Starter removal

I am trying to remove the starter on my Grizzly 350 4×4. I removed the two rear bolts on the starter and it is loose. I there something else that need to be done to remove it? I can’t get it to slide out. Thanks

500 renegade won’t start.

I got a 2008 renegade for my wife. We were out riding yesterday and stopped for a bite to eat. She went to start her machine and there was a clicking noise in the rear of the bike. After a few tries it did eventually start. When we got home she shut the bike off when she went to restart it it made same clicking noise and than it went dead. No power for anything. No dash, no lights. Could the starter relay blow a fuse?? I am going to check the fuses after I post this. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am new to the can am community.

Rear Winch Mount

Hey Guys ,
I did find a few post about rear winch mounts , I’m considering making a rear winch mount combination 2nd battery box .
There is a lot of room in the back of the machine . I would basiclly re-design the hitch mount and integrate a battery box and winch mount into my design and possibly utilize the open frame rail tubes for added support in my design .
Has anyone made anything like this ?

Now I found one on EB . Bikemen performance stage 2 kit none adjustable weights and it comes with a helix. I’m kinda of lost, don’t know what to get.
Would like to walk in the mud LOL .

2007 Sportsman 90 Won’t Rev Up

Hello all. I have used this forum for years from time to time and always found what I was looking for. Today I finally joined as I ran into an issue with the kids’ Sportsman 90 that I couldn’t find anything on.

We bought this machine used about 1.5 years ago and has run good up to this point. The machine has been run several times this year and this time we had it out for a week long trip. It was running fine and then quit moving. It will idle all day long but as soon as you push the throttle, it sounds like it is on the rev limiter. However, when you engage the brake, all is well. The motor will wrap up normally. Let off the brake and try to go, and you are back to the rev limiter.

I pulled the carb and checked the jets and all is well as expected. I suspect this is some "safety" measure shorted out or something but am looking for some help.

300TRX 2wd parts needed… where?

An old man down the street passed away a few days ago and I wound up with his ’95 300TRX 2wd. It neds some work but it runs and I only plan to ride to the deerstand and back down a dirt road (I have a rzr1000 to play with). Any parts yards that sell online or recommended websites? I know I need to completely rebuild the rear brakes and new bearings and seals out back and pretty much the same thing up front. Tore the final drive apart today and ordered bearings but not sure what to do with the brakes. Are there upgrades available or where can i pick up a used one that still works? Want to finish the rear then head to the front
