Just wanted to say hello to all. I’ve been visiting this site for a few months now and finally joined.
I’ve been amazed at the knowledge shared on this site. I recently bought a 2000 Sportsman 500 RSE. I’ve been going thru it and want to make it run like a top. Right now it won’t get up and go but it does run. I found 2 separate websites that had manuals that I downloaded and……printed. Over 1100 pages of information. As the manuals and opinions here pointed me, I pulled the valve cover off to look at the cam and sure enough the exhaust lobe is wore nearly down to just a circle, no lobe. I need a new cam.:albert:
I bought the ATV from my nephew because he is not mechanically inclined and didn’t want to mess with it. I knew it would need work.
Hope to soak up as much info as you all are willing to release.
God bless America from southern Indiana.
Most of my family calls me..

Hey guys, I’m from the suburbs of Chicago. My current Honda’s are a 2000 Foreman 400 and an 84 ATC 110. Past rides include an 02 400ex, 03 250ex and 07 400ex. I’m looking to add a trx 125 for my nephew in the next few weeks and hopefully a new Rubicon with in a year. I’m also hoping to restore the ATC at some point so I’ll have a thread on that.

Replacing my valves seals and am wondering how I could go about cleaning the exhaust valves. Good amount of carbon build up prior to rebuild. I seen online a guy use a drill and some red scotch bright pad on the stems also should I use carb cleaner or brake cleaner to try and break up some build up in the exhaust ports?

This weekend, my 2012 Grizzly 700 started doing he following: when I turn the key on, the 4×4 servo activates by itself and turns the 4×4 on and a off, sometimes a few times in a row. If I push the button myself, everything works fine.
I bought it new, only has 1450 km on it and stays in the garage year round. Anyone had a similar issue or knows a cure?
I have 2006 sportsman 500 efi x2 and 2007 sportsma 500 efi deluxe.
The x2 has polaris handguards which I like and want the same for the 07 deluxe. I know they will fit, swapped and fit perfect, but polaris shows 2 different #s
2874871-177 which look like exact matches but only for 01-06 excluding x2
2875709-177 for 07-08 sportsman but picture of mounting bracket is not shown
I found #s stamped on the inside of the ones on the x2, some manufactured dates plus 5435476 on r/h side and 5435475 on l/h side
Also on the picture of 2874871-177 the angle bracket for r/h side looks like a mirrored image (for left side )
If anyone has handguards with the same stamped numbers and know what polaris number that would be great
Guy here local is selling a brand new bought in Feb this year Kodiak base model for $4900. 65 year old man and has been barely ridden. Didn’t think it was a bad deal. Any thoughts from you guys that already own one? I appreciate it.
