I have an 2004 Polaris Sportsman 700 twin and it will start in gear without breaks being depressed. Having hard time finding if this model has an gear selector interlock to prevent that from happening and where it would be located.


Thank you for any helpful response.

Has anyone else ever noticed or has an issue with their digital display flashing on after the bike is off? I was out riding last night and stopping often enough when i noticed the 3 buttons under the display (up menu down) would flash on, either in red or blue every so often, say every 5 minutes. My bikes never been swamped, it is worth saying that my battery has been a piece of crap since day one, wont turn the bike over sometimes so i have to turn the key off and retry. This year has been alot worst than before so i guess im looking into new battery as well. Friday night it gave me a really hard time to start eventually got it going tho, then saturday night when i was climbing a snowy hill i had the tires spinning to make it up the hill, once i got to the top it just died out of nowhere, i was still on the throttle when it quit. Started right back up but it seems like theres some ghosts with this bike. Then once we got to our destination thats when i discovered the lights and it did it for the next 3 stops.

Im no longer in warranty so dealer diagnose isnt ideal however if i have to i will.

Thanks guys!

Please give me advise on how I can get my seat to catch both latches on the front of the seat. Very frustrating

Hello;
I have a 2016 polaris 570sp sportsman touring.
I have 2000 miles on it, I have 2 fuel pumps replaced. Thanks for buying the extended warranty.
I bought new Big Horn Tires. Beware the 26-10-14 tires do not work on the touring. The tire hits the support bar for the running board on the right side.

I also have a very frustrating problem putting the seat back on. I have great difficulty getting both sides or the front of the seat to catch. Therefore having risk of loosing seat when trailering down the road.
Please reply with a solution on getting the seat back on easily. I find it very difficult and time consuming.

what is the torque for the ciutch bolts

Look at BRP and Amsoil 5w40 or 0w40?

Can a 250 trail boss trans work on a 325 my transmission is screwed up and grinds if I go too fast or ride rough and we have a transmission off of a 250 and I wasn’t sure if they were interchangeable

Hey could anyone help with tires. Have 30 Cryptids on my xmr and was thinking off installing ITP mud lite 2’s. Is this a good choice? Will they still perform well in mud. Found the Cryptids to be not so good on the trails and hill climbing. Any feed back would be great

Hello all. I just purchased my first quad/headache. It's a 2014 Sportsman 570 with a bad motor. Sooooo I'll be needing guidance, lol. Anyway, stoked to own one and can't wait to get it running. Hope everyone is having a dandy day.

I recently bought a couple calipers spec'd to a 98-02 Sportsman. I am adapting them to an independent project. My question is: why does each caliper have two lines to it. It appears that both lines supply both sides of the caliper and each has its own bleed valve.
