Hello there I am a first timer in Polaris world and have picked up a 2014 sportsman 400 HO. The story behind it was a farmer had gotten it for his kids to ride who hadn't taken too much care of it and ended up totally ruining the LH rear inner CV and the RH front outer CV. With this in mind I took it in some mud to test it out and the most I could get was the one good rear wheel to spin. I checked out quite a few videos to see how everything worked then got out the tools and checked the resistance to the Hilliard clutch coil (22ohms) the voltage to the plug (12v) and then took it back for another test and with the rear wheel spinning uselessly and the input shaft into the front diff turning it still did not turn the front wheels. My question is does anyone know where the ground of the coil runs back to (wondering if I have voltage to the coil but not a ground ) and question 2 there is another 2 wires to the awd switch that are black but have no voltage to them and no contact in the switch mechanism to connect them does anyone know what they're for.
One final question while I had it up on the the jack I turned the left wheel but that didn't turn the right wheel at the same time should it have done so or does that point to a broken cage ?

Hey everyone my names Nick and Im having pro lems locating a specific part for my 05 DS650, my Clutch lever release bracket BRP# 420248305 is cracked and no one seems to have one and Iv got probably 6k in this bad b*tch and can't ride it!!

So I took this new to me 2015 Sportsman Touring 850 XP on a trip to PA and rode an awesome place called mines and meadows, highly recommend. Problem is what I thought was a downhill decent switch doesnt seem to make a difference, when going down hill I always have to give it gas, a real PITA on a 5 hr ride.

Is this switch supposed to enable and disable this feature? If so it aint working.

Thanks for the help.

Just got an 18 DS 250 and would like to find ways to make it faster.

Saw these on Ebay, anyone use one of these and if so how did it work. Also, for CV Joints will any good Marine grade grease work?

I want to sell my 05 Sportsman 500 but do not know the value. This is a clean 500 with new tires, axel guards, Polaris winch and new battery.*Electric and pull start. Also has heated grips. Has a small tear is seat.*
Has about 1500miles and 170hrs. Recent oil change including axles.
Adult driven, nice machine. it can come with a snowplow.*
I use the plow on my 850 but it can hook up very easily to the 500 if someone wants it. If not whats it worth by itself.
thanks for your help. Jack
PS Its also the 50th anniversary edition, dont know what thats worth either?

I acquired a Polaris winch that is labeled that it is made by Warn. So I test the winch and it works fine. This winch was on a friends Razor 800 that it came with when they bought it. There's no markings on it aside from a serial number on the bottom of the mounting flange. It's grey in color and I was wondering if anyone has any info they could share on what its capacity or maybe a model number or perhaps a PDF owners manual link?

I am going to install it on my '98 Magnum 4x4 so I need to get a mount and wiring kit. I was thinking on getting the Warn Industries 63990 Winch Upgrade Kit to hook it up. Any cons about this wiring kit that anyone would care to comment on or suggest a better way to go for a wiring kit that has the contactor, switch and cables? Thanks for any suggestions.

I have a 2017 570 SP Touring that I am planning on putting on larger tires for more ground clearance. Has anyone made any modifications to the rear footrest bracket to accommodate larger tires? Pics please! My wife and I ride together often and need extra ground clearance.

My daughters 90 has been sitting for about 2 years. Went today and replaced carb and added a new battery. Went to crank and no power anywhere. I dont remember if the lights turn on from battery or when its running. Checked all connections and all look good. Pull ig switch out and did light tester and seemed good. Jumped one side of the starter solenoid to the other and it cranks. Also, the 2 smaller wires running to the solenoid light up with tester. Just the starter side does not. Also, if I test the wire from the push start button, its hot with a light tester and when I push the button, the tester almost completely goes dark. Any ideas?

so i have a 2007 sportsman 500 ho efi. last month i felt the belt start slipping a little so i replaced the original belt (1900 miles) with a factory Polaris belt of the same part number. well i got about 200 miles out of the new belt and it just shredded to bits. now I got a new belt (same exact one) and the wheeler tops out at 20mph, the rpms are wayy to high. driving ti with the clutch cover off it looks like the primary isn't closing all the way and the belt is about half way in the sheaves. but with the atv in park if i gas it the sheaves will close and belt will ride up at the top of the sheeves around 5,000rpm.

i have the clutch off and nothing really seems worn that bad. the bushings on the shaft seem to have a little side to side play but not that much, rollers seem smooth and free but do not have plastic spacers on the sides of them anymore. I also checked the secondary just by twisting the sheaves apart by hand and they spring back just fine.

what do you guys think i need to do here? full clutch rebuild? what are the main contributing factors in the clutch acting like this??

thanks in advance
