RhinoMan

I have a Yamaha Rhino 700 side by side. When I go to start it as long as the key has the starter engaged it sounds like it is gonna run great. But as soon as I let off the key it quits. And underneath by the battery is a large square fuse looking box that clicks. It doesn’t click it has a short arcing sound. Can anyone give me an idea of what I need to do to get this problem fixed. Thanks in advance.

Cv Restoration input

Ok, so I’m needing to replace a torn front outboard cv boot. Maybe the joint too. Figure I might as well upgrade to a HD if the price is right. I’ve read a lot on the forums, seen how costly some are etc.
I found a pair of affordable ones from cv restoration. Also found many mixed reviews on the quality of his products. But the reviews/posts were a few years old. Anyone have any thoughts on his current products? How they’re holding up? Customer service? I’m considering the Extreme Axles if I do the whole thing. Or the HD joint & boot kit. (I think the boot is the only thing hd tho)
I’m assuming if I replace the bad side axle with the Extreme I should also replace the opposite side to match? Thanks in advance for your replies!

starter relay issues

I have a 2002 grizzly 660 and when i turn the key on, all displays and lights come on. When i I press the start button I get a buzzing sound from the starter relay. I’m pretty sure there is enough juice in the battery. I tried putting a screwdriver to connect the two input/bolts on the starter relay for a second and saw a spark but nothing happened. I never heard the starter. Is there something going on between the relay and connections to ground/engine and/or starter? Any ideas? This is my first post so any feedback is welcomed. Thanks.

Having electrical problems on my 1996 yamaha kodiak.

Ok. I’m at my wits end here. Here’s the problem I’m having. Last week we went riding. When we came back, my kodiak 400’s reverse light now stays on in any gear. Even neutral. The neutral light will not come on at all. So obviously the electric start doesn’t work. When I turn the key on, but not start it, the lights do NOT work. When I start it with the pull crank and turn the lights on they work. And then the reverse light will go out and the neutral light will come on. Can anyone PLEASE help me before I go nuts?!

Hatfield Mccoy recommendations?

Hey all, a group of 5 of us (right now) are planning a 3 day ride in early March to Hatfield Mccoy. It’ll be our first time there. Wondering if anyone can recommend lodging and trail heads they liked?
We have been to Brimstone and Ride Royal Blue several times staying at both the hotel in town and rented cabins. We really preferred the cabin rental at the trails to avoid unloading and loading every day.
Let me know your thoughts and favorite trails too. Thanks!
