  1. Pro fit squeeze clamps if ur wanting to put 50 inch light bar on the windsheild with no drilling
  2. The front end growl when turning is supposedly an issue can am is aware of ... my cousins 2018 hd 10 had that growl when turning from the front end dealer took it in and checked it his problem was the tolerances in the diff were to tight and were grinding there selves away ... it was warranty replaced and now the new diff is growling just the same ... can am told our dealer in the beginning of the year they were supposed to have a differential fix for this possibly a warranty replaceable/ recall for a new redesigned front diff and they had july as a release date but then corona happened and that hurt everything including the diff fix .... our dealer is talking with them again right now to hopefully get complete answers on what there goin to do with this update since his warranty is up but every thing is back dated and documented ... so it's a waiting game still and hopefully have some good news soon
  3. #1 - No caps on the base model they come from factory exposed #2 - u can add it and the lower dash comes in handy but for as little as its actually used I wouldnt install it cause it's way easier to install accessories and there wiring with out the lower dash in .... get the removable glove box for the passenger side dash ull use that alot ... #3 - there is no cover lid for the base model driver cubby that I know of ... but after driving my cousins xt with the covered lid ... i actually enjoy mine being an open cubby for quick grabbing what ever u throw in there ... plus with a windshield that lid on the xt just dosent seem to open up as much as some one would like
  4. The blue looks awesome definitely one of the best colors they have had for the defenders to date ... I'm also in Missouri... central Missouri
  5. 4500 miles with every thing u can throw at a windshield... and my super atv hard coated poly carbonate windshield is still 99% the same great shape as new the only scratch it has is my fault because of the windshield wipers I installed had a sharp lil rock in a clump of mud i wiped off and it got me for a small hardly noticable scratch ... it was $325 when I bought it a year and a half ago ... my cousin bought glass tilt out for his defender and it cracked just like every car windshield I've ever owned ... the thought of having to buy another glass windshield after dropping $1250 is crazy ... it would take an army tank to fuck up hard coated polycarbonate for any abuse we put these bikes threw ... my other cousins glass windshield also shattered (from his head but that's another story) ... only thing I would change is more air flow but the updated there windshields and they do have more air flow ..... the flip up would be nice from them ... but I wanted a light bar up top and wanted it below roof height for clearance on tight woods trailers here in Missouri and the flip out makes it to were u have to put the bar on the roof
  6. Yes the 6x6 is a 2020 3 seater with an extra frame box bolted to the existing frame (original hitch is even still located in between to two frames) ..... any 2 door defender 2020 doors will fit and most likely 2016-2019 will fit as well but dont quote me exactly with the later years... but 2020 doors will bolt right on 👌
  7. I think the easiest way for us to do this is adding an extended bracket in the floor where the buckle post bolts to the floor ... I think I've seen them on ebay ext... if I find it I'll post it... but wouldnt take much to build small bracket paint and bolt in
  8. Yes I ran the wires threw the floor board under the panels... plus wire loomed them in ... the radiator lines run in there also there is a lil room between the two but the wire loom is just a lil extra precaution against the wires being down in the hot box
  9. Completely new exhaust system ...and I belive different heads that's where the 10 hp comes from and a slight change in tune
  10. Mine smoked from the oils on the motor which appeared to look like smoke when new but it did puff one ot 2 small smoke clouds on the first day I had it ... I'm talkin first 0.8 miles when I gave it a decent stab... it's a brand new motor just settling its self in now it has 3033 miles and hasn't dont that once since the first day I drove it
  11. If you want a loud... vibrate you to death at idle ride with not enough power for around ur ranch ... buy the yamaha viking ... If u want a quite smooth excellent ride with all the power u could need stick with ur thoughts on the hd10 ... u can't go wrong ... I have an hd10 max and it still impresses me every day and it has 2500 miles with not a problem ... one of my buddies has a viking 6 and beats his self up everytime he rides with us with the anticipation of trading his in next year on a defender
  12. If ur not lookin to stay in a stick budget ... I would suggest the 1000cc ... it's the only option of the 3 engine sizes that can never leave u saying or thinking "I wish I woulda bought the bigger motor" ... ha ha just saying I couldn't be happier with my hd10 ... and also u could look at it like this the 500, 800, and 1000 can all go the same places and do the same work generally speaking but the 500 and 800 are gonna be working way harder the do the same thing ... old saying goes "no replacement for displacement "
  13. 50 or 52 inch will span the entire width of windshield if thats the answer ur lookin for
  14. I second Dan's statement pics please .... cause in thinkin about a battle armor 2 inch lift possibly small spacers to track back out to stock or just over and 28s cause I dont want to get into clutching or at least not yet lol
  15. I do have to say that quite a bit of my 2200 miles on mine is gravel road riding and pavement and the big horns still look great it's crazy how well there holding up but the fronts are finally getting some waves in them and they do vibrate the bike at slower speeds on asphalt
