Where’s the vin?

Hi guys,

I’ve just got a honda atv and want to change the oil and filter, but don’t know the year of the atv. I know it’s a 250cc, but the chap I bought it from doesn’t know the age.

I’ve read that you can idenitify the age from the vin number, but I can’t find the find it.

Any ideas where it is located?

I’m in the UK if that makes any difference.

Thanks

Andy

Spark plug gap ?

What are you guys running for spark plug gap ? I set my spark plug gap to .034 it runs good but has the grizzly fart if I bring the gap up to .038 it goes away. In the manual it says .032 I think up to 0.35 should I try and bring the gap smaller to see if the pop when I shut it off goes away ?

Tires and rims for 570 eps

Just picked up a new 2016 sportsman 570 eps. Looking for some new tires and rims. Want to go a little bigger then stock but don’t want to do any mods. I will be mostly riding trails some mud and snow. Not sure If I should stay with 25" or 26" 12" or 14" rims also would like to get a radial tire and smooth ride. Where is the best place to buy already mounted. Also would would like to stay under $900 otd. Thanks in advance.
