I have a 2015 Polaris sportsman 850 sp with 28" ol2’s and 14" no limits wheels looking to put a lift on it and just not sure on what the best lift is

So i found a brand new set of 05 sportsman kimpex foot pegs and fender gaurds on the ole interwebs for a steal. Only problem is that they are for an ’05 and I have a ’14 400 h.o. I got a convincer and matches and a welder and stuff, so getting it to fit isn’t a problem, just looking to see if anyone else has done it and has some pics for inspiration.

New to ATVing here and just got a ’11 Grizz with the belt drive transmission and I’ve been suggested to take along an extra CVT belt along in remote rides just in case. I’m somewhat knowledgeable about where to get quality parts for cars but not so much for ATVs. Who makes the best CVT belt for my bike? Also, who makes just ok belts and who should I stay away from?

Also, I’m looking at getting a snatch block for a synthetic rope winch and wondered if the type rope determines what type of block you should get…or are all snatch blocks the same and I’m just thinking about this one too much?

Thanks

Yesterday my granddaughter came to borrow my 500X2 to go hog hunting and I did a check of everything and found a little oil in it. Popped the rad cap off but nothing in it. Checked the oil and still at same level and no water in it. Is this the making of a gasket going bad and time to get new ones put on. I guess after 11500 miles it is time for something to happen. I told her to be and sure and keep an eye on it and if anything happens park it.

I recently purchased a 2009 500 efi. I am only able to ride about once a month, should I drain the fuel when I’m done riding? I don’t want the fuel to get shitty in the motor. Thanks

My 06 polaris sportsman 90cc runs great but then just turns off.It gets no spark after it turns off. Any ideas of what it could be. Have already replaced the stator, cdi box,coil, and carb.

What is the best battery I can put in my 2006 Polaris 500 sportsman? Should I go to the dealer or should I go to Walmart? Thanks

I’ve seen the suggestion to either carry some kind of fire extinguisher or a fire retardant material on trail rides. I doubt I’ll be taking on the weight of even a small fire extinguisher, but I’d still like to have some way to put out a fire. What would be a good ‘fire extinguishing material’ I could bring along that would work say if a fire started in a hard to reach part of the motor that I could just maybe grab a hand full of and throw it on? I’m imagining it would be something granular like sawdust (but of course not sawdust).

Thanks
