Hey everyone. My 570 sometimes will stop turning over when it builds up compression and I have to "jog" the key 5 or 6 times to make it finish cranking over. Original battery(2015), topped off with distilled water but still does it occasionally. im thinking of upgrading the battery to something with more CCA. heres a video from youtube of what is happening. Let me know what you guys think.

Recently picked up this 95 xplorer 400 up off Craigslist for $300. It was not running, and had been sitting in a barn for years with a broken pull start. I immediately ordered a pull start rebuild kit off eBay which was very poor quality and broke pretty much right away, but it did get the 4 wheeler to start. So I just bought a new battery and use the electric start, and this engine could not run any more perfect.

Only issue(s) it has: from what I can tell neutral and high beam idiot lights don't work, so I'm assuming all of them don't work which is a little odd.... also when I push the 4x4 button I don't get the red illumination by the button that I should, I hope this doesn't effect 4x4 from engaging? Also for some reason it's missing the front chain, does anyone know where I can buy just the front chain? If I order it from polaris it's not cheap, and I can only find the entire set of 3 chains elsewhere online. Any help is appreciated with these issues, and of course here is some pictures:

I'm sure this has been reviewed to death but I had throw it out there one more time. I finally got to try my new Alpine Flex Plow yesterday and was super impressed. If you've been considering one, do it! My 570 max XT had zero issues with a foot of slushy snow. I even made a few bucks:grin

Hey guys im new here. I have 2011 xmr 800r and a 2011 650 xt.
My wife 650 has a solid tick noise that i have somewhat pin pointed down to the front jug. Seems like the noise is at camshaft speed. I removed primary clutch (stock) thinking that this was where the noise was from orignally but still is there. I have rechecked the valve lash and is set properly at 004 and 006 cold. Also removed chains and inspected guides they are in good shape and threads are 5 showing on tentioners. It seems as the bike warms up the noise fades slightly but is most proment at idle. Add some throttle and it seems to go away. I did noice the rockers have side to side play which when i rock back and for seem to be close to the sound im hearing. I know they need some side to side play just unsure of how much side to side is to much. I know these bike do have some piston slap but i dont think thats the noise im hearing. Any other input of what i can check before i start tearing motor down to see if its a rod knock or something else
Thanks bike has 7100http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/5a92d004...4881806937.mp4

So silly mistake. But has anyone used a stock bore head gasket for a can am 800 on their 840 bbk. Put a new head on my unit and grabbed a head gasket off the shelf just to find out I still have the 840 one on the shelf.....

can anyone tell me the difference of the 850 and the 850 sp? and is it worth the extra $1500? Thanks

I have a Sportsman 500 that sometimes get stuck in low gear. This seems to happen between low and reverse.
