570L Back to dealer

Welp next Friday I drop off a quad with 100 miles on it at the dealer
Having them check the shifter that came out of adjustment and ground low once or twice
as well as if I try to blip the throttle a few times the quad loads up and tries to shut off.
also the oil has a strong gassy smell.
Wish me luck call me picky but I expect everything perfect at the end of my warranty.

2014 Rancher ES 4×4 has a ticking noise coming from the rear end.

I recently purchased a 2014 Rancher Es 4×4 that only has 140 miles on it. There is a ticking or a clanking noise coming from the rear end. A clevis on the hitch receiver is what i chalked it up to initially. Then I took that off and realized it wasn’t the noise. Hopefully that gives you a better idea of the sound it’s making. The oil was changed at 140 as soon as i got it and nothing seemed out of the ordinary with the oil or filter. I know the previous owner and the bike has only been used for light farm work and hunting, so it hasn’t been ridden hard. The noise seems to be random when it occurs. I’m not familiar with Honda’s dual clutch system, so i don’t know if it is a normal sound or if i should be concerned. Any help is appreciated!

Lost key

So last Sunday I lost my key to my 2012 foreman. So after an exhaustive search I couldn’t find my spare so I got my key code off the ignition and was able to get a standard key cut for it. I ant to order a oem key blank and have it cut when I get it. Does anyone sell these besides the dealers? Any info is appreciated, thanks

Honda rancher stalls and wont start for an hour

2013 Honda rancher 420 es

It starts up normally, it will idle all day. Once i start riding, after 10-30 seconds it will start to seem like its not getting good gas flow and it stalls out. I try starting and it cranks fine but wont start. After it sits for an hour or so it will start again.

I have replaced the fuel filter. That made no difference.

Ideas?

Do I need a new battery

Probably a stupid question but I want to make sure. My rancher’s ES quit working. It was clicking under the seat and I went ahead and pulled the battery and charged it. Threw the battery back on and now it does nothing…. No clicks or anything. I just jump started the rancher with my truck using the ES and it cranked right up. That means it’s the battery correct??
