Well the XMR is going to cost me some mi way again lol. Me and a buddy had the day off today so we decided to go ride. Went looking for mud and found some. Deep and thick. Everytime I got completely stuck I would get a bad grinding noise. Watched some videos that my friend took of me and the grinding only happened whenever one of the front wheels stopped turning. I have power to all wheels and no issues or noises, until I bury it. If I am very easy on the throttle I can see all the wheels moving but if I hit it to hard while stuck one wheel stops spinning and I get a nasty grinding noise. I believe it's the visco because 4x4 climbing some steep hills and over obstacles I do not get any weird noises or problems. Everything runs fine with nothing strange that I noticed.

I am thinking of getting a torq locker and just taking the visco right out. Anyone have experience with these. I know a lot of people use them mudding. How are they climbing rocky hills or anything you may have to turn on while in 4x4. If you have one. How do you like it and what about it do you not like?

The question was asked but perhaps never answered - what size is the flywheel nut (part number 3083905) - for those who want to know, it is 16 x 1.5 mm RH thread with a 22 mm hex and appx. 6 mm in thickness - which means the threads on the crankshaft are also 16 x 1.5 mm also.

This nut is used on the following Polaris models:

I bought a 2003 Traxter XT 500cc 4 wheel drive new and still have it. I use it all the time around the farm. I live near Nashville, TN but have some farm land and wooded area in Pelham, TN. Hope to learn more about working on the engine, etc.

I'm going to look at a couple machines on Thursday and just wanted to get a few opinions on value for the money. They're both 850 touring models, one is a brand new 2018 for $9200 and the other is a factory demo 2017 with 53 miles on it for $8500. I was told the only difference between the two model years is the color. The 2017 doesn't have any warranty left either. So would I just be spending $700 for six months warranty? Is the 2017 a decent buy? I would have to pay tax on either one too.

Hello All! I have a 2010 Trailblazer 330 that seems to have some weird electrical issues. I have just put in a new battery and voltage regulator about three weeks ago. We used the quad once and then it sat for two weeks. When I went out to start it, the battery was basically dead. I used the pull start and it fired up. I noticed that if I turned on the headlight or the brake light it would shut down. If I left those items off, it would run but it wouldn't rev up very high. I pulled the battery out to recharged it and for some reason the battery will go from 13.0 volts to 8.5 volts over night just sitting on a table. When I first recharged the battery I thought I should do a amp draw test on the system. When I hooked everything up like it I was supposed to, it was showing a 0.416 mA draw. I checked the fuses and nothing changed. I then disconnected the RPM limiter and the draw went down to 0.237 mA which is still a little high. I plugged the RPM limiter back in and then unplugged the voltage regulator and the draw went to 0.000. My question is, can a voltage regulator draw power from the battery? When the quad is running it's putting out 14.8 volts to the battery which should be fine. I really don't know where to go from here with this.

Any info would be very helpful.

Hey,
So my Polaris 700 ATV is not starting, I was driving it one day and i turned it off, then next i tried to start it a few minutes later it just clicked, anyone got any ideas?

Hi my name is Fred. I ride a 2015 Maverick. Have ridden more than 8,000 miles in less than 2 years. Do all my own work on it. I am 66 years young and enjoy learning how to maintain my ride

Hello all. Joining the ATV world again after another break. First when I was a kid had a Honda something or other quad, then as a teenager a bayou 400, then as a 30’s year old early mid life crisis purchase got a 2009 RZR s and added a ridiculous amount of money which was later sold for a new kitchen at the cottage for a substantial loss. Now older and debatable about being wiser... thought I would give it a go again. After begging the wife and son for a Ranger XP 1000, we ended up with a 2018 sportsman touring 570 sp my son just HAD to have and a mother who just HAD to let him have it. So working on next year for the big XP! Anyways. Good to be back to teach my son how to be prepared and respect the machines that can be so much fun but need respect themselves. Will be looking for advice on a handful of upgrades to come and rides up here in central Ontario... Muskoka to be more exact and may one day share the same trail as some in here. :grin
