Two questions on ’17 Sporty 850 SP

1) What rim and bolt pattern do I want for a 14" rim, to keep the stock size, but give it a 2" offset per rim, for a 4" wider stance? I did that on my 570 and the wider stance was very nice in the turns, giving it a more planted and less "tippy" feeling in fast turns... Would new offset rims be the best way to do this, or should I get spacers? I don't need fancy rims, I don't care about bling... they get all scratched and banged up anyways... Just want the quad to be a bit wider at the wheels and more stable at higher speeds...

2) How does one slow down the EPS at speed? I love the power steering when stopped or doing slow technical stuff, but when you are ripping down an open trail at 45mph+ the EPS makes the bike very sensitive and twitchy. Being electronic, I would have expected that the ECU would keep the amount of EPS proportional to the speed, but it doesn't feel that way... Is there a workaround? One thing I have considered is finding a way to fit a steering damper, like you would use on a street bike... Thoughts?

Ranger XP 700 EFI

Went to start my UTV after sitting a while, runs rough, wont idle, suspect bad fuel and maybe condensation in fuel. Drained tank, added startron and fresh fuel. Can I just keep running it through until it cleans itself out with out causing damage? Any other additive suggestions to speed up process?? Just had full service 6 months ago...

Polaris Magnum 325

Can anyone tell me if the oil cooler line fittings on my Magnum 325 are Standard or Metric thread, I need to replace them and it makes a difference as to which vendor i go to?

Looking at CST Wild Thang in 28″ Scrambler 850

I am looking at upgrading my tires.


I have 26x9 and 26x11 Bearclaw HTR for the last three years. I am starting to do deeper mudding now.



I am looking at CST Wild Thang 28x9 and 28x11. They will be on my 14 inch rim which is 5x2 offset.



I should be able to run there no problem correct? I was wondering if there will be wobble at high speeds? On hardback will I be limited?



ME this past weekend lol.....I need waders......

99 Sportsman 500 no spark

So to test my no spark condition, I have disconnected the kill switch wire (Black from cdi), tested 98.1 ohms and no grounds on pulse coil, stator tested about 13.8 ohms (red to black/red if I remember correctly), no grounds on stator. Stator resistance seems low, should I go ahead and plan on pulling it? IGN coil to ground tested .02 ohms.... have not yet tested primary and secondaries on ign coil. What other steps can I check and are there and ignition system fuses?
