Hi folks 1st time checking in

I am spotting for Tony Pellegrino again this year at the King of the Hammers and I’m bringing my Quad.
Anyone going to be there and know the area ?

I have been with Yamaha since 1988 when I started work as a mechanic at the Good Time Center in Saint John, New Brunswick.
I recently made the switch to BRP and a 2016 Outlander 1000 and love it.
I live on Vancouver Island British Columbia.
Love you site and group.

I have a 2012 700. Just put a brand new battery on it since it had a dead cell. I rode around for a while and went to start it and it wouldn’t start. I’m not sure if the radiator relocate is what is draining it, since the fan is wired to the battery (bought it like that). Wasn’t sure where to start since this is my first atv I’ve ever owned. I didn’t leave anything on when I turned it off. Any ideas or suggestions as to what I can look at?

I cleaned my oem pre filter and im all out of oil for tomorrow’s ride…. Is there a good substitute?

Last week I spent my annual week in Dorchester County, MD chasing the Marsh Ghost, the elusive Sika deer. Thanks to my 2016 Rancher I can access areas that I couldn’t get to any longer due to my age (72) and bad knees. It performed great last year and now it did as well this year. I increased the stiffness of the suspension which allowed for a better ride with two hunters and gear. One day we had two of us, two rifles, packs and two 50# bags of corn.

The main trail in which was beginning to get a high center in certain spots. Never got stuck though but had to improvise three different paths around a particularly nasty hole. Had to winch out of it last month during a work party.

Second shot was where we had to park.

Next was a nasty muddy part but the wheel ruts were solid underneath and didn’t give us a problem.

Next is a spike stag in the Honda drop basket.

Last is the meat pole with two spikes and two hinds (does). The one got half eaten by foxes overnight. I passed up a small spike and hind but the one big stag I couldn’t get a clean shot at so I actually didn’t shoot one this year but came home with the one on the right. We had a spare deer.

Just thought you guys would like to see what we do with these machines which to me was worth its weight in gold.

I need some advice please. Which vehicle is more comfortable for long trail rides, an ace style atv or sit on style atv? Just getting into the sport and I think our riding will be more of the sight seeing type of trail riding so I am trying to figure out which type of vehicle would be best for those needs. Thanks.

My nephew is begging me to get into trail riding and I was advised to look at Polaris and join this forum to learn more about the sport. So, here I am!

I pulled the skid plate off a 2016 Rancher to clean the mud and junk out and took advantage of it being off to adjust the angle of the foot shift down a little. Undid the bolt and spread the socket a little with a screwdriver and the shifter loosened up but the frame would not allow me to pull it off and reposition it. I ran out of daylight so couldn’t see it I could unbolt the piece in the way to complete the job.
