anything going on this month ? RND , one last ride before the end of the month ? 1 dayer ? badlands , cliffs ? rocky glenn ? Monroe ? I know your getting old and falling apart , but you might have one more good ride in ya ? Tomek and Marlin too !

I was moving my 850sp around the other day getting things ready for a trip next weekend and I left the quad on my trailer over night to be transported with me to work in the morning and I had left the parking brake on.

The next morning i went to move it off the trailer at the shop and noticed the brake lever felt kinda squishy. Normally I can’t squeeze it to the bar, but it squeezed right down to the bar, I assumed it was because i left the parking brake engaged and stretched the lines (I realized that doesn’t make any sense, polaris uses nice stainless lines). Sure enough after a couple minutes the brakes went back to normal, very very stiff brake lever.

Since then though, I noticed that at random the brakes will get squishy and go to the bar, then I’ll release them and try again and they’ll be rock solid again. I consulted a good friend of mine who’s been riding and maintaining Polaris sleds and ATV’s his entire 34 years of existence, he seems to feel it’s a check valve in the master cylinder not doing it’s job all the time. He said he had a similar experience once on his father 2012 850XP, but it cleared up and they never pursued it.

There’s no sign of leaks and the reservoir appears to be full, has anyone else ever experienced this?

Hey guys, my wife and I each have hand guns, mine is a Taurus .40 and hers is a Beretta .45. we only use these at the range and are really new to this. I have found some ammo that has aluminum cases… do I want that? I have also heard that you want FMJ ammo. Also I found a 40 pack of .40 at our local wally world for around $15-$18. Would these be ok for just target practice?

Thank you for allowing me to ask this question. I know there are a lot over VERY experienced ATV/Quad/etc. folks in this forum, and I am certainly not one of them .

So, we have a place we share with some friends, down on the beach in Puerto Penasco, Mexico. We also store our 2 quads down there, and never bring them back to the States.

Our last trip down, my nephew got sideways screwing around on the our 2005 Honda Rancher (electric shift/4×4) and crashed it into our block garage.

By the Grace of God, he was not seriously hurt, however the bike took a beating, flipped, etc. The main damage was to the entire front suspension, frame, etc. It’s completely un-drivable.

So, my question is: "What would be a reasonable ‘re-sell" value for basically parts??

Meaning, a non-drivable Honda Rancher with good electronics, engine, transmission, tires, cosmetics, etc, etc. Everything other than basically a trashed front frame?

So much appreciate your responses. — And, keep in mind this will be selling to either Americans down in Mexico, or to locals/Mexicans down there.

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I heard some rumors about new regulations in Europe from 1/1/2017. The story is the following:

I visited the local dealer in Cyprus for Can Am to do some questions and I left a little confused. He told me that the regulation are changed and that from 1/1/2017 none off road vehicle will be able to registered as road legal. He told me also that all companies may make changes at the future to make possible the registration again but that will take 2 to 3 years or more.
Can you please delight me about this.
What is true and what is not?
What companies are planning for those changes?
My purpose to buy one, of course is off road but I want to be able to drive it at my area, or on the way to trails.

What is T3 regulation that the off road must change to that version to be able to register for the road?

I’m planning to buy an Renegade X xc but next year and I want to know a few things.

One other thing, the 570cc x Xc is enough for just having fun?

Last question, I know that Renegade is for one, but I have seen a lot videos on youtube with two on. I wanted to know if for a relaxed ride I can take a second person on with total 130kg both.

Any advice would be great.

Hi
Hi was looking on line and maybe i missed it but is there any key changes to the Foreman line up for 2017? I saw a few changes to the Rubicon line up.

Second question when Honda changed the Foreman a few years ago with its current design was the ride much improved with the single shock? Is it much more comfortable?

There are a lot of exhaust threads on this forum, but I can’t find a post that answers this specifically…

Are there any aftermarket "full" systems that are under 96db and provide a worth while performance increase?

I am not a sound guy, and don’t really care about the note.

I am looking to add as much "bolt on" trail performance as possible.

I will be adding a clutch kit that favors low end acceleration performance even if I lose top end speed (I don’t need to go quite 85 mph on the trail anyway)

I am thinking of a PCV plus autotune and a full exhaust (but needs to be trail legal in Wisconsin. (96 decibels when measured on the “A” scale)

I appreciate any sugesstions

I have a 02 polaris sportsman 700 twin and I want to rad relocate it but can’t find a kit for my year model does anyone know if other year models are compatible because the lowest year model I can find is 05 if there isn’t does anyone know how to do it yourself

The Wife has shot down the idea of getting a side by side, so thinking of trading in my wheeler for a 2 up. My question is how is the handling, will I still be able to power slide around corners or will it feel like driving a tank? Any other differences? Is it smoother trail riding like a sxs, meaning when I ride in side by sides you really don’t feel the bumps, but on my atv it seems to hit dips in the road pretty hard. How about maintenance, is it any different or easier to clutch them (get to the clutch anyway)? It is so much more for one vs a 1 up, just want to make sure it is worth it… Note where I ride it is legal for 1 passenger on a 1 up machine and realistically I ride alone about 70% of the time.

Thanks in advance for you advice..

Hello,

I’m rebuilding the primary clutch from an ’06 Trail Boss 330 & have a few questions:

1/ Sheave machining – What is the correct angle for the sheave faces & the max. limit for machining?

2/ Spider button to tower clearance?

3/ Belt to sheave clearance?

Thanks in advance,

Glen
