Just got back to Pittsburgh from a 4 day ride at H&M.
Wednesday we (5) of us decided to tackle the Buffalo Mountain – Decils Anse – Rock Run ride.
We got off to a later start than anticipated, 10:30am. We stopped along the way on a number of occasions just to take it all in and appreciate the scenery. We finally reached Keith’s Bar and Grill around 4:30pm. So the ride (one way – 72 miles) was half done and now had to head back. Knowing we had nightfall upon us we hit the trails hard and fast on the way back. The last 1.5hrs were in complete dark. Without headlights you couldn’t see your hand a foot in front of your face! We landed on our doorstep around 8pm and 130 miles later. It would have been closer to 140, but the last 3 miles were made by road as we were all pretty whooped.
Great ride with no injuries and or mechanical issues!
The following day we hit the buffalo mountain double black diamond trails. The hill coming back up were pretty narly! Probably 3-400′ of solid rock 1:1 hills that claimed, not one, but two of my buddies GBC Grim Reapers that are 8 plys. I use the same tires and had zero issues but my approach was a bit different than his. I decided on low gear and creaped while he chose high and was a bit faster. I think the "slow and steady…" Approach won this time.
I recently purchased a 99 Sportsman 335 that had been sitting for a while. I just rebuilt the carb, replaced the buttons in the secondary (driven) clutch, changed the belt and other maintenance items.
My problem now is that on decel the belt grabs pretty hard and rapidly slows it down and throws you forward. I don’t know if I just didn’t clock the secondary correctly (first time I"ve ever messed with one) or if I need to look at the Primary. The belt also slips some but it’s a lot better now than it was before I replaced the buttons. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
P.s I did lightly clean the sheaves with soap and water with a textured pad. I also twisted the sheave in the direction that would tighten the coil of the spring up. Hope that was correct. Thanks again
Just bought a 2011 Polaris Sportsman 850 XP a few nights ago. As soon as I got it home trying to back it off the truck it acted like it had a dead battery (clicking) but after turning it over a few times it fired right up. (after I took my hand off the break). Parked it. Next day it started to do the same thing. After it fired up it had a check eng light came on and would only crank when it wanted to. Thinking the batt was dead I hooked a small jump box to it. The four wheeler fired right up. still having the check Eng light on. the code is 634 7 saying something up with the ECU. Would run but didn’t want to run it far because it seemed like it was getting pretty warm. Every time I would cut it off it would go back to the clicking acting like it had a dead bat once again. I took the bat out today and charged it. (ALSO MY GAUGES HAD Lo DIRECTLY IN THE CENTER, and no that was not showing me what gear I was in.)
WHAT COULD THE PROBLEM BE? Would just a low batt cause it to throw a check eng light and code because it the ecu wasen’t getting enough power. I only drove it less that 5min so the bat wouldn’t have had enough time to charge up and give the ecu power to work? Or am I thinking to positive and my ecu fried? Anyone have any of these problem..
ALSO: When I would try and turn the key over I could feel something happening in the ecu box and also the fuses. when I would put my finger on them..
Two codes: first IDLE AIR CONTROL 1 634 7 POSITIVE OUT OF RANGE & VOLTAGE TOO LOW 0 168 4

Well here we go. So my 04.5 Sportsman has developed a knock in the rear end (right side i think) that is only there when i’m backing up, and its only there sometimes. I tried putting the back end of the bike in the are and giving it gas in reverse and no knock! its strange, anyway just wondering thoughts on what i might have to spend money on now. any help would be much appreciated. thanks!
