Tire Questions

I got a 2010 Sportsman 550Xp and looking to get a set of new tires for it. Anybody have any knowledge of how big of tire I could go without doing any suspension changes? I just wanna slap them on my stock 14" rims and go.

Also anybody want to give some recommendations on a good snow /mud tire with deep treads without alot of knobbie feeling on the roads that have good life spans

Dukes of Hazard fans will love this General Lee themed Polaris RZR. From the big “01” on the doors to the confederate flag graphic on the roof, this builder worked as many elements of the original General Lee into this build as possible and we think it’s a great way to pay homage to the […] more

Help needed bigtime

Hi everyone.. I got a 2010 Sportsman 550XP EFI and Im getting a trouble code of 520193-7 which Im told is the IAC circuit. I checked for bare/broken wires and tested the IAC with ohm meter and all checked out good. I am also having an issue with starting the bike, single click and nothing else, if I use a screwdriver across the solenoid itll start, and also sometimes just immeadiately shuting off, usually after romping on it a little and then letting off, it's like all power is taken away NOW. Shuts off very very quickly. Has anyone ran into the issue/code and does anyone know if a bad battery would create these issues, including the IAC code.

P.S. It's the original battery in bike..

Thanks in advance,

Bob

2002 Polaris Xplorer 250 won’t start

I recently purchased a 2002 Polaris Xplorer 250 4x4. It does not start and I have been trying to get it to start. Everything electrical is working great and I have a good spark. Also, fuel is being delivered and I took the carb out and cleaned it well. Today I did a compression test and only turned up 30 psi and I know this is way too low. And its not my gauge because I tested the gauge on my lawnmower and it turned up over 100. I took the valve cover off and the head gasket seems to be OK. I just can't figure out where I am losing compression and what the best way would be to get enough compression to start it up. Any help or recommendations are greatly appreciated.

Newbie saying hi and need help

Long story short...my girlfriend put her 99 scrambler 400 4x4 into a puddle (pond) today. We towed it home and pulled off the filter, carb, air tube on the lower left side and spark plug. We turned it over a bunch to get some water out but not sure where to go from here. I'm mechanically inclind and will be trying to get it going my self but I know nothing about 2 strokes. Motorcycles and cars yes. Need detailed help. More info the better.
Thanks in advance
BTW new to quading...the both of us and have really been enjoying it. Except today!!

Lower Steering Bushing Replacement??

My project is getting newer one part at a time. I need to replace the lower steering bushing and hope someone can give me some tips. Does anyone know what needs to be done to remove the old bushing and install the new one? There is a large bolt at the bottom of the steering shaft that will need to be removed. Once that is loose will the steering shaft slide up a few inches to replace the bushing? I appreciate any info that will keep me from wasting time. Thanks.

2017 Sportsman 1000

Hello everybody, I am just sending this out there to see if anyone has done any mods to the muffler on the new sportsman 1000. I am not sure if the muffler on the sportsman is a catalytic muffler like the RZR, and if so has anybody gutted it??? I have gutted a RZR turbo muffler and I noticed a pretty fair increase in power. I would like to know if anyone has done it before I do it:devil
