800 dies after going for a ride
hey everyone. so i took my 2009 800 outlander for a ride this afternoon fairly warm 23 celsius , went a couple miles back and forth with with lots of stops chainsawing fallen trees and on my way back at low speed it seems to stutter a bit then then died shortly after. tried restarting but acted like a dead battery till i put it back in park then started up just fine and away i went. got back to the house and checked that my fan was working and it was. just needing some ideas as where to start looking or what could cause this problem. it also quits when cold for the first 2 minutes.
Free 2001 polaris sportsman 500. Need help
So recently i was given a 2001 polaris sportsman 500 by family. It wasnt taken care of at all and needs work. Right off the bat it needs rear cv boots, it needs a battery, he said they were starting it with a car battery and it ruined the starter and selenoid. The pull start wont go back in. Its been sitting since last summer. The gear shift will not go into ANY gear while its not running so idk if it needs to be running and the handle bars feel loose like you can jiggle them all around. The front axles pop when you turn the tires while rolling and the front brakes dont seem to work. I know it sounds and seems like alot but ive always wanted a 4 wheeler and this one was free. I know its not locked up because i can turn it by hand. Can somebody please help me on what i should do as a starting point, maybe websites to get the parts cheap, things that need to be done and maybe what some issues could be? Anything thanks

Ranger 500 vs. 570?; and, Power Steering?
I'm buying a new Ranger and am undecided on two things - would greatly appreciate advice:
Decision 1: Should I get the 500 or 570? I don't think I'll use the higher top end speed of the 570 - any other reasons to pay up for it?
Decision 2: Should I get the electronic power steering or not?
Background: About 65% of the use will be as a utility vehicle around my property. Landscaping, managing firewood, hauling rocks (turf, wooded area, brook, etc.). About 35% will be joy riding on local trails (through woods and pastures, nothing too extreme, some stream crossing, some steep terrain, etc...).
Really appreciate anyone's advise!

Front end locker (TorQ)
Does anyone have any experience with the TorQ front differential locker? It seems to be reasonably priced and better build quality than the spartan locker for 1200. I've always wanted to be able to lock the diff like my old brute force but when I was looking years ago it seemed the only option was to put a 2012 or need "Q" visco lock from a power steering outlander. This seems like the detroit truetrac I have in my wrangler. Any info appreciated. It'd be nice if we could do a group buy on these if they do check out.

no spark – trying to solve
I am looking for the electrical diagram for a 04 sportsman 400. Have no spark. Wondering what the ohms reading is supposed to be for the stator, coil and pulse coil. Would anyone have those numbers?
Polaris right side heat fix!
Hey everybody,
Some good news came today from Polaris. I have the 2016 570 Sportsman with the right leg warmer package. Polaris sent me a card saying there is now a close off kit for the right side heat problem.
The back of the card basically states that is is not mandatory to have this done, however you have to decide before December 31, 2018. Also says it takes 1 hour for the dealer to install. I tried to enclose a picture with the phone number so everybody can bombard Polaris with requests for this kit.
