Well I am really starting to regret this purchase.
350 miles / 500 kms and so far:

- 2 coolant leaks
- issues in starting that resolved itself once at the dealership
- starter sometimes drags
- super super touchy throttle because of the clutch spring and weight factory setup
- intermittent winch issue, sometimes the 'In' doesn't work
- dead cells in my Rear taillights both on the red and orange rears.

And of course happening after it has come off warranty.

They have had some ECU mapping issues. I would check with your dealer on any recalls or solutions. Sometimes its a replacement ECU. Other times there are problems with the TPS. That too is replaceable.
I have a 21 and a 22 800xc. (purchased the same time but one came in as a 21), anyway the 22 I had this issue with. It jerked so hard once in reverse I almost went over the bars. Getting close to anything was a nightmare, would just putr in N and push it. They replaced the ECU which made it better but I always hold the rear brake heavy as I throttle up on both these now, (rev and release) every once in a whileit will jack rabbit on me.  (both machines)
That's just plain dangerous. Whatever it takes, that needs fixed.

They put it through its paces and found nothing wrong with it????

I did some research and there are clutch kits that fix the issue. Going to look into it after I get all my other issues on a bike that has less than 500kms or 350 miles looked after.

I have a 2019 and although the throttle is touchy, I wouldn't say that I peel out every time.  I have learned how to take off more smoothly going forward. Reverse is still a little more difficult.  I haven't ridden it in a while, so I'm guessing I'll have to relearn to take off smoothly.

Sometimes I can feather the throttle and take off in F or R however more times it reacts differently each time the throttle is engaged.

General Discussion / Touchy Throttle CForce 800 XC 2022
January 04, 2023, 12:04:59 AM
Hey folks, I own a 2022 CForce 800XC, absolutely love the quad however the throttle mapping is so sensitive. It seems like it's all or nothing sometimes. I'm continuously "peeling out" unintentionally, lol. This is in both forward L or H as well as Reverse.

Anyone else have the same experience?
