Hi all: I find myself in a sort of a dilemma as I am ordering wheel adapter/spacers in one. # 1> I know the hubs front and rear are hub centric at 120 mm diameter. # 2> I assumed I had a bolt pattern on the rear of 110 mm, that is, until I pulled the front wheel and slipped it perfectly on the rear hub. I also assumed the front bolt pattern was 144 mm as I've read most places and now assumed that ALL FOUR are 4/144 ! My machinist said that 'others' tell him that it's 4/143 instead. I've gotten a rough measure at 144 but could it be 143??? I'm putting my money on 144 and I'm wondering why the REAR hubs are NOT 110 mm! I also read that the Baja and the Racer models also have the 4/144 front and 4/110 rear.

Question is is it 144 or 143 and a link for my machinist?? Also, why do I have matching rear hubs in 144 if I cannot find record of this? Just what DS 650 do I have?? It's suppose to be a standard model(or so they said it was).

Thanks so much for your help. Scott in Florida

Looking for fuel diagram for sportsman 600 ,2004 year fro fuel tank to fuel pump and to fuel valve with on ,off ,and reserve and to carb just making sure I get right:smile

I am finding myself frequently starting the engine in gear. The I dont think its in gear and rev it up and it rolls forward.

I was thinking something out to be easy to figure out, maybe using a relay off the gear indicator light?

Anyone done that? I don't want it to be able to crank over in gear. Since it has a neutral light, wire it into a relay to the starter relay.

So when neutral is on, the power to the light also closes a small relay connected to the starting relay.

So I got the full set on a black Friday deal, went to install today and run into the rivet issue for the foot well side pieces, who the hell has a rivet gun? Can anybody point me in the direction of a decent one they have used?

I read all about guys having all kinds of trouble with these things.

Also I have a front hitch reciever on mine, it looks like I wont be able to use it, has anyone else installed the front plate with a front hitch reciever?

Giving my 2001 500 Sportsman a valve adjustment. First, it’s due. Second, hoping it’s solves my decompression lock up problem. Directions I found state to remove the gas tank. I’m not able to find directions as to what needs to be removed to get that point. I’m trying to avoid unneeded removal. I have the side panels off and can see both sides of the valve cover but can’t get my hands in to remove the valve cover, much less a feeler gauge. Does. The front rack need to come off to get the shroud surrounding the gas tank off?

TIA

Can some with a 2019 Outlander 850 or 1000 tell me if there is some coolant
in the water pump tubing, mine have 700km and there is a little bit of coolant in the tube

I know if there is coolant in the tube it's because of the water pump seal, just want to know if it's somewhat "normal" because the engine is new

thanks!

My 2015 sportsman 570 Touring keeps dying after a little bit of riding and the engine light turns on. Then I can shut the key off and it starts right back up then it will go for a little but longer. I tried draining the tank and putting new gas in and that didnt help.

Bought used 2005 Sportsman 500 HO and speedo doesn’t work which is fine. We have had it parked outside for six months not covered. Lights worked then but now both high n low do not. I have it covered now but have had no luck getting them to work. Bulbs are fine. Appreciate any help and have come up empty on researching.
