Put the battery on a charger just now. I tried to start again and all the lights flash and I'm hearing some clicks.

I'll take the battery to a auto parts store this week and try it. If not then I got a dealer near me. I know some stuff mechanically but probably just enough to get me introuble lol.

So the 600 has been sitting for a few months and went to start it up and all it does is flicker the lights when it tries to start. I put it on a battery tender and it shows that battery is good. Maybe the starter? Any suggestions on how to check that or should I take it to a dealer?

CForce 600 , X6 / Cargo box?

Anyone use any aftermarket cargo boxes on their 600 touring? I just can't justify paying over 300$ for one.

Only issue is it does expose the battery

are there any covers to buy that would cover the battery while not using the back rest?

Not that I'm aware of.

CForce 600 , X6 / Re: Towing capacity

« on: February 17, 2021, 02:33:06 PM »

Normally it will depend on the power and weight of the towing vehicle. Without trailer brakes usually one doesn't want to exceed the weight of the towing vehicle..which in this case also includes the operator. It must also include the weight of the trailer itself so...how much does that 6x10 weigh? As for power...well..I guess if you start burning-up belts or has a problem moving or going up hills even in low range.. one could say it's overloaded a bit. Load on the engine also has to include the load on the tow vehicle which includes the operator, any gear and the weight on the toque. The difference between 800 and 1000 pounds is minimal and won't make much difference especially if the travel-zone is level. Be mindful of the toque weight as these are having issues with bending hitch and sometimes frame parts. Good luck. On a side note I've seen people pull insane things and get away with it. Safety first though.

It looks like the trailer is about 700 lbs. Moslty the area is flat. However there is a hill that I will have to go up to get the trailer where I need it. I think my 600T is about 900 lbs and I'm 175 lbs.

CForce 600 , X6 / Towing capacity

« on: February 16, 2021, 09:19:18 PM »

Ok I am getting some mixed numbers but here it is. I am looking to haul my 6x10 open trailer behind my atv. Some sources say 800 lbs and some say 1000 lbs.

Now I won't be hauling a ton of stuff just with some lumber and maybe some drywall. And not far away maybe 1/4 of a mile.

Any suggestions or experiences?

I just got my cfmoto about 2 weeks ago. I just filled up today and I was just over 1/4 tank and I had about 30 miles on it. However gas gauge seems to be a little temperamental at times. So might be more or less.

Congrats! You will love it!

Update:

Just installed the tusk locking heated grips. It took about an hour and a half. Everything is so tight under the hood but I was able to make it work. So far so good.

The accessory or USB plug should be keyed.

That's what I'm thinking just going to have to get down and dirty and undo the fenders to find the wires. The kit I ordered shoukd be here tomorrow.

Normally I would say use the acc plug but it's only a 10 amp. For 15 you will need to run to the battery but...you could use a relay triggered by that keyed acc circuit. That way its off when the key is. Simple install and most relays are good for 20 amps.

Would doing a fuse tap for the fuse for the screen work. Just do the fuse tap for 20 amps. Like I said it's tight under there and I for small hands lol.

Nope. You don't have 15 extra amps on that lighting system. You will toast it. In fact you can't get 15 extra amps from anywhere in the system. Now that little relay coil will only pull about .027ma so it's no issue. The load side will be straight off the battery.

So better go straight off the battery then with a relay? New to wiring stuff like this.

Let me see if I can explain this. You will come from the positive side of the battery to the line side of the relay. Then to the positive side of the grips from the load side of the relay. The coil positive post of the relay will be tied to the acc keyed power line. The ground side of the relay coil will go to the frame...or any ground as will the ground side of the grips. Simple. That's the only way you are going to tap 15 amps. Here's what that looks like.

That looks great thank you! Now I have to find a key powered wire now.

So I ordered some heated grips.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Tusk-Atv-Lock-On-Heated-Grips-Quad-Polaris-Honda-Kawasaki-Can-Am-Suzuki-/173909808268?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292

I was wondering. If there is a accessory wire under the hood? I found a few loose end wires don't seem to be for accessories. But non of them are key activited.

I was wondering if I could put in a add a 15 amp fuse tap to my screen fuse and run of off of there? Or should I go to the battery? I did try to run the wire to the plugs in the fender well for the usb and charger however it's too tight without taking everything apart.
