ebs

Hi all I have a 2006 sportsman 500 efi with ebs and want to understand it better … I live in B.C where everything local to me is steep grades and I love hill climbs but hate the ass end lock up on the way back down the hills !
isn’t that what the ebs is for ?
my 09 canam 800 was awesome coming down the hills (no lock up ass end)
am I missing something hear?
mabey clutch rebuild …. or is there something that can be done to the machine to have smooth ebs decents?

thanks in advance

oil change

a question after changing the oil and removing the sump plug.

which line and where at on the line do you clamp?

Do you really hear a big rush of air come through the line?

1997 Sportsman 400 shifter problem.

I’ve been fixing my 97 Sportsman, finally down to the last bugaboo: Shifter is frigged. I can either get reverse and fwd low range, or fwd low and hi, but no reverse. I can’t find a replacement shifter, my mechanic has given up on fixing it. Anyone have a handle on a shifter that would fit, or how to fix the old one? Part number 3233458 handle subasm no longer available.

Shut-off switch for rear lights

I am considering installing a switch to have the ability to turn off the rear tail lights. There are times, when in the woods hunting, that I would prefer to not have them on. I am sure I can trace the wiring, and figure a place to break into it to install a switch. I am wondering if anyone else has tried this, and may have any suggestions on where/how to mount the switch.

Polaris Magnum 425 mods

I have a 96 polaris magnum 425 and i am looking to gain some power. I seen where people said if you jet you carb that it will have a nice power gain but what else can i do to gain some power? What performance will a epi sport utility clutch kit add? When i jet the carb do i need a 500 carb or keep my 425 carb?

Also should i go with mega mayhems in a 27 or zillas in a 27
