Hey guys and gals. Having a little issue with my 2011 Sportsman 800. I bought new tires last week. 12x9x27’s. Everything fits except for the right front (if you’re looking at the bike). For some reason the right front tire rubs the tie rod end. I pulled the front wheels off, did a realignment, put them back on...same problem. I checked my ball joints, decided they were a little loose, so I changed them this evening. Put the tires back on and that tire is still rubbing. I have about 3/4” clearance on the left tire but the right one is right up against the tie rod. Any suggestions what could be causing the problem?

I just purchased a 2016 polaris sportsman 850xp I ordered a oil change kit with ps-4 oil and I'm wondering whats recommended through polaris for front diff,transmission fluid and rear diff fluid I want to use all polaris brands just making sure I use the correct fluids for each one cause the atv didn't come with owners manual and I know the front diff takes a special fluid as for the trans and rear diff

Ran fine then one morning would not start. Engine turns over fine, gets spark will not fire up. Changed fuel filter and filter, new spark plug, checked all fuel lines...all clear. It will fire up for a short time if I put fuel directly into the carb. What is the probability this Is an electrical problem or some other mechanical issue?

Is this the correct temp light sensor for a 1996 sportsman 500 part number-3085352

Hello all, i am fairly new to the atv world. I recently purchased a 2004 sportman 400 and it needed some work. I have it mostly finished but i have no idea where the frame/engine ground cable connects. If anyone has any idea where this cable goes on this four wheeler I would greatly appreciate it and put you in my prayers. A pic. would be excellent if anyone has one. I know it is located above the water pump but unsure exactly where it is suppose to go, Thanks all.
