I have a 2008 Cub Cadet sxs..love it. It's basic,has a hydraulic dump box,(which is really useful),I use it for breaking trails on my property,hauling firewood,and use it all year round. We have quite a bit of snow up here  in Northern Ontario,and have ONLY had it stuck once,when there was no where to hook the winch to.I do wish it had a little more ground clearance,and taller tires,for the mudholes,but honestly?..for being the FIRST atv that I have ever owned..(I bought it used with 240 hrs on it)..it has been everything I hoped for.The throttle is a little twitchy,but once you get used to it,the damn thing is a tank,and will crawl through almost anything.Would I buy another??...absolutely!..It's NOT the fastest thing out there,topping out about 30kph,..But when other atvs get STUCK!..I am the go to guy,to pull them out..bulletproof so far,and other than replacing a front wheel hub,(it was cracked from the previous owners farm use) problem free.If you want SPEED.the Cub isn't for you...but if you want tough!..reliable,and trustworthy..it's a really good bet. The Kohler 31hp gas engine seems bulletproof so far..I hope this helps your decision..any more questions,just post,I will try and give the lowdown on my ownership so far

Yes I have the same unit with the 20 hp Cat. Diesel engine.  it's been good . I use it in the fall for hunting and winter for snow removal.   you want a local person to service it.  as the dealer is quite expensive.

It's hauled everything. !   it's built a little heavier than your average UTV.

      Is the cam sprocket a bolt removal or is it pressed on? Dang bolt is on tight. Impact wrench won't even move it.

      Hi All,
      New here, but bought a 2022 Sector 750 brand new last march (old stock up here in Canada)
      It's a good bike so far, but I have noticed a quirk and was wondering if anyone else has had a similar issue?
       
      The issue I've had is if I leave the utv parked on any incline, not even a major incline, and leave it to sit for a while (day or two) it will not start properly. It will turn over and not fire until I press the gas pedal, when it will run and rev up, but if I let off the gas it will die. It will keep doing this until I either start it in gear and drive it for a bit or leave it in neutral and roll it down the hill to flatter ground. where it will have to sit for a while. 
      If I park it on a decline there is no issue. fuel is not low, it's occurred a couple times now. 
       
      Any thoughts on the cause of this? Dealership just says bring it in and let them take a look, at my expense of course.

      Hello, All!  I've decided to replace the traction batteries in my 2018 Sector E1 with a 48V Lithium set. They may be expensive, but I figure the Discovery Dry Cell are, too. I am not looking for the max driving range, as I have never received near the brochured range to begin with, but a good mix of charge/ get work done/ charge is what I am expecting.
      I have settled on the 48V EAGL kit from bigbattery dot com. Each battery pack provides 30Ah. The kit ships with a charger, as well. The packs would be physically connected in parallel (using a busbar) to one another, maintaining the 48V voltage, but together would be able to provide the amp draw the buggy pulls when going up hill or towing a rake (rated 320 max continuous Amps). This is in comparison to the serial connection the eight 6V lead batteries. Each of the EAGL batteries looks to have its own BMS; am I correct in thinking I will have to use their included charger rather than (simply) changing the onboard charger to lithium mode? The chemistry of the pack is LiFe PO4, for what it's worth.  I haven't torn anything apart yet (to diagram), so  I am not sure how the dash will interpret the AMP draw, but the kit I am looking at includes a dash mounted charge indicator.
      If anyone has completed a similar conversion, do you have any tips? Specifically, how did you remove the original batteries, and how did you secure the new ones? I am guessing that almost any change from the stock batteries would involve at least some modifications. Any tips would be appreciated, especially things I may have failed to consider. Thanks!

      Just bought a 2014 Volunteer. Can anyone tell me what parts have to come off to change the oil and filter. I can see them but I can't figure out how to access them. Thank You

      I own a K9 with 50hrs that has been in for repair more than once the farm.  Multitude of issues, trying to file lemon on it but interested in knowing if owners are organizing for a class action suit.  The dealer informs me there are “a lot of owners very unhappy with these”.
      Thanks
