I recently bought what I think is a 1991 Trail Boss 350L.
It's needs some TLC, so I wanted to confirm with Polaris that I had the right year so I could make sure to order the correct parts.
I phoned them and gave them the 7 digit VIN/Serial number (2543439) and it came back as a 1995 4x4 300!

It looks like a 1991 Trail boss 350 to me and the top end was recently rebuilt with a 350 piston kit, so I'm a little confused.
I ran the numbers on the motor and it's a 350 for sure.

The only thing I can think of is that someone used a 300 frame to rebuild their 350? Is that even possible?

Here's a pic of the atv I bought.

Any suggestions as to what I have would be great and maybe why Polaris thinks it's a totally different atv.

I'm sure this has been discussed before. I just picked up my 2013 maverick x rs, so far I love it but where I live there are a lot of tight trails and I am running 30" wheels, looking at getting power steering but I don't know the advantages or disadvantages of either the 220w or the 400w from super atv. any suggestions?

Bike has 16 hours on it. Yestuday it Would hardly do 55mph and sounded like it wanted to die.

Let it cool down, checked the oil and it was low ?

Pulled out the air filter and there was all my missing engine oil !

And now the bike smokes..

Anyone shed some light on this ?

I got warrenty and i guess ill have to bring it into polaris?

I have a 2004 Outlander. Yesterday I gassed it up, put in a new battery. The machine had been sitting in my garage since last year and the tank was dry. I used some starter fluid to get it to crank and bring fuel to the engine. The machine started and then died. At the same time all electric power was lost. I checked the 4 fuses in the front compartment and they are good. Can this be the starter solenoid? I checked the battery connections and they are fine. I am lost, please help.
Thank you
