Hello folks, I’m not new to atv’s but new to Polaris. I just picked up a 1994 Sportsman 400 4×4 that is in pretty great condition. Everything seems to work as it should, with the exception of the brake pads seem to be worn down, so that is my first order of business along with fluid changes. It does have a 3 point hitch on the rear that works fine along with a box blade attachment. I look forward to getting all the maintenance taken care of and spending some time on this thing. Is there anything in particular that I need to look out for or pay attention to on this particular model? Thanks in advance.
Im about to buy my 1st cargo box. I was hoping for a pro and cons answer to see if l should go with a hard box or fabric box?? I like the security of the hard but the fabric seems a lot more versatile.
Hi I am new to these forums but I have a problem. I have a 2007 800 efi and the rear suspension is bad. I have the shocks at max but it seems that the springs might be shot. I only have 500 miles on them. does anyone have any ideas as per why or what my best options would be.

First off hi everybody and thanks for having me here!. Ok heres the deal. I aquired this 08 Outlaw 90 in a trade for some old rims I had laying around. Runs great, looks great, and drives decent. Well drove I guess I could say 🙁 . Im decently mechanically inclined, but am not familiar with cvt drive systems. When I put it into gear, either forward or reverse, i would have to "mess" with the shift lever to get it to go into gear. It would lightly click and clack a little before (fully?) Engaging. Then while riding, it seemed like it was revving higher than it should be in comparison to how fast it was going. Like it was slipping almost rather than reaching top speed. The transmision/ clutch also seems pretty loud like a whining I guess you could say. So today I pulled the cvt cover off, and removed the belt just to get a good look around. Nothing was dirty or dusty and the belt is intact and seems to be of good condition (although I dont know exactly how it should look when its right) but it looks fine to me. I didnt want to delve any deeper than that bc I dnt know much about these systems. One thing struck me as odd but may be perfectly normal, idk. The secondary clutch seems to operate and pull in as it should, but it moves around alot? Like it pivots an inch or so in every direction? Is it supposed to be like that or should it be locked in place and free spinning? As far as the primary clutch, im not able to push it in or pull it out or anything by hand like I can on the secondary. So I put the belt back on and painstakingly got the cover back on bc the way the secondary moves around. I had to try and hold it in place and get the shaft to go into the bearing in the cover. Got it all back together exactly how it came apart finally. Started right up. But now when I put it in gear, it goes in forward or reverse with no problems, but it makes a load clacking sound. It kinda jeks into either gear and immediatly starts clacking. If I give it gas, it stalls out. Sorry for being so long winded, I but I am in desperate need of help!!!!! Thanks in advance

My name is Jake, im 14 years old and lm from Ross ohio. I’ve been riding Dirtbikes most of my life, but I recently bought a 2014 400 HO,(with the help of my dad) and thought this would be a good forum to seek advice on for modifying my ATV. I enjoy motocross as well as hitting the mud on my 400 with my friends who also ride ATVs.
I look forward to meeting all the other riders on this forum:)
