My uncle just bought an 02 660 and is looking to get new tires. I have an 05 on 27 mega meyhems but I needed HD axles and bearings. He doesn’t need the massive tires but I was wondering how 26inch 12 and 10 wide itp XLs would run on stock equipment. Also we ride really hard in all kinds of mud and rock. Thanks

Had my 06 Sportsman 500 EFI on the bench at my local polaris dealer for over 4 weeks and they can’t seem to diagnose a backfire issue.

Unit idles fine but backfires when any throttle applied.

Originally they said it was sensor in the airbox….solved nothing. Then they replaced the injector and MAP sensor grommets….solved nothing.

Now they want to start replacing PDM and ECM? Could either of these cause a backfire issue? I don’t want to dump big money into parts for no reason anymore.

Should they not have a way to bench test or check if they are ok via laptop?

I bought a 2000 Sportsman 500 a few months ago and the OEM headlights and wiring were missing. I bought used headlights to install. Does anyone know the headlight connectors I need? I realize I could buy entire wiring off eBay, but is there a simple connector that will fit? Are the connectors the same for all years/models? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I just did an oil and filter change yesterday and installed a K&N filter as that is what I mainly use in most vehicles. Shortly after the change engine died and locked up. Always only hand tighten and never seen the need to use the nut on the end unless filter was hard to remove. As usual changed oil with recommended 2 quarts. After a minute of engine on to get the oil flowing, oil level was spot on the dipstick.

So went for a ride(under a half hour it went, maybe only 15 minutes) then engine started to die out and locked up. Can smell a rubber like smell afterwards. So checked under quad and there was oil spots. Drain plug was on properly so checked the filter and found it split apart as seen in the picture.

Also attached a picture of my other spare filter so you can see what it should look like and the code that popped up but I didn’t find the code in the service manual I d/l’ed from here.

Any one know what the code is exactly? As the engine seized I am guessing it is that or engine oil related. Haven’t had the chance to take apart yet. Sent an email to K&N to see what there actions will be and if they would cover the damage there product caused.

If not then I am going to have to cover the costs as it is out of warranty and throw rest of truck/atv/outboard filters I have left(K&N) and switch to another brand.

After looking for a set of stock spare wheels and finding none im going to buy an aftermarket set. Going with a basic black steel ITP rim (Delta) and want to be sure these specs will work on my 2016 Grizzly on both front and rear.

12×7
4.0 + 3.0
4/110

I plan running a set of Zillas 26-9-12 front and
26-11-12 rear. I know the stock wheels have different offsets just wanted to be sure this combo will work. Amazon shows these rims will not work but they were the only ones to show that. Every other place shows these rims fit. Thanks in advance

Looking like our plans with another couple are falling thru and my wife and I thought it’d be fun to go up to Hatfield, take the ATV, Toyhauler, etc and have some fun.

Anyone else going and don’t mind a klingon?

If not, can anyone recommend the best RV campsite or area to go? We went once, but my experience is still pretty limited as to where to go.

How we roll
