Hello. I need some advice. My machine suddenly started draining her battery after I shut her down.
On my screen it says"over v" and runs numbers I assume are voltage readings.
My screen flashes if I rev it up but when I let her idle, no flashing screen and things look normal. It always idles and revs up just fine.
I called dealer and first thing he said was voltage regulator. I ordered new battery and regulator installed both and the quad still has the same problem. Of course my warranty ran out just before the problem started I do have aftermarket lights hooked up to the battery but other than that everything stock.
I ran into some of the issues on other
forums 1000 XP 1000 side-by-side having a faulty regulator I ordered it upgraded one and like I said the same problem. Has anybody else had this issue?

Just picked up a beautiful new 2000 Trail Boss 325 - I love this ATV! Time to give it some TLC. I'm sure this has been beat to death on this forum, but I'm new to it. Polaris is kind of vague about what weight to use, my local quad guy says any weight you want, doesn't recommend synths for older quads that haven't been using them before. Since I don't know this machine's history, I'll probably just use a quality dino oil. It's not going to get ridden real hard, and it shouldn't see any real temperature extremes. What do you all recommend for oil weights on this guy? I picked up a K&N oil filter, a good choice? Thanks in advance for any advice.

Looking to get something together for the Spring. Anyone out there from Montana or want to do some riding in Montan?

Hi there. I have a 2006 sportsman 500HO. Am I to assume that the little 1/4" tube on the bottom of the engine beside the drain plug is a crank breather? I moved my quad out of the garage the other day and found about a cup of oil all over the garage floor. after investigating found that when I shut my quad off after riding the oil drains down this tube. happens all the time and at different oil levels in the oil tank so the oil isn't overfull. any other things that may contribute to this happening? any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I own two can ams now. Just rebuild a rally for my daughter but I'm having a hard time getting the carb set right.

Just sharing my experience with the Cabela’s Red universal 50” plow I purchased during this Black Friday. Had it shipped to my house for $200 with free overnight delivery included. 😲😁

The assembly directions were terrible, diagram and step by step was a joke but after a few curse words I had it together in a few. Weighs about 125lb total, so adding weight to the rear via sand bucket or bag helps with traction.

Plowing snow is breeze with this, no more snow blowing and/or shovels by hand.

Upload photos of your setup and what like/dislike about it 👍🏻👎🏻

Just curious about the different types of grease that you might use on your machine for examples, Suspension grease points, CV joints, Wheel bearings, Propeller shafts etc.

I see Can Am advertises only one type of grease for the entire machine XPS suspension. In the 2017 operators manual that came with my Outlander 570 they recommend A Castrol brand meant for CV joints but checking the Castrol official web there is no mention of a CV joint grease.
What do you guys like to use for DIY maintenance?

I normally use Shell Rotella. What do you guys think of this? It gets pretty good reviews. Hmmm.
