Elka Stage 4 issue

Hi All, I was spinning the adjustment down on my shock and it started to skip back up like threads were stripped, Quad is on jack so no pressure on them. Wondering if anyone else has experienced this? Prob just have to compress the spring manually and figure out how to get that ring below the messed up threads.

2015 Can Am 1000 or 800 differences

I bought a 2015 Can am 1000, (I think) That is what was advertised. It has 1000 on the Hood.... Only place it says 1000. How do I tell the difference? Can the 800 hood be replaced with the 1000? I dont have the "fancy" instrument panel thats analog and digital. Its all digital and smaller than the bigger one I see on all the videos.. The title doesnt designate 800 or 1000. They both look incredibly alike with the tires and interior. Thanks for your help

2005 800 noise

I've read a few posts about the "sportsman knock", just curious if mine is just that, or I've got bigger issues. I'll attach a link for the video as soon as I get it loaded.

2018 XMR Rear Diff Opinions

Hey guys. I’m new to the forum but have been riding for years. I just picked up a 2018 Outlander 1000 XMR. My previous was a 2013 1000 Limited. I’m in the process of installing a QSC primary and STM secondary as well as exhaust and an ECU tune. My 2013 was stock so I have no experience with the upgrades. I’ve read about some having issues with the rear differentials (and see quite a few after market builds) and was wondering if y’all thought it was worth it to upgrade? I am an aggressive rider and go on long treks. Destroying a diff on a trip would be a real bad experience I’d rather avoid. I appreciate any insight anyone has.

Ngk spark plug.

Hey guys I picked up a new spark plug for 2015 Sportsman 570 at my local auto store today. But I’m not sure weather it’s the right one. It’s hard to find info on them. I got a NGK Iridium IX CR8EIX 4218. Is this the right one and what’s the gap supposed to be. Cheers guys

SPortsman 1000 issues

I have a 2015 sportsman xp 1000. The problem I am having is at after a second or two at WOT I loose electrical power. ( engine running fine). EPS light comes on and loose power steering, headlights and dash lights go out too. Let go the gas and all is fine everything starts working again. Any ideas on what could be causing this? Thanks.

Wheel adapters needed

So I put ITP Mudlites on my 570 and the inside of the front tires rub a little bit. I want to buy 1" wheel spacers. I know polaris hasn't changed their bolt pattern in years. My rims are Stock and I would like spacers on all four wheels. Anyone have any good preferences??

electrical problem 1994 sportsman

posted in the model specific forum but thought I might have better luck here.

so I picked up a 1994 sportsman 400 4x4 2 stroke ran great other than it didn't have a battery and the 4x4 wasn't engaging. I put a new battery in it and started it up. it was running rough and would bog down and back fire if I tried giving it gas. I figured it had a fuel issue or needed a spark plug went through all of that and still had the same issue. for the hell of it I decided to disconnect the battery and use the pull start. it fired right up and ran perfect. reconnect the battery and it has the same problems. I did double check to make sure it was hooked up properly. any ideas on where to go with it would a bad cdi or rev limiter cause this problem? I have a fair amount of experience with 2 strokes and mainly Honda and Yamaha atvs but this is the first one I have had this kind of issue with. any help would be appreciated.
