Looking for recommendations on HID light kits for Outlander headlight upgrades.
New guy from Peterborough, Ontario
Hi folks, I am the new owner of a 2013 Polaris Sportsman 400 H.O. (green). Happy to be here. I love the info sharing on forums. I am not an experienced ATVer, by the way. Looking to learn.
Main fuse blows
I’ve got a 2013 sportsman 500 ho and when I turn the key to start it the main fuse blows like a flash bulb. If I turn the key one click all the power works but when I turn it to start it the fuse blows. I can put in a good fuse turn the key to one click jump the solenoid and it starts up fine but I can’t start it with the key. My guess is I have a short in the ground? Does anyone have any idea what the problem is?
Bogging problem
Hey All,
So I'm dealing with probably something real simple but maybe now. My 98 300 xplorer when going through the puddles seems to bog a little losing some power but not stalling. As I get out of the puddle and it stops kicking up the water it goes back to normal. My first thought was an electrical problem, as they put the battery/solenoid in a really crappy spot right under the fender by the rear tire. The boots on the wires still look good, but who knows maybe I'm looking in the wrong spot.
Any ideas where to start appreciated.

Fan noise question
On my outlander 400, I got the noise that the radiator fan makes sometimes when it hits the shroud. I thought I read somewhere that guys were using washers to space the fan away from radiator, anyone got a link? I searched but couldn't find it.
Weekend Warrior
So I become the designated repair guy for my dad's machines and somehow inherited one of them. 1998 Polaris 300 Xplorer 4x4. His other one is a 1994 350L.
The 300 had a wrecked transmission when it was purchased, literally there was a hole in the bottom of it from the previous owners attempt to rock it out of a mud pit. 350 was a plow machine, so the a-arms were shot.
I joined up here for when I get stock on one of these project machines, because at this point lets face it they are gonna break and I've already broke em and fixed them :)

Starter Grinds; 2017 Sportsman 570
Hello group,
I searched thread and mostly came up with starter issues on older models.
I am wondering if there are any known issues with these. When I try to start, it will occasional "grind". If I retry it will catch and start. The grinding has been getting worse to where I have to try a few times for it to catch and turn over. Another thing, mostly when cold if I give a slight amount of throttle, it will 'pop', die and simultaneously make a laud gear clashing noise as the motor comes to a stop. The 'clashing' when it dies and grinding when starting sound similar. Could they be related on this model ?
Thanks,
Axle

2017 sportsman 570 sp hunters edition issue.
Bought a brand new 2017 sportsman 570 sp hunters edition. In january 2017.
My first ride out i was told my back left wheel is way more camberd than the left.
When i brought it to the dealer they told me "it must be the way it was welded in the jigs, we cant find anything else wrong" and basically told me i had to live with it.
Well ive tried and its causing premature tire wear and it tracks off to the left when road riding. Not happy. Anyone else have this issue? Im debating contacting polaris directly
Thanks

Electric code problem
Ive asked in other discussions and didnt get much of an answer.
i have a 04 Sportsman 700 efi that was given to me as a basket case. I want to get it running rite before i sink a bunch of money into it. I have it running but need to adjust the throttle cable for it to run at a high idle. I installed new plugs, fuel pump, crank sensor and Reman. injectors.
theres a code 51 and ive read about all the wiring problems. Ive gone through the wiring and plugs, cleaned and made repairs and ohmed out the wires for grounding out.
Im not sure were to look further. Any ideas
Thanks
