  1. I have another solution that a friend showed me. Check you bearings. When you are not moving the brakes work fine. Then as you ride the loose bearing allows the wheel to wobble and push the caliper apart. So the end result is that you have to pump the brakes a few times to get the pads back against the rotor.

    I fixed the bearing on the wife's quad and now she has brakes again!

  2. The ride very well and are comfortable. I am suprised that can am switched from trailing arm to IRS in the rear when designing the Mavrick.

    My only complaint on the 800 is how the clutch and belt enguage.

    Make sure you read up on the 1000s. There are clutching, heat, and a few other minor issues. If you want the extra power there are fixes for all of the issues if you are willing to spend some more money.

  3. A knock in the fuel pump is normal. Mine really sounds loud with the seat off.

    I would download the manual and see if there are readings you can take on the sensor.

    Does the H for high come up on the pod? or does it display and E?

    Maybe you can pull the belt cover and make sure there is nothing in there like water or belt dust then check the deflection on the belt. It would be alot easier to check that stuff first before getting into the motor and trans.

    Lastly I hope you used wet clutch safe oil. I am sure you did but just covering all the angles.

  4. Remove the rear rack - 4 Main Bolts

    Remove the bolts that hold the foor rest on.

    Remove the battery cover

    Remove the battery (negative cable first)

    Disconnect the tail light and take off the gas cap.

    The plastics should come off. Check where the wiring harness leaves the fuse block and wraps around the frame.

    For the front remove the cover for the radiator and the cover where the steering stem is. You should be able to see almost everything from there.

    Let me know if you find any bad wires.
