I'm looking for one that has a back rest on it. One that fits using the anchor points on the rack, not one that uses ubolts or anything.. What are my options?

Hey guys
Just bought a used 2008 Polaris sportsman 800 efi touring.
Brought it out to the trails today. Rode for about 15 minutes and noticed a bunch of steam coming from it. Fan was on and display flashing hot.
I have a few ideas but wondering if you guys could point me in the right direction.
1.thermostat stuck? Coolant was hot at radiator cap so must be flowing right? Also seen a stream coming from the little hole when I re filled.
2. Blown head gasket? I don't think it is this as there are no bubbles and no power loss at all.
3. Air in the system? This is what I'm leaning towards.
Please help

I have a 550 ds that sat in my shed for about a year. The battery was dead and being dumb I attempted to jump start it. It turned over a few times then started clicking then stopped. I bought a new battery because the old one was bad. I put it in and I push the start button and my solenoid next to the battery just clicks once everytime I push the start button. I have read a few people are having the same problem after jumping their quad but no one has had a answer yet. Please help.

Hey everyone,
I had a busy day today installing Rick's frame braces and front and rear knuckles on the 2018. It's a big job. But, just like everything else Rick makes, it's absolutely flawless and perfect. My bike has 1.2 miles on it. Been working on it for a month. I have to align it still and then I can finally ride it!

Thanks,
Tom

Hey guys. Just bought an 09 renegade a while ago and it did not come with a tool kit. Can any one give me the list of what is in it. Thanks in advance.

Just installed my Hipers, feeling damn good about my ride, came off a 6' high jump a little crooked, landed right rear first and the rest can be seen in the pic.
Threw her in AWD, drove her out of the woods to a local shop and luckily they had one in stock.
I carry 95% of all tools needed, but shop lended me a few and I along with my buddy had her back up and on the trails in 20 mins.
Anyone ever run a "Slasher" axle?Attachment 92601

Hey all,

I was recently gifted a 1999 polaris sportsman 500. The thing was it wouldn't start. After installing a new battery, stator carb, plug, and airfilter the thing runs like a top.

When I was out on a bike trip we were driving on logging roads - nothing serious, when we stopped to look at a map we shut down the bikes and then I noticed the problem. The bike turns over with no issues when I pull start it however, there is no electricity at all whether it be starter to any lights when I turn the key.

The battery is full power, the winch still gets power, and I tightened the connections. Every single connection I can find I have contact cleaner sprayed.

All resistances from charging coil and stator are within reasonable levels.

The battery recieves ~5v when bike is at idle.

The key kills the engine if turned off. When engine is running the starter will engage if switch is pushed. Lights flicker slightly.

This seems to be a connection issue somewhere but I am lost

Can anybody please help with my frustrations???

Thanks,

Tyler

I searched but couldnt find it so I'm asking... could anyone post a copy of their target A/F ratio table for an 800 outlander? I know that dj says the cruise range is suggested to be 13.7-14.0 and other ranges 12.8-13.4. But seeing the table and viewing the values at different throttle % and rpms would be great.

thanks in advance for anyone who can post one...
