I recently traded for a 96 xplorer 400 4x4. I know I know not the newest and baddest thing out there but it isnt costing me much which makes me happy and its fun to play with. I want to add lights front and rear for night riding and using it to park my boat at night. I also want to add a speaker system something along the lines of this https://www.amazon.com/BOSS-Audio-AT...audio+off+road. I may change the baby battery to an average riding lawnmower battery as well, i dont trust that little thing. The issue is that I cant find the specs on what the stock stator puts out for amps and watts anywhere. I want to make sure that i am within reasonable bounds. Has anyone else done somthing similar? Thanks ahead of time.

Hey guys I've been to Hatfield twice now. Once to ivy branch, stayed at the trailhead cabins and once at rockhouse and stayed at wv mountain rentals ( cabin by the watertank). Looking for lodging recommendations for a different trail system next year. I have a group of 10 all sxs and atv. Must be able to ride to the trailhead and the more secluded the better, not really a fan of campgrounds or hotels. Thanks in advance

I started looking for an ATV to put a plow blade on to do a medium sized residential driveway and transport gear for ice fishing. My father-in-law gave me a 2000 Sportsman 6x6 that he no longer needed. (He has a brand new Kubota UTV and an 01 Sportsman 6x6 too) I have been looking for a plow set-up and have not been able to find anything for the 6x6. I contacted Warn and KFI and both tell me they offer nothing for the 6x6. What is different in the front end from a 4x4 500 and a 6x6 500 that a standard set-up won't work? Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look? I know they are available as I have seen pictures online and my father-in-law has his 6x6 set-up with a blade and winch too but he bought it that way so he doesn't know what went into the prep.

Thanks for the help.

Anyone running 4 inch portals on the high lifter sportsmans? I'm thinking that is my next mod. Post some pictures if you got em

Hello. I'm from Windsor Nova Scotia Canada. Just picked up a 2013 650 outlander max xt. New to me. Bike is mint though surprisingly it has 4500 miles on it.

It's such an incredible machine. I've only ever had an eye for Honda till I laid eyes on this. Miles have me worried a little. I'm a worrier! This is only my second quad. First in 17 years. My last was a Honda 300. A tank. But it beat the crap outta me.

Im pretty handy. No mechanic but I do a lot of work myself. I hope to buy a service manual and get a lifetime out of this beauty. I have a plow conning for it as well for the heck of it.....my other plow is a 1989 Massey Ferguson 2640 4x4. Lol. Kinda so big it's silly.

Anyway. I ramble. Pleased to be a part of this group and looking forward to learning about these amazing machines.

Take care

Hi All! Been lurking for a while and picked up couple Sportsman 570 for the wife and I.
Looking forward to hit the local trails and keep myself more informed through this forums!

I recently purchased the Polaris and have no manual. I would like to replace all the fluids, can anyone
give me some info on what to use. Oil, tranny, differential, brakes.

Thanks to all

My buddy had some mice pack his air box full of cat food. First time he turned it over it sucked the cat food into the engine. Yup time for a new one to the tune of $4500.00 dealer installed. He wants to sell the old one. Cases are good. Dealer removed the head and removed the cam but reinstalled the head with just a few bolts. Cam is in a bag. Looks like maybe the timing gear came off the crank so I don't know if internals are ok or not. It had around 1400 miles on it when the mice attacked. He wants $400.00 for it but won't ship it. It is in Schoolcraft mi. 49087 If interested email me at DSIMMONS5@COPPER.NET
Thanks.

It will idle.... sort of.... but when I rev it up, its stumbles and dies. It has been sittin for a couple years. I pulled the bowl off and gave it a good cleaning. No luck. Does it need a rebuild kit?

2015 bought new with 215 hours on it. Polaris wanted $380 for a whole pump assembly. I ordered a CNT pump off amazon for $59. I unsoldered the connections and
re soldered the new pump in. Primed it 6 times and it fired right up. Power is back. The OEM pump was a Bosch made in China. I hope this will be the end of these issues. To be continued.....
