2012 Polaris Sportsman 500 HO headlight switch reassembly

Hello everyone,

New member here, name is Adam and I have a 2012 Polaris Sportsman 500 HO and all of a sudden the headlights and tail light quit working. We checked the fuses under the front storage compartment and they were all good. I took apart the headlight switch and all of a sudden two bb’s fell out as well as a couple copper pieces and springs. It’s a nightmare! Can anyone help with reassembly? Possibly some pictures of how it should look inside the headlight/kill switch box once all parts are placed? Thanks everyone and hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and happy holidays!

Stalling issue (with video)

Hello!
After few times stalling, my Grizzly stopped to turn on. After checking the diagnostics menu I found out, that there was a problem with lean angle sensor and fuel system.
I took tge lean angle sensor apart, but still couldn’t get the quad to start up nicely.
In the video you can see that the quad only runs when you continuously press and release the gas lever otherwise it stalls.
I think that my fuel pump needs replacing, but will this solve this problem?
Please see the video on youtube (google this) – qncwGR3Kq0E

Inaccurate oil change instructions?

I have seen a few posts on oil capacity decrepencies and now have experienced the same thing myself. Have to think it is a manual error? I was changing the oil for routine maintenance on my 2014 Honda Rancher and the instructions clearly say to add 2.9 Quarts. By the time it registered on the dip stick at the right level it took much closer to 3.9 quarts than 2.9. Wondered if anyone had any thoughts on if this is an error by Honda or am I doing something very wrong.

2016 Sportsman 1000 TOURING clutch kit

Anyone know of a clutch kit out there that would fit the 2016 sportsman 1000 touring?

EPI is not sure if their kit would fit the 2016 touring model.
Highlifter has one for 2015 1000 touring but they dont think it would fit the 2016 1000 touring.

If by some ridiculous chance someone has a 2016 sportsman 1000 touring and they installed a clutch kit, or they know of a clutch kit that would fit, PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!

New take-offs on my old Sportsman

I’m looking at some new take-off wheels and tire packages on Craigslist. Is there anything I need to consider when choosing what take-offs to get? There are a lot of good deals for ATV and utv take-offs that are the same tire size I have but I’m but sure if the rims are the same offset. I have a 2004 Sportsman 400.

2001 Traxter 500XL wont idle up and backfires

My Traxter 500XL cuts out when reving engine. Can get more RPMs with choke on but still cuts out and backfires. Mine has not been run in 10 years. Gas is new, Fuel pump is new, carb has been cleaned professionally with new jets and everything is very clean and all wires look to be in place. Very low hours on this machine. Have not done the fuel filters yet because they are in the tank. Tried looking for vaccume leak by spraying carb cleaner did not find one. Any help would be appreciated!
