What is the best oil, crank case and all other fluids to be using on a 02 scrambler 400 2-stroke 4×4?? I plan on changing fluid very often to prevent having to do a rebuild in the future as I ride really hard at times

Best way to make plastic “shine”?
What is everybody’s favorite way to make plastic shine? I’ve been using Johnson paste. It’s very protective just isn’t very shiny
83 atc 200e REALLY high idle and won’t adjust
Ok so I was riding last weekend and everything was great, parked it and decided to take it for a spin today. Started right up but immediately went to full throttle! Though it was a sticky throttle cable but when I pressed the throttle to accelerate it reved even higher! So I then tried adjusting the idle and fuel/air mixtures screws but it did nothing, their was no apparent effect when I scewed them either in or out. I then took the carb off and replaced it with a carb from my 84 that I knew for a fact worked, and I got the same effect, I then changed the throttle cable out with the one from the same 84 that I knew worked and it still reved really high when i start it up, I tried the wd40 test for a vacuum leak and I couldn’t find one, I am completely out of options now please help!!???

2001 Scrambler 500 Primary clutch
Hello Guys,
Just curious if anyone has used one of the "Partsace" replacement primary clutches from Ebay complete with spring and weights ($215)? If so what was your opinion of it, looking to replace mine< buttons gone, sheaves worn, just all around bad shape..
Thanks
AGM Battery
My battery in the Rancher died. Thinking of getting this one. Price is right and reviews are rock solid. Anyone else here used this specific brand and model?
Also, how are AGM batteries in northern environments? Sits for a few weeks at a time between hunting weekends. Never had a problem with standard batteries and no tenders.
Zillas and flat tires
I was going to buy a set of Zillas. My last 2 riding trips has resulted in 3 flats for my buddy who runs them on his Polaris. I have had zero flats running the stock tires on my Grizzly on the same trips. My question is are these tires prone to flats? Im really 2nd guessing buying these tires now.
Can-Am snow plow mount
Wow! Just finished installing the Can-Am 715001411 Alpine plow mount kit on the 570 Renegade. Now if that isnt a hokie setup! I would think the smart ones at BRP could design something better than that!?! But it is installed. The real test will be once the snow flies and see well it holds up to a 60” blade. Anyone else use the Can-Am mount and think the same thing?
Cv tech and goodies installed outlander l 570
Well got everything installed and went for a rip today. All I can say is holy smackers! Gotta say thanks to cantbuytime and everyone that helped. The cv tech is amazing. Gotta do some tweaking but holy crap. The lil 570 is definitely in beast mode. Lol. Never thought she would wheelie and be so quick. Ended up with 2017 spring and 2006 weights. I added some weight tonight to help get the rpm down. Hitting the rev limiter in low at about 45mph so I added about 2.5 g to each slider. Gunna see if it helps. Also got the red epi secondary spring in. I wanna be about 7200 shift out in high and I’m currently at 7500ish. Engagement dropped a little to 1750- 1800 from 1900 with the 2.5 g increase. Hope I’m in the ball park we shall see. Rjwc exhaust and fuel controller are perfect added some fuel in first and third zones. Buddy has a 800 gade and he rode mine today , said he couldn’t believe it was only a 570. Totally pleased with all the mods.

Passanger side tire leaning inwards at top 350 Rancher pic included
My 2005 trx350 rancher right hand tire is leaning inwards at the top and I’m not sure why any one else have this issue? The ball joints are good and I swapped lower A arms with me other rancher to rule out if it was bent and it still leans inwards. I haven’t swapped upper A arms yet as to it was a job swapping the bottoms. I was thinking of ordering a used one off ebay but want to make sure its nothing else that could be before ordering it. I know its not a tie rod cause that makes the wheel go left to right now toe in and out on the camber.
