Does anyone know of any problems with the Polaris Front Fender Bag? I know you have to drill 2 holes to install, but I wonder how well they hold up after years of wear and tear.
Thanks

Newbie question. Smoked the original belt this weekend. I do belive it was rider error. I went thur lots of thick mud and water about 1 mile later the belt started to slip and squeal. I stoped lots of steam coming from the snorkel on the right side. Bike won’t move. It runs but will only move forward. I checked the cvt drain there’s gear oil in it, maybe 3oz came out and some water. I’m sure the belt is toast but why would there be gear oil in the drain?? Any info would be helpful..

Purchased an 07 Sportsman 450 and the Reverse Override button does not respond when pushed to toggle mode or override engine rpms when backing. Headlight switch and kill still work just not the yellow button….does a guy buy a new switch for $100 or is there possibly something simple here?? Any ideas or experiences helpful, thanks in advance.

It seems the cable is stuck. I pulled out the split cable half to the carb and it is OK but the other half of the cable going to the oil pump seems stuck. There is a place where it has been rubbing and heat has got to it from the engine. Is this an easy repair to get the end out of the oil pump end? Thanks,Gary

Hey there,

it is probably a stupid question, but anyway: Where is the fuel pump located on a Sportsman 500 (2006)?

Thanks

I have a bad thumb and thinking a twist grip may help. I already put thumb throttle extension on. Helps except hard right turns and long rides. Anyone have twist grip?
