Newbie to ATVs

Hey guys. I am new to working on these things but I build engines, transmissions and rearends for my cars and trucks, so I figure I can get the hang of maintenance. I don’t actually own an ATV but I ride my Mom-in-laws ,lol. Since I get to ride it, I get to do all the fix-it jobs.:veryhappy:

New to the world of ATV`s

I would like to thank the managers for allowing me to join this sight
and say hi to all the members.

Back in 2004 I bought my only ATV it was a Polaris. One I picked up from a friend who just bought it new but fell ill and it only had 48 Km`s on it.
I have enjoyed many hrs.on the trail going to hunting sights, and fishing holes over the yrs. It never been in any mud holes and with only 5400 Km`s on it.
I am sure it spend more time on my trailer than in the bush.

A little about myself I am retired 69 and still enjoy the outdoors Fishing, Hunting, and just sightseeing, The ATV gives me the ability to do all the things I still love lol as a old fart.

Hi everyone , I just thought I would introduce myself, my name is Pete and I am from southwestern Ontario . I just purchased a new to me 2010 sportsman 500 HO . I had a Polaris magnum 425 (1998) a couple years ago other than that I haven’t had an atv since my 1984 Suzuki 125 that we sold in 1992 . So it’s good to be back riding again . My machine is pretty plain Jane right now but thanks to this site I have discovered all sorts of accessories that I plan on adding to it . Like the 3 headlight mod , I just bought a terra 25 winch and am waiting for the KFI bracket to come in to install it . Also ordered the plastic cover with cutout for winch from Polaris (that I discovered thanks to this site) and plan on getting ATV Guru front and rear bumpers in the near future . I will post some pics if I figure out how . Thanks Pete

Newbie seeking advice

Hey guys new to the forum, I have searched your site for a while but finally got around to making a profile. I am in search of some advice.
I am looking to purchase another 4 wheeler, something more utility wise. I have a Polaris now and have had Yamaha but mainly "sport"quads. I have narrowed it down to a 1998 Yamaha bear tracker 250 or a 1999 Polaris trail boss 250, I like the Polaris BUT the only thing holding me back is the auto transmission.. any advice would be gratefully appreciated!
