Hey Everyone,

I recently bought a rear seat from the ATV superstore and it got it with heated grips. I've decided this would be a good opportunity to wire in front hand warmers and a thumb warmer too. I'm going to get the Polaris ones so that they will use the stock knockouts on the pod and won't need to glue on the grips. My question is what is the best way to wire this. Should I run all three into the same 12v off the accessory plug or would this be too much juice for one circuit. I've read the OEM ones are real quick and easy and just tap into the accessory plug. Or should I tap into power for the passenger grips elsewhere?

Thanks in Advance,

-Steve

Why won't this display work on a Sportsman 570 EPS but will work on 570SP? What's the difference between the two? Thanks in advance for your replies.

I just ordered some 27x9x14 itp mud light xtr's for my outlander xmr as a trail tire, it had the 30x9x14 silverbacks on it but I really didn't want those as a trail tire ,the problem is that the 27 itp's look really small next to the silverbacks and didn't know if the itp would grow any at all once mounted ? I hope they do anything would help

Hello everyone. Hoping to get some advice. Just picked up a non running 2002 Quest 500. In pretty good shape visually. Hasn’t run in a while. Prior owner said it had no spark. He had the ECM tested and it passed, also replaced coil. Started looking things over at home, and there are a few random wires cut or spliced here and there. Look to be spliced wires to run the fan and by pass the neutral safety ( jumped wire on brake lever). Also red and black by the air box no connected to anything but taped up. Put a proper tester on the ignition coil and I do get a good blue spark. I cant tell really how strong, asI never saw this in running mode, for the size (500cc) maybe should be stronger, but it is consistent and blue not orange. Spark also occurs with actual properly gapped plug. Getting good compression. I dont have the actual number as my gauge wont fit the hole. Hand tested and have pulsing reasonable preasure at the head. Also has suction in the intake. I didn’t know how bad the carb was so when it didn’t fire with the carb on, I removed and tried to fir by misting gas/starting fluid straight into the intake port. So I have spark , compression and fuel. But not firing. After cranking, the plug is wet, leading me to think the plug spark might be week under compression. OK so that’s the issue. Any suggestions were to start ? Also , looked everywere for an actual paper manual and cant find one. I have seen some “downloads” available on dubious looking sights, but and reluctant to register and provide a credit card number, so if anyone has a good link for a manual, or at least a scan of the wiring diagram, that would be great. Love to ride, and get this going, any and all help greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I recently purchased a 2002 Sportsman 500 HO 4x4 with 6000 miles that had been sitting for a long time. I replaced everything fuel related (carb, filter, pump, lines) and flushed tank due to gas turning into varnish :). It starts and idles fairly smoothly and I can slowly advance throttle to about half way. Above that, it spits, sputters and backfires through the carb. Any ideas of what I should check and/or replace? Also, Should the timing be set to TDC or should it be advanced/retarded?

Hello,
First post here, but I was wondering if anyone got the first 10 hour service done recently here in Canada. Just got a new 2017 Outlander 450 in November, and I never heard about the 10 hour service until today (Bike has 25 hours on it), and I am bringing it over to the dealer tomorrow to get the power steering recall temp. fix, and I would like to get the 10 hour service (Oil change and such) done there since it has a 5 year warranty and I don't know what they would say if I were to do it myself. I heard it can cost a pretty penny, but I never really found much on it around here.

Thanks.
