406offroad

In May 2019, my wife and I went on a two week land and sea cruise trip to Alaska. One of the excursions was an ATV tour outside of Denali national Park. I knew then that atvs were in our future. I bought our first ATVs about 9 months after that trip.

Heated grips. Here in Montana it is cool up in the mountain forests where we like to ride.

I would choose power steering may not be the mod you are refering to, but if i ever get another one that would be a must have for me. I also may try an automatic i have always had manual shift.

I use onX off-road for riding trails. It is gps and I don't need cell service. It also show public land and private land owners.

2022 Toyota Tundra with a 6' x 12' trailer for 2 atv's. Perfect setup.

Public lands, forest service trails and roads.

I had an ATV that was scratched and faded so I sanded and refinished with a colored spray-on bedliner from TPC Global. It looked great and was very durable.

I had an ATV that had a lot of scratches, so I refinished it with a spay-on colored bedliner. The color matched the plastic perfectly and it's extremely durable.

I used Raptor 2K bed liner aerosol by Upol,

The plastic on one of my ATVs was scratched and unsightly. I lightly sanded it and then refinished it with a colored spray-on bed liner material. It looks great and is very durable, especially when riding off-road 

I bought a used CForce 500 for my wife a couple years ago. The previous owner neglected some maintenance items but once those were addressed it was a good machine. Last fall we decided to upgrade and bought two new CFMoto CForce 600. They are not the quality of a Yamaha, but the features you get for the price make them a good recreational atv. We are very happy with CFMOTO.

I use android, some of the apps I have I use are "Open GPS tracker" (free) "Journey tracker" (free)

Openstreets Android "OsmAnd" (pay) but there is a free version, "US Topo Maps" (pay)

Yes, I use the ONXoffroad app for riding trails, as well as forest service maps. I have the subscription that shows public lands and private land and landowners.

I have a 2014 CForce 500 and the pull start is not cooperating. It seems as if it is not releasing the compression thus allowing me to spin the engine with the pull start. Any ideas?

Yep, that would be it. Thanks.

I have a 2014 CForce 500. The front differential will not engage when the 4WD button is activated. You can hear the relay click when the button is pressed but the 4x4 doesn't engage.

In order to get to the actuator it appears that the front differential has to be partially removed to access the bottom bolt on the actuator. Before I start disassembly, does anyone know of a source for the replacement parts?

The special tool turned out to be a lawnmower spark plug wrench. The spark plug has a smaller diameter and went in with a 5/8" socket, no problem.

So, I have a CFMOTO C-Force 500 and I am wanting to change the spark plug. The service manual states that a special tool is needed but no part number is provided. What has everyone else used to change the spark plug?

I keep hearing about a magic button under the seat but I can't find where it is. Maybe someone has a pic of it? I will look for a small hole on the back of the dash panel.

I called cfmoto usa and they weren't sure how to change the display settings, said that no one in that office knew about a machine as old as mine (2014).

Well, my dash doesn't have any buttons....

Thanks, I appreciate the help.

I have a 2014 CForce 500 with the digital dash. The dash display is in kilometers and I cannot figure how to change to mph. Hopefully someone knows how to make the change.
