guilt about finding a care home or facility for a loved one. I worked in an extended care facility for ten years and caring for someone with dementia can be an unimaginable amount of work. He must be very physically...
