My 2017 Polaris Sportsman 850 SP only has 800kms and the front pinion cover is blown right out of the diff.. running stock tires and everything else is stock. I see on the website the these 850's now have a whole front replacement differential, instead of running diff #1333570 the new diff part is now #1333965 but I don't see a recall. Machine is still under warranty will this be covered?

I just picked up my Backcountry Tracks. Here's a video with a little comparison of the Backcountry Tracks to my Tatou 4S tracks. I've had the Tatou's for 9 yrs & they have been excellent tracks. I hope the New Backcountry Tracks give me as much enjoyment.

Before anyone wants to tell I should of bought a sled, understand, I didn't want a sled. And I did not pay list price for the tracks. My dealer gave me one hell of a good deal. :th_smiliebanana2:

I will say this, it's gonna suck to go back to tires in the spring ... :eek

I'll be doing another video next week of the bracket installs & a few other things I've to prepare for running these Backcountry Tracks.

Now, I just have to wait for it to snow here. :sad11: ... :lachtot:

Hi Everyone. Looked through the threads but could not see a clear explanation of how to remove the CV from the shaft in order to replace the boot. I believe it is the inner that is to come apart, while the outer should not be dissembled. Does anyone have experience who can tell me the trick to get the CV off the shaft?

hello everyone im new to this forum or page.

i have a 02 Polaris Trail blazer 250 starts good but then after 10 minutes it would turn off and wont run,but i could still turn it on but wont move until it cool off again, then it would run for couple of minutes.and do the same thing.Please help

I have read that they are known for going bad and being a very common problem. I have a 2000 expedition my accuator works half the time. It’s like it getting hung up and not moving all the way back like it’s supposed to. It’s getting power from the switch it just only moves little bit half the time. Is it just dirty in the inside or maybe needs some lube? Can they be cleaned out?

Was thinking last week or two the engine had a real bad tick on the top end but now I'm almost certain it's clutch noise, or both? At idle it's coming from the clutch ? 26 hours and 450 mIles, upgrading the clutch soon anyhow hopping if it is the clutch that it will be addressed then. I am a throttle junky. just curious if anyone else has noticed excessive ticking coming from either the engine or clutch. Mine is progressively getting worse.

Sent out my block to us chrome which is across the country for me and they need to know what size the factory cylinders are suppose to be , I can’t find this info anywhere and I would prefer not to spend another 75 bucks to ship them a piston

Have a 2013 400 xt with 1360 kms,never use 4x4 but a couple times for hills,out this winter thought better put in 4x4 and on smooth driveway under power in a good turn can here ticking coming from drive axels in front,anyone else experience this and how long will you think they will last with very little 4x4 use,can't believe it could be serious at such low kms and stock tires and only trail rides so far...maybe some sound is normal but this bugs me... Put this on stands in garage can't here anything,2wd or 4wd unless on ground with drive load on wheels...Working on vehicals for many years could always here bad axel on hoist with no load when they were really bad... any info greatly appreciated...

Does yours make any noise at all...

Is some light noise normal... Thanks...

This ATV is suppose to be FI however, it is constantly fouling plugs. It has around 300 hrs on it and mostly stays in garage. I counted 8 fouled plugs since I bought it new in 2007. Air filter is clean. I just added some Sea Foam hoping it will reduce fouling. Yesterday, I drove ATV around yard and at 5k RPMs. When I stopped to unload firewood that I had retrieved, it started missing but then cleared up. I usually wait for ATV to come up to operating temperatures before driving. I have a feeling that I am about ready to change another plug, which is a pain on this model. I am wonder if dealer lied and this is really a carbureted model? It just needs jets corrected??? Any suggestions???? Or, and gas is current!

Anyone near north east Illinois looking for a set of factory wheels and tires off a 16 sportsman X2? New condition, 1 mile on the machine when removed. Make an offer.
