Rear Rack Options

Been looking for a sporty rear rack for my 2013 1000. I’ve been looking at the 715001360 OEM accessory rack but everywhere it’s $195.00. Not really wanting to pay that much for something so simple. Has anyone made anything like an off-the-shelf 6-pack rack on an adapter plate? Or is there any cheaper option for the OEM part?

New to me 2005 TRX250EX

I just literally picked up a 2005 TRX250EX this morning. The bike will be for my son once I get it running. It was garage kept and in great shape. No cracks in the plastic, no tears in the seat, and original stickers still on.
It hasn’t run in awhile. I need to get a new battery in it first to see what else I need to do to get it running. You could tell it has never sat outside and has never been abused. Should be easy to get her going. It was a great price so I took it even thought I couldn’t start it. The family was moving and just needed it gone in the next couple of days.

Having battery issues with my ’13 sportsman 500

So my last two rides I’ve had some issues with my battery. It is the original battery I think so may be due for a new one but I still think it’s good. The four wheeler runs great and has no issues until late in the ride and after the battery gets mud slung all over it and then I’ll have to get it jumped off every now and then. I think that’s what is causing the issues cause once I get it home and hose it off it runs fine. Is there any kind of covering I can buy for the battery to help keep the mud off it? Kind of a dumb location for it right on top of the back left wheel under the fender.

Help fried ECU?

I recently purchased a 2011 renegade 800 for parts or fix up. When I turn the key on it displays a bunch of backwards R’s with a check engine light. After a minute or so it says "New Ecu recognized cluster will now reset." After resetting its blank and lit up with no letters. It says something about a security token lacking in my video it won’t let me upload it. It has no starter solenoid so I can’t start it. Will these things start without a cluster, or a cluster that isn’t working correctly? What would you buy cluster or ecu/key, or try something else? Thanks for help in advance.
