I recently bought a 1984 big red 200es. I plan on restoring it to look like it did off the line. I’ve looked all over the web for a good place to buy repop plastics and I can’t find anything. Its especially hard to find the front fender. If you have any good websites or know where to find them please let me know. -Thank you

Hello, I’m a new user and hoping someone can help out.

Problem:

I have an early 2000’s Trail Blazer 250 (not positive what year, it’s my dad’s not mine) that won’t start. Pull rope is broken, starter soelinoid clicks when you try to start it. It does read 12V on the starter side of the solenoid, so I believe I’m good to assume that’s ok? I tapped the starter with a hammer and got it to make some noise, but it’s not a noise I’ve heard before from a polaris. Sounds like the starter is spinning but not engaging? I took the clutch cover off and see the belt and clutch start spinning, although it’s very slow (I would think far too slow to start it) and then after a few seconds it sounds again like the starter is spinning but not engaging anything.

So I know I’ll need a new starter, because tapping it does get it to do something. My question is, is that going to fix all of my problems or is there some kind of clutch problem as well? I’m fixing this for my dad, he thinks it’s still rotting away in a barn. I’m willing to put a new starter on it, but if it needs a clutch or something expensive, it’s probably going to have to rot.

Background: 4 years ago 4 or 5 quads were stolen from my dad’s property. This is the only one that was left behind, but the wiring was all cut up like someone was trying to hot wire it. I think I’ve got all the wires connected back up, but they cut the pull rope off and I’ll need the starter problem fixed to verify that everything else is working. I mention this in case any of you know of a wiring type reason why this starter would be spinning the clutch so slowly or not engaging. Thanks for any help you can provide. I really thought I’d just throw a battery in this thing, splice some wires and drain the old fuel to have a great running little machine.

Does anyone know have or know where I can get a dxf or dwg file of the Yamaha symbol for my rad relocation project. Thanks!

I am looking for a rear fender for a 2000 Scrambler 500 without any cracks or repairs. Thanks.

I’m just looking for some reviews from the guys who went with an after market primary on their 650’s if it was worth the money?

I recently bought a 98 scrambler 400 and decided to change all the fluids. When I changed the tranny, gas came flooding out. I filled it with tranny oil and drove it again and checked it, still to find more gas in it. I recently rebuilt the carb and put the lines to where the other owner set them. I was hoping you guys could send me a diagram of the carb that shows me where the lines are supposed to go. I think the gas is getting into the transmission through the vac line from the bottom of the carb. Any input would help.
-Thank you

Hello, all. Found this forum while looking for answers to my 2003 Sportsman 500 H.O.’s charging problem, looks like a fun place to learn lots. Use mine to plow snow when necessary, haven’t had it on a trail, yet. Just looking for reliability-that’s what SHE said! lol :wave:
