I have a 2000 sportsman 500 and my charging system is giving me fits. I replaced the stator and regulator last week due to it would only charge for about 15 minutes or so then stop and start again after a few min but the charging would get less the longer it ran. So I replace the stator and regulator last week and noticed it was doing same thing as the other set would do. Plus once it got warmed up good and you killed it the unit would not restart till the next day so I put the old stator on it with the new regulator and it ran great no mater how much you ran it it would restart but it still only would charge for a little while then stop and start charging again. Just like the other one. So went ahead and road it over the weekend and melted my regulator. Any ideal on what's going on with it ???

New to 4 wheeling at 51
Been bit by the bug! Bought a previously owned Sportsman 800. Excited to learn and experience as much as I can out there on the trails. What are some mods that I may want to consider as I am just starting out?
Bumper Strength Question
I will soon be taking delivery of an Outlander MAX XT 570 that will have the factory installed front and rear bumpers. Are the bumpers strong enough to use as tie down points while it is loaded on the ATV trailer?

2014 XMR 1000 frame
Hey all, I have a 2014 XMR 1000 and my frame is bad/twisted. I am wondering what other frames are the same as mine? Any help would be great as I am new to the can am world. thanks!
Wheel specs?
Can someone give me the wheel specs on the 2015 Sportsman 1000 XP? Looking to buy another of wheels and need the factory specs of the front and rear.
Clutch cleaning or replacement
I bought this atv and the deeper I dig the worse it gets. I am at a standstill now and getting ready to start putting everything back together but these clutches are a complete mess. The previous owner had the atv set up for mudding and evidently had sunk it or got water in the clutch box. I have tried brake cleaner, drawn dishwashing detergent, purple power, and aluminum wheel cleaner to no avail. Just want some expert eyes to look at them and see if anyone has any ideas on whether I should try and rebuild these of look on ebay for some suitable replacements. I did remove a what appeared to be a clutch kit spring and replaced it with a stock spring on the primary clutch the weights appear to be aftermarket as well. See attached pics. Tia
Need Help-Am Stumped
This is a long post but is a peculiar problem.
Machine is a 2015 Polaris Ace 570 purchased with 0 miles as new in September 2018. It now has less than 300 total miles on it. Used a couple of weeks in November around my Deer camp, and mostly for plowing snow, but, I am careful plowing, no heavy pushing, no hitting the bank, etc.,
1. First Happening--Machines starts and runs, then motor shuts off as if the ignition is being shut off-let sit for a minute and it will start and run again--No pattern as to when this happens, can go weeks without a problem, then happens again.
2. Machine not running-turn key on, will get N light and seatbelt light on dash but starter will not turn, winch will not work no headlights in light position on ignition switch either--keep trying turning ignition off and on--eventually get full electrical, and machine will start and keep running--no pattern to when this happens either.
3. After shutting off after running fine, turn ignition switch to start and starter engages and cranks and cranks but motor will not start---let machine sit for indeterminate mount of time, turn key, starter engages and motor runs.
I had the machine to my dealer a while ago when the winch quit. Started it fine, took it off the trailer, parked it on their lot and when the mechanic went to get it, he had problem #3 but after sitting for a short time it started so they did not follow up. They re-did some of the winch wiring connections and when it worked fine they figured they had the problem fixed.
The other day it acted up again so back to the dealer. Went out to garage, machine started right up, loaded it on the trailer, drove 30 miles to dealer. When I was going to take it off the trailer, problem #2, OK tried turning ignition switch of and on repeatedly, all of a sudden, Problem #3, starter cranking, engine would not start, so they unloaded it with a forklift. After sitting for a while the machine started and they got it in the shop.
The mechanic has been running the machine around their yard for two days and it has been starting and running fine. Their story is "Can't fix it if it's not Broke". I told the mechanic that I think it is an electrical problem, probably in the electrical control box, or something like that, but he said in their diagnostics the computer did not throw any codes. I have to rely on this machine especially for plowing snow, but am getting frustrated. I traded in a tired 2010 Sportsman on this that I never had a problem with, am sorry I bought this for reliability.
Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Lou
Is there such a person as a Polaris Rep, etc., or is that a peeing in the wind sort of thing?
