TRX90 CDI module issue

I bought a used TRX90 that didn’t start — there was an irregular, weak spark, so I ordered a new CDI module from DB Electrical
(Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0081S9DXI/…x90+cdi+module

When I installed the new module, there was no spark whatsoever. I replaced it and ordered the same CDI module from DB electrical and it similarly had no spark. I then gave up on DB electrical and ordered one from Quadboss

(Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Quadboss-Racin…ilpage_o01_s00)

When I tested it, I had a very nice robust repeatable spark. I closed the thing up, and the honda fired right up and I took it for a spin around the block. However, after 10 minutes I shut it down and it wouldn’t restart. Pulled the spark plug and, again, it had no spark!!!
SO what next? Is the problem here with ordering aftermarket CDI modules (although 3 of them being bad seems like an extraordinary coincidence). Or, is something else in my honda frying these modules almost immediately?

6″ Lift Opinions?

I have a 15′ Outlander XMR 800 and thinking about installing a 6" lift. I’m considering CATVOS, S3, and SATV. Anyone out there tried these lift kits? What’s your opinions please? Also are there any other 6" kits that I should consider?

88 Fourtrax electric start not working

New member here. I’ve been on the site plenty of times researching and it’s great. I have an 88 fourtrax 300 2wd. Hasn’t been run for years. Sort of a barn find. Anyway I have replaced all the fluids, filters and a brand new battery. When the key is turned on I get the oil and neutral light but nothing when I push the electric start. The headlights will not work either. It won’t fire when kicked also so might be an issue with the kill switch. Not sure where to start from there. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

2011 550 Tire consideration

I’ve been looking to upgrade tire sizes on my 2011 Grizzly 550. Currently I am running 26x10x12 ITP Mud lites in front and 26x12x12 mud lites in back on STI HD rims. All my crew is now running 27 and up, leaving me with the smallest tire.

My 550 has never had an issue with turning these tires in mud but I did recently upgrade my clutch. Now it really spins them.

Looking to go up to a 28 inch tire but do not wanna sacrifice power. Any thoughts? Will I have clearance stock? Will it turn them? What tire so you recommend?
