I’m having the same issue with a 2017 550.  It’s in the shop now awaiting a new head gasket (that’s somewhere in neverland) according to shipping info.  Also a new water pump is to be installed.  Mechanics have repeatedly bled the system but after a few hours it overheats.   It has something to do with blow back.  Once it begins to overheat, the radiator and overfill jug is filled to the brim.   One mechanic opened the radiator cap and was drenched in the pressurized fluid!   The saga will continue if I ever see the head gasket.

I had the same problem. Shaved the head, new head gasket, new water pump. Nothing worked. I ended up just buying a new drop in motor. But as I thought about it, I never checked to see if the water pump was actually turning. I am guessing that the chain that drives the oil pump and water pump spun off. If I ever find the time I am going to disassemble the old motor and find out. 2018 750 challenger crew.

What drop-in motor did you use?  Have you been happy with it?

      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.

      Hey Guys, I have been chasing a stalling condition for about two weeks now. The bike will crank up and idle fine, then after about 20 seconds it will fall on its face and stall. It happens at both idle and while running at various rpms. You can turn the key off, turn it back on and it will fire right back up without trouble. I have verified spark on both cylinders with a spark tester. I have also added an inline fuel filter, and pulled the injectors to verify proper pulse on each. Things I have replaced - (relearn procedure performed after each component replaced): spark plugs, ECU, relay/fuse box, fuel pump, & throttle position sensor - all with no improvement of the condition. The only warning light I get when the condition occurs is the oil lamp. The bike only has 14 miles. I am at a loss and appreciate any help and suggestions! 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
