Hey guys (and gals), been watching the thread on and off for some time while searching for a used ATV to buy. Used a lot (and broke a lot) of Polaris 4 wheelers in Afghanistan and finally broke down and got one for my own. Ended up going with a 2008 Polaris Sportsman 500 HO. Quick questions though, when I research the VIN it says HO EFI? Anyway, I am slowly ( new tricks and old dogs…) learning about the vehicle and how to properly maintain it. I started with changing all the fluids and clearing out the air filter box. Its more of a therapy thing for me to just tear stuff apart and learn how to put it back together. Hopefully, when I tear something apart and can’t put it back together – you all can set me straight lol. Anyway, Cheers all and looking forward to being a art of the forum.
