I've got a bunch of Polaris (?) wheels I bought from the government, originally ordered by Lockheed Martin(??). Can anybody tell me if these are stock front rims or something else?

Calipers are Frozen!
I was doing some maintenance on my '16 850 xmr (rebuilding the rear shock for the second time, greasing everything, changing diff fluids, new exhaust, brake pads). I went to change my brake pads and all three calipers are frozen. None of the pistons would go back in. I tried using a C-Clamp and opening the bleeders but that didn't work. The bike only has 650 miles on it! Anybody else have this problem yet? Not looking forward to spending $600 on new calipers. The only good thing out of this little episode is I got my RJWC mud series duals installed!
Voltage on speedometer is wrong
Good morning,
I purchased a 2017 Sportsman 570 2 days ago. When reviewing it with the salesperson, I noticed that the voltage displayed on the speedometer was 11.4. I asked him if the battery was not fully charged, he apologized sated they would put it on a charger, and deliver the next day. When I got home last night, it had been delivered, I checked the display and it showed 11.6 volts. I got out my multi meter and found that at the battery and accessory plug it actually had 12.5?
Should I be concerned about this? I know my old sportsman's 500 and 335 would have issues if the voltage was low at the speedo. I want to make sure that the speedo does not control other functions on the new model and would be sending out false low voltage warnings.
Thank you in advance.

Found Little Pin Stator Replacement
I am in the middle of replacing the stator in my 2004 Sportsman 700 non-EFI. I just got the new stator on and wired up when I found this tiny pin that is tapered on one end. It's like 3/8 inches long and I cannot figure out where it came from! It's not the woodruff key. Does anyone know where this pin could have come from??

2002 Sportsman 500 4×4
Hey all,
I recently received a 2002 Polaris Sportsman 500 4x4 and was wondering what I should do as far as maintenance. It has been sitting for about 8-10 years and have been told it was lightly used(was a hunting quad).
This is what I plan on doing.
-New Battery
-Drain Gas / remove tank and clean?
-replace Oil / filter/ air filter
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
