Guys, i have a 2002 sportsman 400 that starts and runs when you gently push the throttle, however when you push it as you would when normal riding it just stalls out. I’ve been through the carb and boots on both ends of the carb. replaced the cam and adjusted the the valves to .006. After doing these steps all is the same. starts and runs under lightly push on the throttle but when you hit it hard it just stalls and may even backfire.

Hi everyone I’m new to this site was looking for some answers for a problem I’m having with a 90 predator and stumbled across this website so I decided to join . I have six quads 3-90s 1-50 1-500 scrambler 1-250 trail blazer( The 50 was for my youngest son which has moved up to a 90 so will be getting rid of the 50 soon . Now from my problem the 2004 90 if you are riding it for about an hour it locks up like it is a seized motor but will roll in neutral but after it cools down starts right back up and you could drive it no problem clutches look good anybody have any ideas what it could be ?? I know this oil in the transmission but how about with the clutches are there’s is a fill and drain plug dealer says nothing goes in there ? Thanks any help would be very much appreciated

Thought I would drop in and say hello! As the title says I am from Michigan. Just bought my first ATV, its a Camo 2015 Sportsman 570. Went up to deer camp in the Upper Peninsula last weekend (Menominee County, South of Escanaba) and while up there we checked out a few ATV dealers. Ended up brining this home. Already have some plans to add things like a brush guard and racks.

Wanted to stop by here to introduce myself. New rider from Moore, Oklahoma. The wife and I just recently bought a new 2015 570 touring with the EPS. Absolutely love it. We’re new to the ATV world. I’ve ridden motorcycles for over 20 years, everything from sport bikes to Harleys and a few in between. We reached a point to where the wife and I and some of our riding friends just weren’t enjoying it like we used to. So what do you know, one of our friends who had a couple ATVs for their farm land talked us into buying some and we don’t have a single regret. Its been a blast so far. Only thing I have done to it so far is add a front rack and a polaris 3500lbs winch. Tires will be next and in the future a brush guard along with an LED light bar for the night riding we do at our friends land.

Hello all. I’m new to the forum and the world of ATV’s.

I’m currently looking at two ATV’s right now, a Polaris Outlaw 525 IRS and a Yamaha YFZ 450.

Thanks for adding me and I look forward to learning.

Hello, new here. Looking forward to being a part of this. Just bought a new 2015 570 Indy Red Sportsman. New atv owner.

Thanks,

Well…after tweaking on that ’07 500 earlier last week (and then missing out), I ran down a different rig. I ran up to Utah and picked up an ’04 Sportsman 700 Twin from Triple S Polaris in Cedar City. Lots of new stuff on it…brakes, tires, KPI plow setup, battery, and all fluids. I wasn’t finding much of interest locally, so I expanded my search a little bit. It’s got like 340 hours on it, but figured it has had enough recent work that it should get me by for a while.

It’s my first quad…never owned one of my own, but really needed to have something around for snow removal. Pretty happy with it so far. I had them swap out the stock headlights for some Rigid Industries Duallys. I also scored a killer deal on a front brush guard and a rear bumper. Should be fun to pimp this thing out.

Here’s what it looks like so far:Attachment 27643Attachment 27644

Hi folks, first time for me on this forum, and first time owner of an atv and I know there are other similar threads, but I could not find an answer, so am trying again. The Polaris site does not go back as far as 1993. I did download a service manual which is helpful, but doesn’t give me a clue as to how this thing should operate. We are in the Havelock Ontario area, and my first request for a part at a dealer (auxillary brake caliper seals) I was told it was discontinued. Looks like this will be an interesting journey!

Hi all
Just an intro just bought my first Polaris this year, 2002 500 first quad really. Mainly just for around the farm and hunting when I get the chance. Also just bought an early 2004 500 to fix up, it’ll keep me busy over the long Manitoba winter.

Hey there, new to the board and "will be" new to ATV’s soon! I’ve ridden dirt bikes – although so long ago we’re talking steam-powered! – street bikes, mountain bikes and raced go karts but never so much as ridden an ATV. I’ve been lurking for awhile, have read a ton of the great information available on this site and I think I’m ready to pull the trigger on a new 570 SP. I’ve looked at a few different brands and models and I like this bike. My intent is to do some motoring on forest service roads, trails, backwoods fishing and even some snow plowing. I look forward to learning more form y’all and will post pics once I get something!
