Posting for a friend, went riding and the bike turned off and would not restart. His buddy talked him into a complete rebuild of the engine. So now the new engine is back in the bike and now to find the original problem of why it shut off on him and wont restart. I have cleaned the fuse panel and unwrapped most of the wire loom to find a few broken wires and some hacking that has gone on in the past for winch and amp speakers and lights. I have repaired all I could see wrong even went out and bought a ecu, coil and stator from a exact year and size part out and still nothing. I have downloaded some of the manual on what it takes to start the bike and have put power to what needs it according to the manual and still nothing. Need help. Sorry for the long explanation.

Portable air compressor
Me again, I've been searching for portable air compressor threads , and didn't find much of what brand / model you guys are equipped with . I'm not brand loyal and doesn't have to be the fanciest from the market. I know old american saying " you get what you pay " / but also I'm not looking to spend hundred on pump that I might use once a year or once a 5 year. Looking for something that will fit in a front storage , and will not fall apart after first jump. So, what you have in your storage for portable air pump, what to stay away from, good and bad reviews , all are welcome... pictures friendly post [just have a mercy] :nerd
Also an idea of using CO2 bottles, if anyone have used them, please share your experience... what kit from where, and again reviews are always welcome ;-)
thanks in advance.

AMSOIL GNCC Racing ATV Highlights: Polaris Ace Powerline Park GNCC
The penultimate round of the 2017 AMSOIL Grand National Cross Country (GNCC) series, presented by Maxxis, an AMA National Championship, traveled to St. Clairsville, Ohio this weekend for the 17th annual Polaris Ace Powerline Park GNCC. The day started off with overcast skies, but quickly warmed up to a great day of racing where WFR/Yamaha/Maxxis/Fly Racing’s Walker Fowler took his 11th overall victory of the year breaking the record for most wins in a single season.

Axel fitment.
Hello. Just throwing my wheeler back together. Having a hard time getting the axle thru the hub. Can only get enough of it thru to get the nut on barely and definitely not enough turns to get the pin in.
I put my axle in the freezer in hopes it helps glide it in.
Any other ideas?

2008 Renegade Questions
Hi guys,
New to this forum but not new to the Can-Am game or riding in general. Had a few specific questions. I'm a senior in college, about to head to law school, and am working with a limited budget. I have had a few Renegades and several other machines, but I'm currently torn. My buddy got a new Scrambler 1000 and I'm catching hell trying to keep up in the woods. What I've learned, however, is that this is much more a function of handling and suspension than difference in power.
I've added Rox bars and risers, and this has helped with my rider comfort (I'm around 6'4"), but much is left to be done. I really need to replace the suspension, especially after riding XXCs with KYB and Fox. It appears Elka no longer makes the shocks for G1 renegades, but I'm still finding stage 1 and stage 3 on Ebay. For trail riding, albeit sometimes fast, what should I get? Is there another reputable shock company I should go with?
I've run Super ATV's power steering kit on a Sportsman and really liked it. What do y'all think about the kit, those that have used it with Can Am products?
OR should I just sell and try to find a factory XXC for $8,000+? I think I can get both power steering and a shock upgrade, spend less, and be fine. I'm not dissatisfied with the power, and I'm not turning this into a Scrambler or 1000r, just a more rideable machine. My machine is in pristine condition with 1100 miles; perfect plastics, etc.
Thanks again so much. I've always found forums for ATVs to be very helpful and there seems to be good insights here.

2007 700 code 61 only, no 12 or anything else
2007 Ranger 700 efi. Maintenance light on. when requesting maint codes it never sends a 12 (Start Diagnostic), just a single 61 (End of Diagnostic) and ends. Yet the maint indicator remains present. Ever see this before?
