I’m doing a study on the side-by-side/UTV market and I’m interested in your opinions. It’s extremely quick and anonymous and I’d be happy to share the results with the community.
Also, as a small token of my appreciation I will be having a drawing among respondents for a $50 VISA giftcard for those interested. It’s not much but the most I can offer as a one person team.

Hey guys i just purchased a 2016 XMR 1000r. I am in need of a PCV, where is everyone buying theirs at. Is there much of a difference between the ones from normal vendors vs. the one that vforcejohn sells, other then about $105. I understand his is a custom map but according to dynojet theirs is as well. XMR will continue to have stock exhaust with no motor mods. Just need a much richer map. TIA

new to the board !! want to get a atv !! and instead of buying from the dealer i was thinking used !! just want to know how much they go for !! someone arounf my way has a 2011 renegade for 6000 !!
I believe my stator is bad. I have been looking at the side cover for it and it looks horrible to do. Can it be done with the motor in the machine? I see you have to disconnect both drive shafts too. How long should this repair take me?
Just wanted to let everyone know that I found a cheap replacement for the temperature sensor on my 2006 sportsman 500HO – Polaris part number 3089246. It had the correct connector and cycled the fan on/off properly.
New to the forum and was hoping someone more familar with these could help..
I have a customer who brought in his 04 bruin after he attempted to rebuild his carb on his own.. half the new parts went in, half he brought to me in a bag.. The quad had been sitting for about years prior to him doing all this. The issue is that it idles great but bogs out after 1/4 throttle. Carb looked new inside and out but I still removed and rebuild to be safe. (this included ultrasonic cleaning and compressed air for everything. All jets replaced with new. Re-installed, same issue. But it will rev up no problem when I cover the snorkel intake to the airbox.
It’s obviously starving for gas or way too lean with air. While I’m very comfortable with older and 2 stroke carbs, this one was different than others I’ve worked on with the vaccuum controlled slide etc.
Upon initial inspection, I noticed an extra jet Im not used to seeing, which I guess is a "starter jet". The diagram isn’t clear but what I found in there was a 127 jet. On the higher pedestal in which the slide needle goes into, I found a 57.5 jet. On any other carb I’ve worked on this is the main jet, so it looked to me liked the owner may have confused the 2 and put the smaller jet in the main so I swapped them and reinstalled. After doing this, it would not start or idle without a lot of throttle and would immediately die without throttle. (I did this without the airbox installed, but noticed it looks like the pulse line from the head pressurizes the carb through the airbox – another first for me). It was running pig-rich also, strong gas fumes, very wet plug after only a minute or so..
My next step is to try this orientation with the airbox in and sede if that makes a difference.
Other things I’ve tried – new gas (plenty of flow from petcock), new plug, inspected intake boot (looks new), sprayed starting fluid all around looking for air leaks.
The mixture screw is blocked off so I haven’t touched that. It’s worth noting that the machine looks brand new and was well maintained until sitting and was always stored inside.
Any other ideas?? I’ll update with what happens after putting the airbox back in and trying again. As of now, with the jets the way he had them, it will only rev up with the airbox inlet about 75% covered and under any circumstances, it WILL NOT run with the choke on – even halfway engaged, it cuts right out..
Hello Atv comunity. I am a newbie, not just to this sight, but to the Atv world. I just purchased my first quad last weekend. 05 magnum 330 awd. Great looking quad hasn’t been beat on too much. Its lived a farm life. I bought this non running for I think a good price knowing I had to monkey with it and add a few $ to it. I always try to fix my cars with the internets help I usually figure things out. So I wasn’t to scared of this.
I researched the discribe problems prior to purchase. My conclusion was it needs the thermister, (been removed) and probably an ecm if that doesn’t do the trick. Turn the key on and it just flashes hot. It starts well and Idless well, but cuts out and dies when throttling up. I see the boot from the carb to air tank is not on very well. So from what I read about these I am assuming/crossing my fingers that this may be the issue. I am curios though, I was told this had a lower end rebuild (not that I can truly trust that, no paperwork to prove) it does have a clanking sound as if metal were being slapped or somthing is this normal or a bad sighn?
Ok guys so here is my real question. My thermister part# 1010934 is discontinued, I have searched on line all week and at this point am frustrated and brain dead. Is there any other thermisters that would/ could work. I don’t feel like dropping a hundred bucks on a maybe from my dealer who won’t return electrical.
Final thoughts I am both extremely excited over this quad and extremely discontented with Polaris at the same time. I grew up looking at the Honda 3 wheeless and in the past few years polaris has made a name for itself. I am bothered that an 05 would be impossible to get parts for considering how many different units use the same part. Dealer said after 7 to 10 yeas they quit making them. Well my 2 cents thinks it’s criminal if they have sold out of parts they obviously need them because they had issues. When I purchased this I never considered a 12 year old machine to be obselete and didn’t forsee the issue. Polaris as well as all the atv makers need to realize. They have a whole line of customers those who can afford new, and those who can only afford projects like me. Leaves a bad taste in my mouth and I am very surprised I don’t hear much uproar about it.
Well I got kinda long winded, thanks for reading if you are still. Lol
And an even bigger thank you to those who reply. Have a great ride.
