So I went mudding yesterday no issues till I pull up to the truck to load up. Felt like the bike was dragging or something. So today I took a closer look at the bike and the rear caliper is hanging up and the rear brake cylinder has no pressure you can push it down with one finger. Anyone experience this or have an idea what might be the issue is?

Hello guys!

Me and my is planning a trip to USA and maybe Canada July/August next summer. Any tips where will should go? Any nice trail where you can rent a side-by-side with cabins a long the route. We would prefer the more northern part of the US.
Any info would help I guess.

Having a hard time finding master brake cylinder for 1997 Polaris express 300, does anyone know what other Polaris master brake cylinder is interchangeable with mine? would appreciate the help!

2012 850 Sports. Tour. HO.
wanting to replace throttle cable. Having trouble seeing where it heads down to throttle body area.
Anyone have any ideas on where cable is headed to and how difficult to replace it?
Thanks bunch.

This is why. I live 1 hour from the trail head. A shot from Kingston Peak yesterday.

What’s up guys? I own a 2006 Honda Rancher 350FM 4×4. I am currently a college student in south Florida and have luckily saved enough money to buy myself an atv. I used to own a Yamaha Timberwolf 250 but that thing was junk lol Honda alllll day baby. Anyways, I’ve got my rancher snorkeled and on a small lift as well as 28′ vampire superswampers. I also have a set of 25′ mudlites I use to ride on the road to the area we go to locally. My very good friend from my home town has helped me tremendously from the day I got this machine. He picked it up for me and helped me do all of the initial work on it and has been in my hometown since then. He did the majority of the 4×4/2×4 driveshaft switch out for me as well as helping install the disk brake conversion. What I’m getting at is that I’m not very good at working on the bike and need knowledge from elsewhere. Now I have the atv at my place for the first time finally and just spent over 350$ in tools since I’m starting from nothing. I just changed the front and rear diff fluids as well as the oil so I’m not a complete newbie. As far as I know, it has never been to a dealership or at least hasn’t been in over 5 years and I’ve owned it for almost 9 months now. I don’t have a truck so It has been an interesting experience for me. I’m just thankful that I can own an atv in college without a truck and still be able to work on and ride it. I’m sure I’ll have plenty of questions for you guys though. Thanks!!!!

Honda 2009 Rancher 420

The PS light may come on one day and then not for a week, makes hard to steer. What can be done?

Zilch

When i only had the 734 bbk on the grizz i was able to still keep her cool with the fan running all the time it was easy to keep the temps under 212F with stock fan/radiator. Since the motor rebuild to a 778 and the HOT weather i’ve had two rides where it was really difficult to keep the temps down.. The ride that i listed in my other american star CS thread I was floating 225F during a steady grade to the top of the boise foot hills that day it was about 97F outside with no wind and no clouds in the sky. I know from experience that the engine temp light turns on about 230 and you have potential to break open your thermostat at around 227F. I was really close to that but the temp light on the grizz never came on.

This last Friday i finished the new tierod install "which was much easier that I thought it would be given the allen head bolt on the hiem ends" and yesterday i took the grizz out south of my house a few minutes outside of boise for a test ride. I put on a quick 38 miles and the tierods are nice and solid. I got back to the house sprayed down the grizz and let it just sit drying off as i sat there drinkin beer. I then started her up and let the grizz get warm around 170F then parked her in front of my garage door in the driveway. I sat down on the pavement tossing a tennis ball for my puppy when i noticed i was loosing antifreeze out of the grizz 🙁 Looks like i blew another water pump seal!! I’m sure its from getting to hot the ride before this one.

She’s now back in the garage and half torn down .. I’ve got on order an aftermarket 3 core radiator and a spal HO fan along with new waterpump seals. I should have just done this from the beginning but at the time i just didn’t want to tear apart the front end of the grizz as well…

The wrenching continues on this ol’girl……… I should have known i wasn’t finished :cussing:

If there’s interest i’ll post up pics along the way of the new radiator and fan install and any difficulties i run into.. It appears to be a good bit bigger than the stock radiator I hopefully wont have any issues with the install.

went for a ride yesterday and the temp light came on. This is the first time it has happened, we were riding slow through technical trails and was probably 90+ degrees. We stopped and let it cool down and checked fluid in radiator just to make sure there wasnt a leak. I am assuming the reason for the light was just riding too slow in high heat. It only came on once. Is there anything to be concerned about?
