I have a 2005 Sportsman 500 ATP with no power to the switches or gauges, unless I jump the solenoid,(with the key on)then everything light up and it will turn over. If you turn the key or kill switch off, you need to jump the solenoid again to get power going again.
Has this happened to anyone??
It has a new battery, full voltage!

Has anyone ever heard of this being related to a shorted out stator?

I just rebuilt my 400L from a 97 Xplorer. It ran fine until it ran out of gas. I left it without gas for maybe 2 weeks as I'm 15 and it's a bit of a faf to go downtown with a 10L tank... anyway, I put gas in it and it will only start and run for maybe 3-4 seconds and then die. It will not do this again however. I have to wait a day, the first pull of the rope, it will fire up, then die and will not start again. I need to get this resolved as this ATV will be necessary for removing our dock a few weeks into winter. Also, if I hold the throttle down, it will rev, seem to hit a rev limiter at low rpm. After holding it here it will rev right up to its max rpm. It didn't do this when I got it and was wondering if my mixture could cause this. It seems to bog when I quickly give it throttle which tells me ots a lean condition, however it seems to run fine otherwise. Any answers or suggestions are helpful. Thanks!

2016 sportsman 850sp : I have a 20" 126w LED lightbar to mount on top of my front storage box. I have a relay and small rocker switch but think it would be much cleaner if I can wire it in to the factory hi-beam harness/switch?

If I'm reading the wire diagram correctly, Yellow is hi beam power and brown ground. I would temporarily disconnect the factory pod so when switch on it would only be the bar. Any issue if I was to wire directly, or should I just do the separate switch? The way the bar would mount on top of the front storage box it would provide flashback if the pod turned on anyway.

Hi everyone,

Just bought a 2001Magnum 325 4x4. I'm an old guy but this is my first ATV. Getting harder to climb the hills for hunting and trail work, so I'm now part of the growing ATV crowd.

Looking to purchase new tires for my scrambler 1000. I have stock tires on the machine right now. Looking for any input for the best tire/money for trail riding (Michigan). So far, it appears the Maxxis Big Horn tires are very popular. Any suggestions & thoughts???

Thanks for your time in advance.

OK. I'm not the type that usually gives up, but today I've had it! :th_smiliefrustrated How in the heck do I reach grease fitting number 80? That's the front lower control arm, rear. I circled it in red in my diagram. Also, why on Earth didn't Can Am just put it where I have the green arrow pointing? There is absolutely nothing in the way. The one on the front is on top like that.

Things I've tried:

Wheels are off
Machine is jacked up high
A 90 degree grease gun adapter thing (see image #3).
A long skinny adapter (see picture #2).
Swearing.

How do YOU do it?
