I have a 2010 Polaris Sportsman 500 HO. The machine has approximately 750miles / 100Hours. The machine seems to have a ticking sound when reved up and when riding at higher RPMs. Is this the Starter Bendix or Valve Adjustment? I have hear both of these are common issues with these machines. Please Help. Thank you.

I have a 2006 sportsman 500. This is my first time working on these type of clutches and could use some help. I am assuming that I don't have ebs. I have included a picture if someone could verify that. On the picture that I have attached could someone tell me if that Is a bearing or is it supposed to stay stationary. The piece does not move at all on the sheave.

Good Morning. I need someone to help me with a Valve Adjustment on my 2010 Polaris Sportsman 500 HO. I have been told its very easy. I am nervous i am going to mess up something. I am willing to pay someone for their time and assistance with this. I am located in Bucks County, PA 19055. Can someone help me please? Thank you.

Hey guys, just thought I'd share a project of mine with ya since it's a one of a kind from what I've researched.

Renegades love to overheat when submersed in mud, and I was determined to come up with a custom rad relocate as I don't care for aftermarket options and I'm capable of building my own. (I'm an ambitious welding engineering student)

Initially I built the box and brackets and it held up to any abuse at the time. (Picture 1)

After upgrading to 30" silverback mt2's from bald 27" swamp lites, the ride got significantly rougher. The brackets couldn't handle the shaking of the rad, so I fabricated a bumper to help soak up some of the vibration. (Picture 2)

I won't get into specifics unless someone asks, as it was a rather lengthy process. This post was just for fun, but don't hesitate to ask questions!

After having a wreck on my old 330 Trail Boss, and seeing a friend get rear ended by his own son, I've decided bumpers (front & rear) although pricey for two vehicles would be a smart move.

Seen (on line) the OEM tubing model (which through experience) I know work well considering how light the construction is, I've seen others.

I like the look of the Warn model


Any other suggestions? Thanks
Mike
