Just bought a 2000 400 scrambler a little over a week ago. We (my son and grandkids) took it and our other motly collection of quads (a honda trx 250x, a honda trx400ex, and an mz 100atv) trail riding. The machine had set idle for several years and pretty much all i did was change fluids, lubed it, adjusted the chain, and cleaned out the fuel system and off we went for two days of riding. I will say that it is an impressively well built machine. I unfotunately didnt know about seating the starter rope and am now rebuilding the starter due to about a cup full of muddy water finding its way in!
On the plus side there are grease fittings everywhere, something honda should do. Heck, they should have them on my superduty!
Thanks for having me and, being mostly experienced with diesels, I will probably asking a lot of dumb fuel system questions
Hey guys I have a problem I have a 2014 polaris sportsman 400 it has 2200kms on it now I have found a bolt stuck to the magnet I haven’t heard any noise coming from the bike or anything change wit slipping etc beside of the clucking noise when it’s costing down a ruff hill but that was there the very first day I bought and road the bike. I’ve looked online and it says ppl hear it all the time I’m debating on breaking it to the dealer but and I got warranty but I don’t want them to take it apart and then say it’s my fault and say it wasn’t change enough and then say here’s your bike back and a big ol bill cause my dealer sometimes is a bunch of turds most of the time.
I recently bought this bike 2 months ago, and have fell in love with it. I’ve already replaced the front right axle on it (my own fault for where I was going), but otherwise have had no problems with it.
Recently, after riding for about 2-3 minutes the Over Temperature light will come on, the bike will go into its "Engine Saving Mode", and then the light will start flashing and die. When I feel the sides of the motor, it is not very hot at all and should not be enough to be causing it to shut off. I checked fuses and relays along with the radiator to see if it was clogged, and the fluids are all in check as well. I don’t really know what else to check, and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Daughter was riding camping last week and it died. Took carb apart cleaned and fuel is flowing when cranking new spark plug and a new ignition coil and still won’t start. Thank you for the help
So I have a 2007 Polaris Sportsman 700 twin EFI and my bike was working perfectly fine until I washed it when I went to move the bike I turned the key and nothing. I usually hear the fuel pump kick in so I couldn’t my sound bar and nothing pressed turned the key and nothing. So I tried everything possible that would need my key switch on and nothing until I used my winch and that works… What could be the problem I also use a screwdriver on the solenoid and turns over but of couse without the fuel pump no start. Please help me I’m not good when it comes to electrical stuff. Thanks
I took my valve cover off of the rear cylinder and noticed this sitting next to my timing chain tensioner. Does anybody know what that is from? Thanks in advance.
