I now have u joints ordered and looked at removing the rear drive shaft. It appears even after removing the Rool pin on the transmission side it won't slide either way far enough to be removed? Is there a trick anyone can help me with. Thanks by the way it is a 700 efi
Two questions on ’17 Sporty 850 SP
1) What rim and bolt pattern do I want for a 14" rim, to keep the stock size, but give it a 2" offset per rim, for a 4" wider stance? I did that on my 570 and the wider stance was very nice in the turns, giving it a more planted and less "tippy" feeling in fast turns... Would new offset rims be the best way to do this, or should I get spacers? I don't need fancy rims, I don't care about bling... they get all scratched and banged up anyways... Just want the quad to be a bit wider at the wheels and more stable at higher speeds...
2) How does one slow down the EPS at speed? I love the power steering when stopped or doing slow technical stuff, but when you are ripping down an open trail at 45mph+ the EPS makes the bike very sensitive and twitchy. Being electronic, I would have expected that the ECU would keep the amount of EPS proportional to the speed, but it doesn't feel that way... Is there a workaround? One thing I have considered is finding a way to fit a steering damper, like you would use on a street bike... Thoughts?

Ranger XP 700 EFI
Went to start my UTV after sitting a while, runs rough, wont idle, suspect bad fuel and maybe condensation in fuel. Drained tank, added startron and fresh fuel. Can I just keep running it through until it cleans itself out with out causing damage? Any other additive suggestions to speed up process?? Just had full service 6 months ago...

Looking at CST Wild Thang in 28″ Scrambler 850
I am looking at upgrading my tires.
I have 26x9 and 26x11 Bearclaw HTR for the last three years. I am starting to do deeper mudding now.
I am looking at CST Wild Thang 28x9 and 28x11. They will be on my 14 inch rim which is 5x2 offset.
I should be able to run there no problem correct? I was wondering if there will be wobble at high speeds? On hardback will I be limited?
ME this past weekend lol.....I need waders......

99 Sportsman 500 no spark
So to test my no spark condition, I have disconnected the kill switch wire (Black from cdi), tested 98.1 ohms and no grounds on pulse coil, stator tested about 13.8 ohms (red to black/red if I remember correctly), no grounds on stator. Stator resistance seems low, should I go ahead and plan on pulling it? IGN coil to ground tested .02 ohms.... have not yet tested primary and secondaries on ign coil. What other steps can I check and are there and ignition system fuses?
