I’m new to the site and not sure if I’m asking this question in the right area of the forum. I’m looking at buying a HMF slip on exhaust for my 2011 sportsman 500. Is it a good exhaust to have and do I need to do any jetting ? Also I already have a K&N air filter in the bike if that has anything to do with the exhaust.
Honestly guys I have a beaten up Honda. The plastics are beaten up and because I am not the original owner I don’t know what model it is. I have narrowed it down from the:
1992 Honda TRX 250x
or the
2003 Honda TRX 300EX.
But it does not really matter as they use mostly similar parts. This is an awesome bike and want to make it look awesome too. I would love for your input to see your mods on the next modifications:
Front bumper
Rear Grab Bar
Exhaust
New Plastics
New Seat
New Wheels and Tires
I will send a picture later today to show you the state of it. I appreciate your help and thank you guys.
Just curious where different members do their recreational riding. Flat forested trails, low wetland riding, mountain Forest Service trails? Unless I’m looking in the wrong place I don’t see too many photos of the scenery with ATV’s in the foreground and where folks ride. I have the great privilege of mountain trail riding and have only scratched the surface of the area we have available to us. Looking forward to the 2016 riding season.
I deleted the oil injection. Im going to do a 40:1 mix. What size main should i run. Stock is 82.5. Or can i just run the stock main. No power mods at this time.
Hello guys my name is Fernando I am from Miami Fl and just purchased a new to me 2013 renegade 1000 sst g2. First of all the power is insane compared to my old 03 Honda rincon 650. So I bought the bike with a damaged primary cutch and supposedly it had issues with the idle control. A buddy of mine loaned me his primary and a new belt and bike runs great. At first it would idle high after you would rev the engine a little bit in neutral but would idle normal when I first started the engine. after running it for a while it stopped doing it on its own. So… Going to be doing full service this week don’t know where to start aside from the obvious engine oil, diffs and gearcase oil. Saw some grease fittings in the suspension I will grease those also. What do you guys recommend I do and what oils should I use again any input would be greatly appreciate it bike has 42 hours now and about 140 miles.
Trying to loosen up the sand on our beach with a pull behind harrow. Nothing to big and my sportsman 500 efi pulls it fine. My problem is it keeps over heating on me.
I originally was pulling in Low around 3500- 4000 RPM and it over heated, I tried in high gear around the same 3500-4500 RPM thinking the speed would but more air across the rad but again it overheated.

as the title says I just picked it up. Comes pretty loaded but I added a couple things like the complete audio system led bar full front brush guard ram mount dash net interior light. I have a Polaris ranger 900 camo full cab so I’m excited to compare the two. Will keep everyone posted as I know there isn’t much information out there on these machines.
I’m 6’7" so I also did a seat mod to get some additional leg room.
