Perfex 2″ lift. Junk?

I’ve got a 2014 Outlander XT 800R. 1" wheel spacers, 26" Bighorns. Just bought a perfex 2" lift kit. Did the back ok, I little disappointed with instructions and hardware. Especially with the bushings. The inside diameter is way to big and make the bushing very sloppy on the bolt. However, now I’m installing the front, so far I’ve had to cut a couple bushing because of the lenth, that’s not the big deal, the problem is the brackets that bolt to the bike and then the shock bolts to those. One side was ok, the other don’t fit, the bolt that would hold the shock on hits the frame.

Has anyone had any luck with this kit? I can’t even find a website for them to call or email.

Thanks in advance.

1999 TRX300 fourtrax electrical problem-no lights and won’t start

This is my first time posting here and I’m a bit of a newbie…any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here’s the problem. It was running fine…I turned it off. Went to start it a couple hours later, turned the key and nothing. The green neutral light and red oil pressure light didn’t even come on. No headlights or anything. Obviously it won’t start. But I can kick start it and it runs fine and the lights come on and the headlights work and everything. Can anyone please tell me what I should look at first and help me troubleshoot this problem?
Thanks

intake valves

Hello all

i have a few questions about my intake valves.

i found out one of mine is bent.

so im going to replace it…

i took it out and used calipers on it.

it is a 37mm valve.

is this a stock valve?

should i replace both of the intake?

should i replace the other ones too..

when i replace the valves do i have to buy new shims to do the valve adjustment?
