Hi, I’m new to the ATV world and this forum..
I was given an 03 Sportsman 700 that has been left out in the New England weather for the last two years. After some trial and error I finally got it running (change oil,install new battery,replace spark plug and carb to air box boot and air filter). Tried to take it for a test ride and the clutch was frozen,got that working,(still needs to be replaced tho) got it out side and wouldnt shift when running,I worked that a bit and its working now,although a little hard to shift still.
I still need to replace a torn CV boot, exhaust donut gasket ,ball joint and wheel bearing.its a lot of work but I am enjoying it and learning a lot.
So thats where I am at, i have been reading this forum for a week or so and thought i would register and say Hi.
