Howdy, lots of reading but first time posting.

I bought a 2004 Sportsman 600 twin with only 50 hrs on it a while ago that was running really rough and with only the choke out. I stripped everything down, ended up buying a new Carb for it. I put everything back together with a new fuel filter, air filter, carb and plugs. it won't even start now!

Checked spark - Good
Checked fuel line - Good
Sprayed in quick start - Runs for a second!

So I read that the fuel pump really works off of back pressure from the air filter, so I tried covering the air intake and it draws gas in. Then I touch the throttle and bang it starts and runs for a second then dies.
I'm guessing that something is causing it to not have enough back pressure to draw the gas in? not 100% sure how the fuel pump works or where its located.

i have a 2016 850 xp with a factory installed polaris winch with electric stop as well. for a lil while the in wouldn't work. then a cpl weeks later the out stopped working as well. it doesn't click at all when trying the in/out button. seems to me no power to winch. so i tried jumper cables from the battery to winch and it arched/welded the jumper cables to the winch and battery.... i find it hard to believe the winch Is bad after minimal use? any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated. also i made sure it wasnt in freespool!!!

Curious what everyone is using to remove a days worth of mud and grime from your machines.
I am looking for the best spray on cleaners/degreasers out there that can be used once pressure washing the bulk of the mud off.
I've used and had some decent results with the typical 409 spray, but feel there has to be something better with new technology, or is there...?
I've seen some of the manufacturers out there now have a "Moto" line, but am I paying more for the same products found in other cleaners, or are you guys finding that these lines are in fact better?
Since I've requested info from the forum, I'll share a secret of mine. When washing white colored items such as the plastics on my Scrambler, I have found that pouring Bleach White in my soapy water works like a charm. I've used BW since I was a kid and have had great results. Since it is a bit harsh, following up with a polish is recommended.

Hoping for some help. My sportsman started killing as soon as I let off the throttle. It starts fine but if I don't continue to throttle it it dies. It does not sound like it's an adjustment in the linkagewhen it dies. There is no sputtering or any hesitation when it stops running. It sounds like it ty would if you turned the key off. Now an then.maybe 1.out of every 40 times it won't turn off immediately but that is very rare. Any advice is appreciated mich.

Hey guys,

I am debating on getting new tires for my quad as is everyone else. I want to run Blackwater evos but am between two sizes. I would like to run either 28x10R12 on all four corners or 27x11R12 rears and 27x9R12 fronts.

I would like to run the larger tires and i know i will need a clutch kit, no big deal.

The question is can i run the 28" tires on stock rims? Or will i need to purchase the same size rims all the way around?

Thanks in advance.

Getting to know the outlander. I had owned Hondas before but although they take you there, not with a smile on your face if you know what I mean.
While looking for a Rincon I came across an Outty 800 2013 with 80 miles. Owned by a lady that just rode it twice. This atv had not seen water nor mud.
Allegedly she had it serviced a couple times. The atv has 12 hrs on it.
I am thinking about changing engine and diff oils. Checked the dipstick and the oil looks brand new. Recommendations?
It is somewhat hard to shift. I’ve read about replacing the oneway bearing. Any thoughts?
Other than that the atv is brand new.

If you all know about places to ride near North Dallas let me know - other than Rocky Ridge.

Hey guys I got a 2017 sportsman 570 sp, looking into some bumpers for it. I found one I really liked and just wondering if anyone knew where it mounted or if it would bolt on no problem? I'm also a big fan of the bumper on the utility edition but I know that one needs some fab work, kind of between the two at this point since I don't like the other one polaris offers, and I'm not crazy on the atv guru bumpers.
