Hi guys, so after work today. I decided to work on my 04.5 sportsman 500 and do a oil change. I got under the bike and noticed a wet spot on the bottom of the frame near the transmission. I looked around and noticed it was leaking from a hole in the transmission about quarter inch diameter. The thing is, it looks like the hole was always there since like it was apart of the design. It's on the left side under the clutch housing. It's a very slow leak. I took a few pictures. Let me know what you think. It actually looks like a weep hole.
2010 850efi no power on dash
Hello all, new comer here. I have a 2010 850 efi. I just changed the battery and now no power anywhere. all cables are hooked up, kill switch in run, even moved it back and forth a bunch of times. battery has 13v. I've even kicked the tires but nothing. I've read all the threads that seems to be relevant but no luck so far.
Deluxe Fairing and Cup Holders
What is the best mug/bottle to use with cup holders on the deluxe fairing? Everything I try won’t stay in holder after a bump or two. I’ve tried a can with neoprene cozy on it and still quite loose. Any recommendations or a way to improve them?

Best Deal on Rear Storage Box?
Looking for the rear Polaris storage box that fits a 2016 for less than $270. The best deal I've found so far is through my dealer and only because of my 10% discount for buying my machine there. $300 for the box and an additional $130 for the backrest is outrageous.
What's the best deal you guys have found for either?

wondering where this connects to?
Hey everybody, new to the polaris world and have a question about my 2012 sportsman 500 ho. after some heavy trail riding last weekend, came home and was cleaning her up and noticed this drip tube attached to some sort of electrical casing and wire.
It runs behind the battery but never noticed it before. anyone know where it connects to. possibly the solenoid? it runs and starts fine just want to put back where it goes. Thanks Bill

2009 Sportsman 800 4×4 doesn’t work in reverse, but works in L and H
Hey All,
I'll start out with I've seen other threads about this issue, but none of them have a solution for my machine. So I'm starting another one in the hopes somebody somewhere has found a solution to this problem.
Some background information as to what I have tested and replaced:
1. I have tested every electrical connection and component associated with this system and all are in good working order. The coil resistance meets spec., the coil magnetizes when 12v are directly applied.
2. The connection from the override button is good, when pressed, 12v is sent to the coil and the speedo shows the wheeler is in 4 wheel drive. Checked with a DVOM.
3. The halleffect sensor on the front hub tested good.
4. The roll cage/sprague carrier was replaced yesterday. So the diff was fully cleaned and fluids are new.
5. Armature plate looked to be in good condition when inspected while the diff was apart.
So after all the electrical testing and replacing the broken Sprague carrier, reassembling the wheeler and testing it. The 4 wheel drive or AWD, whatever you prefer to call it, works fine in High and Low gear, but still does not engage in reverse.
At this point I am stumped, not sure what to test next or what the issue is since it works in High and Low and not in reverse. Any and all suggestions are appreciated. I just want to get the damn thing working again.
Also it stopped working in April while plowing the heavy late snow we had here in Minnesota. Not sure if that's helpful in finding a solution, just putting it our there.
Thanks in advance,
Chris

Maverick Trail 800
I'm considering purchasing an 800 Maverick Trail with power steering. What is top speed?
I have a pickup truck with a 6'9" box. Is it possible to load a Maverick Trail into the box with the tailgate down of course.
