I have a 100% stock 2015 sportsman. I hooked the gps to my atv yesterday to see how accurate the speedometer was, at 60mph on the dash, the gps read 64. Has anyone else compared the two? Could it be a case by case thing? I also think that is the fastest that I have had my sportsman, what have others topped theirs out at?
1998 honda fourtrax 400 front end
Hi All,
Brand new to the forum and quadding. Just bought a 1998 fourtrax 400 that needs front drive shaft and brakes. Should I do a rebuild or buy a complete front end?

DIY Bling!
We ended up wrapping our car in house with a pretty cool matte metallic apple green. The black fenders looked good against the green, but I just wasn’t feeling the black mounting bolts. So here’s what I did…..
Hit the heads of the bolts with some 400 grit wet dry sand paper and the coating came right off.
Busted out the drill and polishing wheel and dressed the wheel with a little liquid metal polish and put a quick polish on the heads.
Cleaned them off with a little brake cleaner, and hit them with a light coat of clear enamel so they keep their luster.
Now they reallly stand out against the black fenders.
So if your up on your honey do list on a Sunday afternoon and there’s no sports on the tube, this is an easy project that adds a little bling to your ride.

Stock Exhaust
Surely someone should have a stock muffler around. I like mine but I also like to be more stealth lol. Willing to trade etc? A bunch of different years and models fit I do believe.

Hello everyone, I have a 2014 polaris rzr 800s with the razor tech 2" lift and springs. I am looking to put bigger tires on it without having any problems. For those of you that are running a bigger tire please let me know what tires you are using. Thank you in advance, John
Trail Boss Brake shaft bushing?
I am refurbishing a 94 Trail Boss. This machine had no bearing or bushing in the steel plate that surrounds the rear brake shaft. Is there supposed to be a bearing or bushing at that location? I looked at Partzilla. com at it showed nothing or identified anything for that shaft at that location. Is there something available new or aftermarket?
Thanks
Thanks
Thinking about going to a Polaris from Kawie
Well like it says I’m pondering trading in my 2014 Brute Force for a Sportsman Touring. Basically I want a touring for my wife so she can go with me on some rides. She doesn’t want her own machine at all so this is kind of where I’m at. I love my Brute Force with its instant power and and sporty like handling, but I know Polaris rides better. she nor I are into sxs so this is the best option I think, plus a touring being longer should ride good. Bad part is losing the BruteForce fun factor. So it’s going to be a 570 or 850 if I do it. I have done some shopping and I see for 2015 Polaris has a new design for the second seat and different angle on the handgrips. Also the shock under the passenger seat is no longer there. The 570 is more of a basic design, but still looks comfy. I won’t lie I’m struggling with a bit, kinda like trading in a fun car for a mini van lol. What do you guys think, save money on a 570 then add a QSC kit for more pep or just go 850 from the start. I like the looks of both rigs.
Rebates!
I see Polaris is offering rebates on even the mighty 1000………………that absolutely means something better is coming soon. They done this in the past. Anytime they offer rebates on their flagship machine, it means they are trying to reduce inventory for something else. I may be wrong, but I don’t think so. Let’s see what happens. I’m thinking the turbo 1000 will be announced in July. Anyone else have some thoughts?
