So i have been trying to get my 2000 foreman 450es running, i have gotten it to run and stay running on reserve. i can take the fuel line off and gas will flow freely on reserve but not in the on position. any ideas? also does anyone else think that the petcock system on the fuel take is poorly engineered? TIA

Anyone has one for sale?

I have an issue with my rear upper outside A Arm bushings (at least I hope it is only the bushing). I didn’t realize when I took my old tires off and just went to install my new kenda bear claw HTR’s that after installing them and torquing down the lug nuts that my rear wheels move from side to side so I thought it was a bad bearing and took the wheel off but when i push back and forth on the brake rotor I can see the upper outside a arm bolt moving back and forth in the hole. I tried to tighten it but it was already very tight. This was going to be the first weekend i was going to be able to use it since i bought it 2 months ago. At the top of the wheels I would say I have around 1/4" of play.
Does this sound like a bushing problem or is it that weld a washer to the outside of the a arm fix I have read about?
Would I do any severe damage to the quad if I used it anyway this weekend and changed the bushings when I got home?

I currently have 26 act stock tires. I really want the 27 inch bighorns. I do not want to add a lift because I don’t want to increase my Center of gravity on hills too much. I heard the bighorns run big and can be actually larger than 27in.

Should i just get the 26 inch bighorns or do you think i can fit 27s without a clearance issue and effecting its performance on inclines? I dont ride mud and mostly ride hard pack trails and rocky hilly terrain.

If interested please give me a call. Thanks

Tried finding screw to tighten the headlight switch on 2015 850 but can’t find it. Do I have to take the switch apart? Spins relly easy and is annoying when pressing reverse override.

Thanks

Hi All,

First time posting to this group. Placed an order for a 2017 XMR a few weeks ago. Was thinking about getting the rear seat, but not sure it will fit. Salesmen wouldn’t say yes, he’s not sure if any changes were made to the 2017 model regarding the seat mounting. I could wait for the bike, but want to add it into the financing. Does anyone know of someone with a 2017 XMR 1k with a seat mounted?

Thanks to all who post here, really helped in my decision to buy the XMR. Can’t wait to post some pics.

My 2016 outlander 570 L has barely over 100 miles and the shocks are already squeaking. Anything i can do to help them? Also my fiance rides with me most of the time. Should i tighten the shocks up? just rear or both?
Thanks for any help!

Good after-morning folks!

I am certain that others have experienced this before, however it is certainly a first for me. I am cruising a 2003 Polaris Sportsman 700 V-Twin 4×4.

I purchased a new battery for my quad as it wouldn’t hold a charge, (got it tested and it had dead cells). Shortly after that… the same thing happened to the replacement battery. Figured it could have been a bunk battery. Got it replaced by shop under warranty. Replacement battery did the same shortly after that. Finally came to the conclusion that something else was the issue. Heard that it could be the Voltage Regulator?? Does this seem right?

I don’t have a lot of money to throw around and I want to make the best decision possible. Hunting season is coming up and the quad has been a proven tool for me during this time. I only have one wing and can be trying at times to lug animals around through the bush lol. I mean it’s doable… just a bit of a challenge.

They are asking $100+ American for said voltage regulator then the cost of the battery.
