UForce 800 / hard or no steering/ found problem
May 10, 2023, 10:18:38 PM
So, I did find the problem with the steering column bearings, but while I was replacing the bearings, I found the rack and pinion is shoot
the tie rod shafts seem to have bad bearings at the ends and on the input shaft seems to be loose as well, it doesn't seem to be rebuildable according to the parts diagram. but is it just the tie rods that have worn and causing the loosens in the rack?
And is there a aftermarket kit to rebuild the rack or some type of an up grade?

UForce 800 / hard or no steering
February 18, 2023, 08:37:09 PM
I have a 2015 u-force 800 that I have had since new, it has started to have a hard spot or no steering, it seems as if it binds, but it only dose it once and awhile.
today it did it when I first started it and then again about 5 minutes later. It will do it even if the rig is jacked up and the wheels hanging.
I can't tell if it's binding in the joints, in the steering shaft, or just the EPS.
hopefully someone has had this issue before

UForce 800 / Recalled oil lines?
April 12, 2021, 07:25:58 PM
I have a 15 u force. I have had issues for years with the oil cooler lines and have decided to replace them when I saw the recall kit for $78
I don't have a dealer in Alaska where I live anymore so I do all my own work.
So because of this would CF moto send me the parts for free?? and what parts are they changing in the recall kit??

CForce 600 , X6 / clutch replacement
January 13, 2021, 09:06:25 PM
so gentlemen,
I am replacing the clutch and bearings on our x6, my problem is on the side cover there is a bearing and seal in the cvt cover that is between the wet clutch and the dry clutch.
I pulled the bearing out not paying attention and when I went to put it back I discovered that the bearing is open on 1 side and closed on the other side, I don't know how it came out, I think the closed side should go out towards the dry clutch but I want to find out for sure. 
please help

CForce 600 , X6 / c6 drive belt measurements
January 07, 2020, 07:53:06 PM
good evening,
we have a C6 wheeler, it stopped moving in any direction, i removed and inspected the clutches and can't find any thing wrong there.
the belt is moving fine but the only thing i can think of is the belt is out of spec and not letting it move.
i also need a link to the Manuel i can't down load the manual
thanks Mike

UForce 800 / 2015 u force that wont start
December 03, 2019, 04:43:22 PM
I have a 2015 u force that will crank but not start. i am a mechanic and have checked fuses and etc.
i know for sure the ecu is not running the fuel pump, and it doesn't seem to be firing either.
i know something is triggering the ecu to run but i can't find a cam or crank sensor on the unit or in the parts diagram.
it was fine, i was plowing snow, i went in to warm up came back out and it wont run.
any help would be great
the dealer up here in alaska closed and we have no service or anyone who wants to look at the cfmoto

I have own a cf side by side 800 for over a year now and it has handled anything I have thrown at it.
only wish i could raise it up off the ground more, but they only have 2 inch lifts right now
