525s Street Legal

Hello,

I have a 2010 525s and I'm very interestred in making it street legal. I live in Florida, where It's not legal register an Off Highway Use Only vehicle to be street legal. However, there is a company called DirtLegal.com who claims to be able to make it work along with some modifications on my part (blinkers, DOT tires). Has anyone ever heard of this before or know someone who has? I just dont want to get scammed.

Thanks,

Michael Pallos

Polaris 570 Touring, Fuel guage flashing HELP!

1st off...thanks for having me!! I just purchased new to me Polaris ATV for the family!
2016 Polaris Sportsman 570 Touring

I am looking to buy tomorrow another 2014 Polaris Sportsman 570 Touring

The 2014 has a small issue..doesn't effect the bikes function (running wise) but the fuel gauge is flashing on the dash.
I've read a ton about this...Seems like a common problem for the Polaris bikes.
Should i run from this?? or is an easy fix?

I've looked around the interweb and can't seem to locate for sale the fuel sending unit for sale.

Any advice asap.... Supposed to go pick this bike up tomorrow!!

Thanks for your advice in advance!!

Pre-oiling a machine that hasn’t been started in a year

Have an '11 Griz 700 that hasn't been started in a year due to a dead batt. I'm about to put a new one in and crank her up.


Should I do anything to the engine to prep it for running after sitting for so long? I'm thinking in terms of pre-oiling parts that the oil would have long fallen away from. Would it be a stupid idea to use a turkey baster and put some engine oil into the spark plug hole? Crank it a couple times, replace the plug and then try to start it?


I'm afraid of rubbing metal parts together during the start before the oil pump gets everything lubed.

2005 Scrambler 500 4×4

The stock scrambler has to size tires the rear tires a 22" tall tire The front is a 23" tall Does anyone know how to make it so I can run one height tire I would like to call to 24 may be 25" tires but I'm having difficulties finding matches with only 10inch rims Does anyone have an idea on maybe changing Sprocket sizes So I can run one height car And also are there any rim selections out there That I could get away from the 10" tall rim ? It's kind of hard to find Tires That will work in the factory configuration. Other than going OEM Thanks for the help!
