Hey have a question for all you guys that have installed a brp snorkel and rad relocation kit. I’m looking to both but for now I’m ordering 1 of them.
As far as installing what one would be the best to buy first ?
I don’t want to get the rad kit first and find out that I have to take it off to get the snorkel kit in. Or the other way around.
Sorry if this was asked before but I couldn’t find a answer.
Thanks
Ok I think I’ve finally installed every possible hondaline accessory on it that was made lol..and yes I do ride it as well…it was actually covered in mud last weekend after riding about 30 miles of trails. I just clean it up real good after every ride [emoji41]
Howdy friends. For those of you within range of the greater Phoenix AZ area, Sycamore Creek has tons of awesome trails and beautiful desert exploration opportunities. Here is a video of some of the highlights, specifically 4×4 technical stuff in that area from a ride I did in Jan, 2016. The Rancher was fantastic on this ride, and I can’t wait to go back. Don’t be fooled by the video, the uphills and downhills are steeper and "sketchier" than they look on the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPd9oIvfNSY
As the title says which atv would be better for this type of trail riding minus the deep water holes. This video is not me but it resembles the types of trails that are in my neck of the woods. The atvs I’m looking at are the 2016 sportsman 850 sp or the outlander 650 xt.
I recently purchased a 2006 TRX500ES. I was using it to try to pull a tractor out of the mud. Now all gears will shift and change but I have a clunking popping noise that happens from inside the transmission. I removed both the front and the rear drives to make sure it was not drivetrain issues. The noise is not constant. Has anyone else experienced a similar issue and found a solution before I crack the case.
Thanks in Advance.
Anyone have any tricks on compressing the rings into the cylinder. I tried using aluminum flashing but it didn’t work, cracked the sleeve. When I get the new one, is there a trick to this. I bought a 4in ting compressor but I don’t see had I would be able to use it. I bent the oil rings a couple times doing this because of the taper at the end of the sleeve. Also it’s a stock 85mm bore.
My 2015 Honda Foreman Rubicon calls for 80W-90 for front and rear gear oil. To make a long story short I’m interested in using synthetic oil but it only comes in 75W-90 (except Amsoil which is crazy expensive). Can I SAFELY substitute 80W-90 for 75W-90? They all say hypoid gear oil and limited slip in the descriptions. I was looking at the Mobil 1 full synthetic 75W-90 in particular. Also, the manual says the old gear oil should be warm prior to draining. How long should I ride to get it warm since this is separate from oil in the engine?
can i get some opinions on this? it looks like my water pump is leaking from the seal around the water pump housing to me…maybe not the weep hole. If you look in the pic, it is wet above where the weep hole is. I was thinking maybe i could try just replacing that gasket with this one Polaris 5812571 Seal Cover Waterpump | eBay
Has anyone used RTV instead? I had a local non-polaris shop repair this same thing exactly 1 year ago! maybe 700 miles since. ridiculous.
