I just did a week at the Hatfield McCoy trails in WV. We stayed at Rockhouse Trail system and also rode over to Devil Anse and Buffalo Creek areas.

We had three very different machines and the zforce trail 800 did awesome in the trails. We had a 2018 Can Am 1000 Turbo, 2022 Teryx4 800 and the 2021 zforce 800.

We did about 500 miles and had a great time. They call it ROCKhouse trails for a reason. The Zforce did great and went everywhere with no issues.

ZForce 800 EX, 53 & Trail / Wheels and tires question
February 05, 2022, 08:30:47 PM
Can anyone confirm that the wheels from a 2021 zforce 950 will fit a 2021 zforce 800 trail?  They look to be 14 inch wheels with 27!inch stag 6plys and an upgrade from my 800 trail stockers.

ZForce 800 EX, 53 & Trail / Tie rod adjustments
August 18, 2021, 06:54:06 PM
My kid clipped a log and the front right was slightly off and steering wheel was a little off center. I adjusted the tie rod end and the wheel looks straight and the steering wheel returned to center.

I only adjusted the outer tie rod. I didn't remove the boot on the inner. Is there any adjustment there?  I had to go out about a half inch and want to make sure I still have enough of the tie rod end in the rod.

We are doing some light trail riding.  After about 10-15 mins The fan comes on as normal when it hits 4 bars on the temp gauge and the gauge goes up two more and stays there. Fan continues to run, but it doesn't cool down. Always up where only two bars left at the top of the gauge. That seems too hot to me.   Is that normal?

I've got about 140 miles on this thing now.  Put the uni filter on and did first oil change at 100 miles.

I have been doing research and planning on snorkeling the air intake directly between the seats and the CVT intake behind the drivers seat. Today I took off the center cover to install harnesses and see another intake attached to CVT. That one is way lower than the others and huge. Does that also need to be snorkeled?  I don't see any mentions of that area anywhere.

Just picked up a 2021 zforce 800 trail. Did about 100 miles this last week and pretty happy with it so far. Drivers seatbelt failed about 50 miles in and I had to change the fan blower fuse at 75 miles. We probably didn't treat it as nice as you should a new machine. My wife had it sunk in a mid puddle in the first two hours. Lol. We rode it hard for the first 100 and so far so good. I expected a couple small things to go wrong and I'm pretty handy.
A few things I'll be looking up here to get started on making this machine better.... If there is something any new owner should be doing by default, let me know.

1. Air box mods or snorkel. Wonder if it voids the 3 year warranty I upgraded to?

2. ditching the seatbelts for harnesses

3. Adding a light bar. (Already bought one)

4. Wheel spacers?  It doesn't feel tippy at all like I thought it would, but might add 1.5's anyway.

5. Windshield!!!

6. Taking off the doors and putting the nets on for now. Might look for full doors for winter.

7. Is there anything to make the steering more responsive?  Seems like a lot of turning off the wheel to actually turn. That power steering sure is sweet though!
