Just picked up a set of 26" Sedona Ripsaws for my 2013 Sportsman 550 2up. Any suggestions on a clutch kit to help offset the weight of the tires?

I have an 02 sportsman 700. Stock rear tires are 25x11x10. I would like to put mudlite 2's on but they only come in 25x10x12. Rims are 12x8 stock. I hoping someone else has dropped an 1" of width and noticed much difference if any ?
Thanks for any input.

Hey guys I have a oil leak that seems to be coming from the plastic valve cover. My question is that Ive read to upgrade to the aluminum one off of ebay. Does anyone have a direct link of which one to use? Or is there a better option? Do I just put a new o ring on the plastic one and hope it seals back up? Thanks in advance.

Brand new to the forum! This is my first post. This is a great forum with a wealth of knowledge! I'm really hoping someone can help. I need to get my awd to work. I don't need the speedometer and I really don't want to purchase a new speedometer for $350-400 just to get my awd working. Here's the issue:

I have '02 Polaris Sportsman 700. The speedometer cluster had to be disconnected. In doing so, I read on this forum, that the awd will no longer work because it goes through the speedometer. I researched on the forum and found the AWD Bypass fix/hack. I thought that was my silver bullet. I spliced in a ground wire to the brown white striped wire (circled in yellow in the pic). I turned the ignition key and nothing. It would not start up or turn over. It was completely dead. I removed the bypass and it started right up.

Does anyone understand why this would happen? If this isn't the right fix what can I do to get my awd working?

I've attached some pics of the '02 - '03 actual wiring, the schematic and the awd troubleshooting process flows from the service manual. I'm hoping this might help someone else facing this or a similar issue.

fyi...I disconnected the speedometer cluster because water got into it and it was going hay wire. It was flickering and flashing. However, the interesting part is there were short period of times when it did work correctly and the AWD light would turn on. Based on that and the AWD was working fine before the speedometer issue, I could be wrong but I don't think there's an issue with the AWD switch or light.

Thanks!

hello what experiences you have the XT shocks, my xt is ordered and should come next week 🙂



actually I wanted to buy the xtp but they do not exist in Europe, that's why I bought the xt Hd10 without trial and I'm looking forward to finally testing them on the country roads and terrain.


I know that the xt has very bad shocks in the ATV, most of you build shocks after a short time, how is it with the Defender xt?


I think I will also rebuild the Shocks, as soon as I find suitable offers, has someone here already rebuilt some?

Greetings from Germany

newbie here;

Been lurking here :nerd as it threw out it's first code yesterday and I wanted to know what it was :gruebel:, figured it out on this site. Also wanted to do maintanance on it and wasn't about to buy polaris oil, not gonna happen at that price! :shock: Found out what people are using on here. I found this site to be very informative and I appreciate that and the knowledge of people on here is outstanding :applaus: of course :postpic: so I posted.
