I picked up this 99 500 4x4 and started going through everything. The moment the key is turned on the fan comes on and runs the battery down. I've replace the stator and flywheel, The thermostat ending unit on the side of the motor. I've replace the regulator and the cdi box with an RMStator cdi box. THE FAN STILL RUNS... I've checked the water pump and it's fine. Is it time to replace the ECM??? Trying to get this thing as dependable as possible. Thanks

From my research it looks like I can only use the harness from an 08 525 S or 450. Please advise if you know any fitment options. Thanks

Guys Im looking at 2 different quads. One is a 09 550xp and the other is a 2011 550. Is there a difference between these? The older 550XP seems to have a all digital dash 2800 miles 290 hrs its in great shape. The 2011 550efi has 57 hrs and 624 miles. There is about a 1,000 difference in the price. WHATS THE DIFFERENCE? Ive searched and really cant seem to find anything.

Thanks

oh the 09 xp is a burgundy color but has shiny paint over a plastic look of the 2011

Looking forward to Memorial day weekend. Last summer I booked at camping cottage at little Pine state park for this coming memorial day weekend. I have never stayed there, or ridden the Nearby Tiadaghton State Forest Haneyville ATV Trail System. I am not counting on it by any means, but I am hoping it's somehow possible to ride from the Park to the trail system since they are so close. Some PA towns have gotten more friendly to atvs on local roads. Anybody been there lately? The info on the park website seems to indicated more than enough parking for my truck and trailer at the campsite. Any info greatly appreciated.

Hi All,

I am looking on getting a pair of Rigid D-Series Flood lights for my Sportsman. Any input from experience? Any other brands as good quality?

Thanks

Hey guys,

I just picked up a 2008 Sportsman 700 X2 EFI. It's in really good shape, but needs a couple of CV boots replaced. Thinking about doing that myself. This is my first ATV, so I'm looking forward to the learning experience and having fun with this thing. I bought it mainly to work around my place. I've got a big yard, so I want to get a sprayer setup for it.

Anyway, if anybody has any words of wisdom for me regarding maintenance and repairs, please share.
