CDI Problems
I have a 2000 Polaris magnum 500 that I've replaced the CDI box in twice now and it just "blew" again. It happens when I go in reverse - about when the rev limiter should kick in - the engine dies. The only way to get it back running is to disconnect the black "kill" wire and restart the engine. It runs fine with the wire disconnected but it won't shut off with the kill switch or the ignition key. It just keeps running. To shut the engine off - I have to reconnect the black kill wire and then it shuts off. It won't restart until I disconnect the wire again. Everything seems to operate - AWD switch, lights, etc. but I can't tell if the battery is charging. I don't know where to test for it. I've checked the VIN number and have made sure i'm buying the correct CDI box. On this second replacement, I also bought a new speedo and ignition switch in an attempt to rule out one of those items being the culprit. I'm getting pretty frustrated - can anyone help? Has anyone else had an issue with this?
A arms
Yes I’m thinking about putting 30 in zillas on my 13 850 wondering do I need to run arched a arms or just cut and trim the rear foot well a little ?

Plow Mount ??
Hi , Was wondering if anyone knew what Plow Mount this is for. I believe its for a Glacier II set up, but not sure. Thought someone out there might have the same one, and be able to identify it ... Thanks everyone !
New to Polaris ATV’s
Good Afternoon. I am new to Polaris ATV's and searching for a little information that participating in a forum like this always seems to bring.
Late last year I purchased a 2014 Touring 850 - it seems like a great machine. The unit I purchased was not equipped with a winch. Before going out for any serious fun / work I figured this would a must for a middle aged dude to have in place.
I recently ordered the appropriate 3500 Polaris kit (2880435) that was recommended on Polaris' website and I just received earlier in the week.
Here is where my problem starts - the instructions and all information on the web is indicating the wiring already being included in the factory wiring harness for both the handle bar switch and the small two pin connector at the winch. After inspecting my chassis very carefully, I am convinced this wiring in NOT in my factory harness.
I am certain many of you have installed factory winches before and perhaps have run into this situation. Any advice for this newbie would be greatly appreciated.
With Kindest Regards,
Fred

Hi or Low.
I recently purchased a 2009 outlander 500 MAX XT which had 180.7 miles on the bike when I picked it up. what gear is best to ride in ? I ride some small short trails near my home that can be anywhere from wet to completely dry depending on the time of year. I also do some riding on a somewhat hilly trail at my uncles house. I have a friend who has invited me up to his camp that has open trails as well as old logging trails, steep hills, mud/water crossings etc. So what gear is the right gear to use and when ?
front~~ to ~~ rear width ???
Im not sure how to ask this, but:
is there some kind of ratio of front width to rear width?
ie: 28x8x12 front to a 28x12x12
or
can you only go with a 2" difference front/rear?
any "general rule-of-thumb"

2002 Sportsman 500 HO No power??
Hey. Last night, went to crank my quad and it acted like the starter hung. It wouldn't turn over and I couldn't pull start it.
Finally I was able to pull start it and it fired up, but then the lights flickered and the speedo needle was moving all over the place. Then the lights stopped flickering, and it seemed to work ok, except no speedo at all. It's a new one by the way. The 4 WD was working.
When I turned it off after I loaded it, nothing. NO power at all. Even when running the winch wouldn't work.
I also need to know how to adjust the shifter. When I put it in low range, getting it back into neutral, reverse or high is a royal pain in the rear.
Thanks
