So girlfriend got me the XMR rear bumper for an early Xmas present. Talked to John (Vforce) and was told it won’t fit, needs to be trimmed i believe where the tips dump. Anybody know just where and if anything else needs to be mod’d to fit the muzzy’s?

Hi all-

I am shopping for a used ATV. I am trying to learn up on Polaris models through the years and am trying to find general info like when which models came out, or generational changes, etc.. engine, chassis or trans milestones.

My use is as a utility quad to maybe plow snow with, ice fishing transport, dog training, maybe some groomed trails. No hard core trail or back country riding. Never owned a ATV but have owned and maintained motorcycles. Looking to stay more lightweight- 330, 400 or 500 sized model tops.

I have found a few places with some info, but most of it is either news models newer than 2009 or by model and year. Like these pages at PSN and ATVRiders.

ATV, UTV, SxS, Side x Side, Quad Sport Utility Models from Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki, Polaris, Can-Am, Arctic Cat, Kymco, Cobra, John Deere

I could not find much on these forums so I thought I would ask. Is there a sort of comprehensive guide to Polaris ATV’s through the years?

Some things I am looking to learn-
When did the switch from 2cycle to 4 cycle happen?
Are there preferred models over others?
How are parts availability for models through the years.
Are there real differences between say a Sportsman 400 and 500 other than the 100 cc’s?.
What really is the difference between the 500 and the 500 HO.

Thanks in advance

I have a 2002 Honda Rancher 350 Es that I just bought a big bore kit for and it has now arrived! It’s going in an extra engine that came with the atv which once had a big bore kit in it. The guy I bought it from didn’t like it for some reason so swapped the motor out with the one that is in it currently.

For this build I’m just replacing rings, piston, and gaskets since the sleeve that is in it, is one for the big bore kit, the 375. While doing that I’m also putting in a clutch kit before the motor goes back in.

What I am wondering is if anyone has any advice or has seen any walkthroughs for installing these kits. I plan on cleaning the motor out very well to make sure there is no debris in the motor for it to smoke afterwards.

Does anybody have any suggestions or things they would have done differently on theirs for when I build my motor tomorrow afternoon/night? Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Hi guys , i’m looking to get a predator 03 i would like to know how reliable these atv are ? Another question , the predator has not been use more than 3-4 times the last 3-4 years …What should i do , Only a small tune up like oil , filter , spark plug or should i clean the carb ?

I recently obtained a 85 ATC 200s. This trike has been sitting for years. I emptied and replaced the gas. Changed the oil and completely cleaned the carb out. Also removed throttle cable and confirmed the little c clip is in the middle groove on the needle. New plug and foam air filter. The trike starts right up! I put the choke on and it runs at full throttle. When the choke lever is pushed all the way down to the off position it absolutely screams. Adjusting the idle screw out and it does nothing. Can someone help? Could it be the throttle cable? I sprayed carb cleaner on carb and rubber hoses while idling and it doesnt make it rev worse. Doesnt appear to be a vaccuum leak. Please help.

Okay so I just converted my 350 to 4×4 this past weekend. I hate the all time 4×4 though. I know about the drive shaft switch outs but I don’t like the way they look on the bike.
Does anyone know if swapping the front diff out of a rancher 400 and getting the handlebar switch would work? Ive compared the diffs of a 350 and 400 and the mounts are the exact same. But there’s three plugs on the 400 diff and I would only have one for the handle bar switch. Would the other two plugs matter if I left them unplugged?
Would this mod work?

Okay so this past weekend I converted my TRX350TE to a TRX350FE. Well before I did the conversion my bike went completely straight down the road without even having to hold the bars. Well after I got everything bolted on, one of my tires was tied in so far that I could only turn the bars in one direction. Well I adjusted it out straight. But now when I go down the road the bike pulls really hard to the right, and if you don’t hold the bars tight for even a second it will turn right so hard it will almost flip in the road.
Any ideas?
