So the story I bought a 2015 sportsman ETX from local Honda/Polaris dealer... I got into fiance trouble, I filed chapter 7. Capitol One has the title won't release it to me... everyone I talk to gives me the run around. So I told them okay then you don't want it, you're not picking it up, you're telling me just keep it? Then can I get the title, nope, they want me to jump through hoops and everyone I talk to there just tells me to talk to someone else? Everyone seems clueless as to what to do they won't talk much but they won't give me the title??? Only things I have gotten outta them they don't bother with ATV collect after bankruptcy, they don't want it, its mine now enjoy, but they won't give me a title.

That said, IF I can't get the title... what then?? What's this thing worth it only has around 300 miles, great shape, winch was only used 1 time. It has mirrors, saddle bag, nice ATV but I assumed it was gone so I sold my trailer because my truck went back. Its just sitting in my yard hasn't be started in a year.

Just about done rebuilding this scrambler, I looked at the gear case oil and it’s purple and milky, milky to me means that it has water in it and the previous owner didn’t have a vent line hooked up, been looking or this specific scrambler for tips online for what type of fluid and how much and I keep running into different machines, any help would be great. Thx

Last time i rode many 2 months ago it started right up like always and ran great went out today and it turns over but will not start, it has a full tank of gas, no codes pop up ? checked the spark plugs and i have spark, I checked all fuses and they are fine so it must not be getting fuel ? or is it some other electrical thing ?

So I recently acquired a 2001 Scrambler 90 that was traded in for next to nothing non-running. I’ve run in to an issue and I’m stumped. The atv idles smooth but won’t take throttle and bogs. It stays running and will accelerate without any load (wheels off ground) but it bogs even with moving just it’s own weight. Carb cleaned (multiple times) and checked out - I even swapped with another carb I acquired and same symptoms. Stator checks out - checked gap on pickup. Tried running from a remote fuel tank to eliminate fuel supply issues - same symptoms. New plug. Low RPM tab was removed from CDI. Compression is solid (115) Looking for insight/ideas. Thanks!

Ok so my atv has had a small lope when on cold idle occasionaly if I blip the throttle when it's doing this it seems to clear up, no engine lights no driveability concerns. Do notice it does take a extra cranking when cold, I'm leaning towards a tps issue? Or an iac, And I'm really hoping not signs of a timing gear spun, I currently have 2900 miles and 189 hours,
Has anyone else experienced this?, once warm it runs just as it should,

In September of 2017 myself and two friends traveled to Cherry Creek NV. We loaded the quads, my 16 Sportsman Touring 1000, a 2000 Polairs Sportsman 500 and a 2002 Grizzly 600 and headed into the mountains.

We established a base camp on BLM land about five miles north and 4000 feet higher than the town. From there we made daily trips that included some private ranch lad (with permission), the Pony Express trail and established trails through BLM land.

We rode the Pony Express Trail out to Butte Station. Butte was a former PE station that had been overrun by Indians twice. There we sat under Juniper trees and watched three different groups of mustangs come into water at a natural spring.

Overall a great trip, we saw no other riders and the few local people we did see we very friendly.

I have a 1000 Highlifter and am thinking about getting a power commander which will remove the rev limiter at 7500 rpm. What is the redline for the regular 1000 or what rpm are you at when going 60mph?

Hi Group

My name is Paul, I am a mechanic (cars) but are starting to get a few bike through the shop Polaris is one brand.
I thought I would join up and learn a thing or two about them, I have a few issues now and then and I have found the
best place sometimes are forums to nut the issues out.

Cheers
