Wanted to share how I generally keep up with service, specifically tractors, generators, boats, etc. I typically mark up the last service on many components (oil filters, air filters, radiator, etc.) on my equipment with a Sharpie. Personally, I find it very handy because during use, I can quickly see the last time the unit was serviced relative to engine hours.

I purchased a 2015 Pioneer 700 last year and after about 1000km of use I noticed that the transmission was missing when it was cold. It is progressively getting worse. I live in Canada so the winter time warm up is quite a waiting session. I heard that this is a common problem with Honda xmissions but have not clear information on the cause and solution to the problem. Can anybody help?

Looking to buy better tires for the quad as the stockers aren’t quite cutting it. Will I have any issues (i.e., significant power loss, rubbing, etc?) with 26" tires (if I find a cheaper set on Kijiji).
Any tire recommendations? Not looking for something really aggressive like Zilla’s, but they have to be better than the stockers for some of the muskeg we have around here.

so I was plowing snow with my 2014 outlander 1000 XMR, and I started hearing a clicking noise coming from the front of the quad when I would shift from forward to reverse. after a bit it turned into a grinding noise and my front wheels stopped getting power in 4X4. turned out that my front propeller shaft stripped its splines in the bushing attached to the visco lok differential. I load it into my truck and take it to my brothers house so I can use his heated shop to take the prop. shaft off. we just got hit with a blizzard so I backed into his driveway so the plow could get by on the street. his driveway had about 6 inches of snow in it I backed the quad off of the truck and couldn’t get any traction in 2 wheel drive so I’m pushing the quad backwards while my brother is giving it throttle in reverse the wheels are spinning and all of a sudden there is a loud snap, clunk, clunk, clunk from the rear end. the pinion broke 2 teeth off of the ring gear exactly like last time, the first time happened with just over 400 KM on it, this time there is just over 900 KM on the machine.
moral of the story is that R does not stand for Reverse, it stands for Repair.
the first pic is the ring gear of the first diff that broke and the second pic is of the second ring gear that broke. 3rd and 4th pictures are of the front propeller shaft and the bushing.
So I have been trying all day to figure this out by doing side by side picture Comparisons, and from what I can tell by the pictures is that my 2000 Scrambler 500HO 4×4 has the same frame as (or very little difference) as the 2015 Scrambler 1000 XP…. If I have to add tabs etc, it doesn’t look like it would be much trouble…. My reason for asking is that I absolutely hate the Fenders on my year and I would like to put the newer style fenders on mine…. Any input would be very much appreciated….
Hey everyone….Just getting back in the ATV world after a13 yr hiatus…. I’ve never owned a Polaris before…..I’ve found over time that the best place to find knowledge on the unknown is to join the forums….I hope to be helpful to somebody on here some day…. Hoonigan 4 Life….Keep Calm and Hoon On….
Been searching the site but can’t find the answer I’ve been looking for so this is my first post here.
I’ve got a 2010 400 HO that’s been pretty good to me until now. I’ve got the whole thing torn down tracing wires trying to trace a no-start condition. Replaced the solenoid because jumping it with a screwdriver got the engine to turn over but after replacing it I’ve got the same problem. I’m not going to throw money at parts to hope I get it right so what sends signal to the solenoid?
My key turns on the panel, it reads miles and all but just won’t turn the engine over. Everything else works on the bike so I’m missing something..What??
I’m guessing maybe key switch or the panel itself but again, not just going to throw money swapping parts. Thanks.
